The Socialist Transformation of the Azerbaijan SSR In the 1920-1930s
The Implementation of The New Economic Policy (NEP).
As the Soviet Russian policy of “war communism” caused strong dissatisfaction, in March 1921, Lenin’s the new doctrine, the New Economic Policy” (NEP), was adopted. Taking it as a basis, Azrevkom, on May 17, 1921, adopted a decree “On the Elimination of all forms of food monopoly.” According to this decree, it was declared transition to a new economic policy, the elimination of prodrastvetka throughout the country and the resolution on the freedom of trade. After the elimination of the prodrastvestka, in contrast to the Soviet Russia, in Azerbaijan, it was not immediately transferred to the prodnalog (food tax). Initially, at the initiative of N. Narimanov, each farmer in the Azerbaijani village was imposed voluntary tax in kind under the name chanag, which was 8 kg of grain (20 girvenke). On May 3, 1922, in the Azerbaijani village as food tax was introduced, which considerably eased the situation of the Azerbaijani peasant. After the payment of this tax farmer was free to dispose of the rest of the crop and make it to the market.
The Soviet government, in 1927, abandoned the NEP under the pretext of strengthening the position of private capital and the exploiters, and the danger that they pose to the State.
