What was Lenin's program for restoring the Soviet Union's economy?

In: Russian History, Lenin, Communism [Edit categories]

Answer:

Lenin's program was called the New Economic Policy.

The NEP restored some aspects of capitalism on a temporary basis. Small businesses (under 10 workers) were allowed to operate for personal profit and peasant farmers were allowed to work their land and keep their produce subject to paying a tax to the government. Hard-line Communists disliked the plan feeling that it betrayed the ideals of the Revolution to eliminate capitalism.
