Description:Stalinist industrialisation concentrated on the heavy and machine-building sectors, with the frank aim of strengthening defence capacity. However, the precise nature of the defence industry and military-industrial aspirations remained unknown until recently. Using the opened archives in Russia, this is the first study of the involvement of Red Army officials in the central planning organ, Gosplan. It links the military's vision of future war, formulated by the leading military theoretician Mikhail Tukhachevskii (1893-1937) in the theory of 'deep operations', with the investment patterns of the 5-year plans. On a regular basis and parallel to peacetime plans, Gosplan's Defence Sector, with its many military experts, formulated alternative plans for the event of war. These plans and mobiliz-ation requirements as specified for branches and individual enterprises show a new dimension of the pre-war Soviet economy, and give a background to the wartime success of the Red Army despite its catastrophic setbacks in 1941.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
