Mariais Wehner, The 1921-1922 famine in the province of Samara and the reaction of the Soviet government. Based mainly on material found in the Moscow archives, this article tells about the famine which took place in Russia and the Ukraine in 1921-1922 and in which five millions of persons died. The province of Samara in the Volga region which was badly affected by the famine is chosen as an example. Notwithstanding the drought and the Civil War, the Bolsheviks' agricultural policy during the years 1918-1921 was responsible for the extent of the disaster. The Soviet governement and the Party leaders rejected the demands concerning the confiscation of cereals coming from Samara. Their reaction came too late to avoid the catastrophy which was to fall on the country. For the government and the Party leaders supplying workers and city dwellers was more important than saving the rural population. And moreover the famine helped strengthen the Bolshevik power in crashing the peasants' resistance. In 1923, famine still affected a number of regions in the Soviet Union.
