Evidence has shown that Stalin was not a savior of Russia by creating economic policies to help agriculture and also modernize Russia. Stalin's plan was to make Russia an industrial giant, so Stalin created the five-year plan for work on Russia's farms and factories. Stalin's Five Year Plans were a series of nationally centralized economic plans in the Soviet Union (Wikipedia). This meant that peasants who had no work had to work on a specific goal that Stalin had to increase what was considered a revival of the economy. The first five-year plan introduced in 1928, focused on the development of iron and steel, machine tools, electric power and transportation. Joseph Stalin set ambitious goals for the workers. He called for a 110% increase in coal production, a 200% increase in iron production and a 335% increase in electricity. He justified these demands by arguing that if rapid industrialization did not take place, the Soviet Union would not be able to defend itself from invasion by Western capitalist countries (John Simkin). So the peasants would have to work to increase the production of iron and steel, which could have been sold to boost the Russian economy but not for the benefit of these peasants. For the Second Five-Year Plan, Stalin expanded the objectives of his previous plan and placed emphasis on heavy industry. This plan aimed to advance the Soviet Union's communications systems, particularly the railways, which improved in both speed and reliability. The Second Five-Year Plan failed to reach the level of success of the previous plan, as it did not achieve expected production levels in the coal and oil industries. This plan incorporated new methods to increase production, including incentives, punishments, ... paper party ..., repression of the poor, persecution of people who were unaffiliated, and the leadership of the Reds. Extensive police surveillance, incarceration, widespread suspicion of saboteurs, and executions. During the Great Purge also known as the Great Terror, Stalin made sure that those who knew too much about the army purge and Stalin's critics were killed. Joseph Stalin struck fear into every Soviet by arresting and putting on trial critics of his policies of collectivization and treatment of peasants. Stalin ruled as dictator of the Soviet Union from 1932 until his death in 1957. (Ask.com) In conclusion, Stalin was not a savior for Russia. During his rule Stalin had the goal of improving the economy and creating a stronger army, but he created a dictator government where no one was able to express their opinion to improve Russia. So there for Stalin there was no savior for Russia.
