Tendinţe de adaptare a administraţiei săteşti din RSSM la modul de viaţă sovietic în perioada înfometării artificiale (1944-1947)

Abstract

In order to ensure the success of some transformations in the region, the Soviet authorities needed loyal cadres. Based on the criterion of loyalty, in the first years after the German-Soviet War, locals were appointed to leadership positions only at the village level. In this study we will refer to the behavior of the village administration and the attitude of the population towards it. In particular, we will focus on the ways of engaging in the Soviet way of life of the rural community, the comsomolitics and the members of the women's organization. The research was based on the testimonies of the survivors, the original documents from the National Archives of the Republic of Moldova, the archive of the social-political organizations of the Republic of Moldova and the literature. An informational support anchored in the realities of time offered us the press of the time, especially the newspapers „Socialist Moldova” and „The Soviet Peasant”.
