| Abstract: | This paper aims to analyse the introduction of Taylorism, understood as a capitalist way of production and labour management in the former Soviet Union (here as: S.U). The study's focus is on the changes occurring from 1917 to 1929. It is aimed at highlighting the factors influencing the introduction of Taylorism in the former S.U., especially the economic conditions, the characteristics of the proletariat (as a ruling social class) and the peasantry (as a dominant social class), the limitations of the ruling role of the Bolshevik party, the macroeconomic and industrialization policies. This trajectory needs to be understood as strongly related to the modernist values striving for predominance in the first socialist countries. |
