Shortage of consumer goods

Waste and inefficiency

Use of enslaved laborers

The first Five-Year Plan implemented by Josef Stalin, from 1928–32, focused on developing and increasing heavy industry, as well as collectivizing agricultural production. Consumer goods were not the focus, and a shortage of basic consumer goods was a result. it was all about gearing up the Soviet Union for industrialization and military strength. Collectivization of agriculture was aimed at funding such projects. Unrealistic goals for industry were set also, which led to much waste and inefficiency, and indeed, many industrial accidents. Safety was not a priority.

Stalin also made much use of prisoners as forced labor. As pointed out by Edvard Radzinsky in his biography of Stalin (1996), Stalin ordered Vladimir Menzhinski, the chief of the Soviet Union's secret police, to create a framework that would use prisoners in work for the Five Year Plan. Prisoners sent to concentration camps as prisoners (who became forced laborers) included members of outlawed political parties, nationalists and priests.

The best options would be "shortage of consumer goods" and "waste andinefficiency," since in fact these plans led to rapid (but unsustainable) increases in industrial growth.

Which factors are considered when deciding how to make goods and services? Check all that apply. determining who has the greates
nirvana33 [79]

Goods and services are manufactured to satisfy the needs of potential consumers (the demand-side of the market). The different decisions made by the producers (the supply-side of the market), to define how to undertake the manufacturing process, are the following:

  • To produce items at a lower cost or higher quality ways to make the biggest profit. There are two ways of becoming the most attractive supplier to consumers in a market: either offering goods at the lowest cost or, even tough the goods are a bit expensive, making consumers appreciate them because of their outstanding quality.
  • Methods traditionally used to make a good. Of course the producer needs to consider the production methods available, traditional ones, and also innovative, as this latter ones will allow him to differentiate his output from the one of his competitors (by obtaining products with either best prices or best quality).

Why is external criticism so important when it comes to analyzing data?
julsineya [31]
External criticism is when historians check the validity of a source to verify whether or not it's authentic. 

This process is important regarding analyzing data, because we have to question whether or not we can trust the data and use it as a reference point.
