Sumario: | The article is devoted to the problem of reorganizing agriculture on a socialist basis – collective farm construction, in particular, the activities of local party and Soviet bodies and the opposition of the population. The chronological framework of the study is the 1930s. This is a period of tough socialist pressure in the agrarian sphere, when the old traditional institutions for the life of the peasantry were being replaced by fundamentally new ones - collective and state farms. The relevance of the study is due to the need to study the historical experience of interaction between the state as an institutional authority and government on a regional scale, and civil society (local population) in modern conditions of modernization and transition to a market economy. The article is based on a large amount of factual material state archives and documentation centers of the modern history of the Rostov Region and Krasnodar Territory. The materials of these archives made it possible at the local level to investigate the contradictory nature of the process of collective farm development, which consisted both in the crimes of the local authorities and in the sabotage of the population, both collective and individual farmers. It is concluded, that by the end of the 1930s collective farms had become a natural and effective form of life in the countryside, which played a significant role in ensuring victory in the Great Patriotic War. |
