The division into two arbitrary periods may give the appearance of sudden change to what were actually continuous trends in the Soviet economy; nevertheless, fo…

The New Soviet Two-Year Plan
For the second time in five years, the Russian planners have abandoned a national plan in mid-course in order to substitute a new program which reflects changed priorities and makes less rigorous demands on the country's economic resources.
