The Great Depression was a severe economic depression between 1929 and 1939 that affected all market-based capitalist economies. It was predicted as early as February 1928 by the Central Committee of the CPUSA.[1] The USSR during this time experienced immense economic gains during this time, since rational planning took the place of market mechanisms.[2] Between 1929 to 1933, industrial production in the Soviet Union increased by 67% and wages doubled while unemployment dropped to 0%.[1]
