  • The Second Five Year Plan, 1933-38
    • Changing nature of plan
      • Stressed electrification, transport, new industries, labour productivity and consumer goods
      • First 5YP produced skilled workers who helped the country
      • First 5YP no way of transporting goods which hindered process
    • Successes of 5YP
      • Transport-Moscow Metro 1935 and Volga Canal 1937
      • Consumer Goods-Bread rationing ended and production doubled
      • Labour productivity-Stakhanovite Movement provided incentives
      • Heavy industry-Steel and coal output trebled
      • Rearmament-spending rose to 7% of the countries GDP
    • Failures of 5YP
      • Housing-Many lacked basic things
      • Consumer Goods-Many had a poor diet so were lacking the things they needed
      • Quantity and quality-Still focused upon like in the first 5YP
