I agree to a large extent that Stalin's economic policies were detrimental to the USSR. This stand is made on the basis of impact. The economic policies that Stalin had implemented resulted in more harmful than beneficial impacts.
These policies were implemented so that the USSR could rapidly modernise and stay competitive. For example, in 1929, collectivization required farmers to pool their land and equipment and to work under the collective farm committee. This increased grain production enormously and introduced modern agriculture. Food supplies also became relatively stable. However, the price to pay was a famine from 1923 to 1933 that cost the lives of 5 million people. This was due to the fact that about only 10% of the produce was left to feed the farmers while 90% went to the state.
Hence, I agree to a large extent that Stalin's economic policies were detrimental to the USSR as the harmful impacts outweighed the beneficial impacts.
