Stalin's 5 Year Plans & Collectivization

# data[].attributes.body
What were they? Stalin's 5 year plan was created to transform the USSR into an industrial power- moving from the old ways of agriculture into the new industrialization.
What were the goals?
The goal was to shift the Soviet Union into an industrial nation instead of agriculture, in order to 'catch up' to the western industrial countries.
What were the outcomes?
The outcomes enraged farmers that had their land and crops stolen from them. The outcomes were that millions of peasants starved to death (Ukraine). More outcomes also included the heavy growth of the industry in the 1930s, consumer goods being short in supply, plenty of factory jobs available and the overall cost of living was low.

Starting with the US, countries begin passing tariffs intending to protect their domestic economies.
How does this help create a GLOBAL depression?
-The Great Depression affected not only the US but other European countries. Due to their stock market crashing, Americans removed the money they were investing in German banks, which caused Germany to suffer from bank failures and preexisting inflation. Japan also suffered during this time period because their economy depended on foreign trade- which later caused them to cut down 50% of their exports.
