Julie Hessler looks at the history of Soviet trade from the October Revolution to the death of Stalin. During this time, property relations in Soviet society went through several fundamentally different stages, from war communism through the NEP to the Stalinist attempt to minimize the private sector of the economy. Each of these stages was accompanied by various challenges and tragedies, whether it was war or dispossession, and all this together influenced the consumer habits of Soviet citizens. The author shows the cyclical nature of the Soviet trade sector - from crisis to normalization - and demonstrates the relationship that developed between the official and unofficial markets of the USSR.
