    The New Economic Policy, known as the NEP was an economic system used in the USSR 1921-1928. The NEP was introduced after war communism. This was because war communism involved kulaks and other peasants being forced to give up their crops in order to support the army, this in turn made them quite upset and angry which made them destroy crops. This meant that the growth of crops and food was falling back to 1913 standards and Lenin had to do something about it so he brought about the NEP. This was particularly good at the time as it allowed individuals the opportunity to make money and do well for themselves. But it was unpopular to many communists.…

    Another reason for the unpopularity of the NEP was the part it played in the agricultural sector of USSR. Agriculture was needed to boost the economy of the country and is one of the most important sources of income. The NEP rule does not allow agriculture being played to its potential. It does not provide sufficient support to transform USSR into an industrial…

    An aspect of the Soviet Union that changed between 1801 and 1939 was the shift of the government from a czar ruled totalitarian government to a more distributed communist government. In March of 1801, Paul I was killed and his son Alexander I of Russia was appointed the ruler. Czar Alexander I was not too harsh of a leader. He led a government that was not too strict upon its people unlike his father. But this changed when the next czar came into power, Nicholas I in 1825. Anybody who was leading or supporting the Decembrist Revolt was executed. Nicholas I undid everything that Alexander I did. He censored media, ran secret police, and exiled 150,000 people. Alexander II was the next one in power who was extremely different from Nicholas I. He freed the serfs but did not let them leave. But he did allot power to the people by creating local councils called Zemstvos to give them control of their land and women the right to vote. Alexander III went back into a strict totalitarian government, censoring media and deploying secret police. Alexander III also wanted all Russian minorities to speak Russian and convert to Russian Orthodox. Russian Jews were specifically targeted; they had to live in ghettos and eventually many Jews fled to the United States. The last of the czars in this time period, Nicholas II, came into power in 1894. A decade after his appointment, over three thousand workers grouped outside the czar’s palace asking for reforms. The czar was not home, but he still did not approve the order to fire at the protestors. In order to bring back his name, he enabled a national assembly called Duma that would allow the people of Russia to elect. As one of his reforms, he gave more land to…

    <br>Therefore, just like under any other totalitarian government, social, mental and economic freedoms are abolished in order to retain social stability. The government eliminated these freedoms by censoring art and religion, by predestining peoples' social caste prior their birth, and by controlling each individual's life with the introduction of conditioning.…

    Whether in a democratic, monarchical, or communist country censorship has an important role in contemporary society. Beginning in Ancient Greece, censorship took its hold on democracy. In today’s society, the term censorship is more often seen as a negative language; however, positive effects of censorship should also be considered. In recent years, censorship has evolved even further. Not only has it influenced the mindset of the people through books and newspapers, censorship has increased its channels and reached peoples’ thoughts through the vast media. With the influence of the media, censorship is often a word associated with negative images, such as suppression, iron curtain, and the control of thoughts. On the contrary, censorship has also been proven to protect the mind of the innocents. Therefore, it can be questioned if censorship should be allowed in our society.…

    Politically, Russia was in a lot of danger as a result of the 1905 revolutions, and there were strong divisions. This put major stress of the government to stabilise and calm down strong revolutionary groups. One of the major ways in which this was done, was through the introduction of the ‘Dumas’s’ the first was in 1906. The problem with this was having elected Dumas of any genuine legislative control, and was mainly controlled by the Tsar. It was dissolved after two months indicating it didn’t have any major success. Then by the second of the Dumas in 1907, there was a lot of opposition particularly towards Stolypins’ land programme. Disagreement lay within the Duma, as well as between the government and the Duma. However, it did have some affects regarding the aim of the regime. The number of Kadets seats was halved. However the SD’s and SR’s benefited quite substantially gaining 188 deputies.…

    One of Lenin’s first challenges after taking power was the fact of the Constituent Assembly elections. The Constituent Assembly was in theory to be the sovereign decision-making body in Russia and possessed more legitimacy than Lenin’s Council of the People’s Commissars.

    From the blurred images on TV to the beeped out words on the radio, censorship can be seen everywhere. It can be defined as the act or practice of suppressing material deemed objectionable on moral, political, military, or other grounds. Censorship has been around for decades and has been done by various groups, such as the government, religious groups, corporations, or the mass media. Censorship is also seen in every country and each of them may have its own guidelines in regards to censorship. There are multiple reasons for censoring, such as to prevent state or government secrets from being leaked, to prevent falsification of scientific research, and many others. While many believe that censorship is necessary for the good of the people, other feel that censorship is wrong and that it restricts people’s freedom of speech and expression. Everything that undergoes a form of censorship falls into a certain category of censorship.…
