The Third Russian Revolution of 1928-1929, often referred to as the "Great Break," marked a significant shift in the Soviet Union's economic policies under Joseph Stalin. It involved the rapid industrialization and collectivization of agriculture, aiming to transform the economy from agrarian to industrial. This period was characterized by harsh measures, including the forced consolidation of individual farms into collective farms, leading to widespread famine and suffering, particularly in Ukraine. The revolution signaled a move towards a totalitarian state and the abandonment of New Economic Policy (NEP) principles.
