Both the New Economic Plan (NEP) introduced by Lenin and the Five Year Plan implemented by Stalin aimed to rapidly industrialize the Soviet economy and boost production. While the NEP allowed for some degree of private enterprise to stimulate growth, Stalin's Five Year Plan focused on state control and centralized planning to achieve aggressive industrial and agricultural targets. Ultimately, both plans sought to transform the Soviet Union into a strong, self-sufficient socialist state capable of competing on the global stage.
