In the countryside, the socialization of the lands was partially adopted. Dividing assignments, the arable land was subdivided into sovkhozes (state farms) and kolkhozes (cooperative farms). Many peasants had their land appropriated by Stalin's government, which generated some conflicts in the countryside. Those who refused to surrender their land were either killed or deported to Siberia and Central Asia.

The intellectual and political sectors of the time had space only insofar as they agreed with Stalinist ideologies. In this way, Stalinism established itself with clearly dictatorial traits that contradicted the libertarian and egalitarian ideas of socialism.
