The Hungarian Agricultural Miracle?: Sovietization and Americanization in a Communist Country (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781793634351)

This book examines Soviet agriculture in post-1945 Hungary. It demonstrates how the agrarian lobby, a development following the 1956 revolution, led to contact with the West which allowed for the creation of an effective agricultural system. The author argues that this 'Hungarian agricultural miracle, ' a hybrid of American technology and Soviet structures, was fundamental to the success of Hungarian collectivization.
