“…It may be said cautiously that on the quantitative and geographic scale, the pre-war population evacuation planning paled into insignificance as compared to the challenges presented by the real German invasion. Similar to the case of the industrial relocation plans (Stone 2005(Stone , p. 1061, Soviet strategists failed to calculate that so significant a part of the country might fall under the enemy's control. 2 It is noteworthy that during the war, Soviet authorities also tried to analyse the experience of Imperial Russia with respect to the population eviction from the threatened areas during the First World War (Kurtsev 1999, pp.…”

In the first year of the Soviet-German war, hundreds of thousands of Soviet citizens were evacuated to the North Caucasus. Many of them were Jewish women, children and old men who arrived independently in the region. Their evacuation created serious frictions with the local authorities and population with the newcomers often being protected by the central Soviet government. The latter came to welcome the arrival of these refugees in the North Caucasus, despite its initial reluctance to promote the evacuation of those whose contribution to the country's war effort was not direct.

Socialist planning played an enormous role in the economic and political history of the twentieth century. Beginning in the USSR it spread round the world. It influenced economic institutions and economic policy in countries as varied as Bulgaria, USA, China, Japan, India, Poland and France. How did it work? What were its weaknesses and strengths? What is its legacy for the twenty-first century? Now in its third edition, this textbook is fully updated to cover the findings of the period since the collapse of the USSR. It provides an overview of socialist planning, explains the underlying theory and its limitations, looks at its implementation in various sectors of the economy, and places developments in their historical context. A new chapter analyses how planning worked in the defence-industrial complex. This book is an ideal text for undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in comparative economic systems and twentieth-century economic history.
