The Process of Collectivisation Violence

Europe-Asia Studies, 2013, vol. 65, issue 9, 1827-1847

Abstract: This article attempts to conceptualise violence, and to determine the value of that concept as a lens through which to understand the Soviet collectivisation drive and its legacy. The central claim is that objective violence, the very real experience of the collectivisation drive, becomes subjective violence as it is internalised over time. In the context of the process of collectivisation violence, the lines between victims and perpetrators were blurred in important ways. The end of the Soviet Union triggered a re-evaluation of the meaning of that violence which is still in a state of flux today.
