Abstract
This paper describes the main trends of the Russian economy
through the Great War (1914 to 1917), Civil War (1918 to 1921), and postwar
famine (1921 to 1922) for the general reader. During its Great War
mobilization the Russian economy declined, but no more than other
continental economies under similar pressures. In contrast, the Civil War
inflicted the greatest economic trauma that Russians suffered in the course
of the twentieth century. The paper identifies the main shocks in each period
evaluates the relative contributions of circumstances and policy, and sums up
their historical significance.
