- Summary
- "State control of industry in Russia during the War was realized mainly through the regulation of the market, that is to say, through the regulation of commerce. The control of the market was the most effective method at the State's command for the regulation of industry. On the other hand, the State regulation of industry had a direct influence on the regulation of the market. Measures such as the control of prices, and the distribution of raw material, of fuel, and of finished articles were primarily measures of a commercial nature, but they had an influence on production, on its increase or decrease, extending their action to the whole of industry, whether working for military defense, or for the needs of the civil population. The present work, consequently, deals with both these aspects." --Author's foreword.
