Under Stalin, the Soviet economy was centrally controlled by the state, with significant power concentrated in the hands of the Communist Party. The government implemented a series of five-year plans aimed at rapid industrialization and collectivization of agriculture, which eliminated private ownership and aimed to increase production. The state dictated economic priorities, production targets, and resource allocation, effectively controlling all aspects of the economy to align with socialist principles.
Under a planned economy, all productive resources are government owned and controlled. This type of economy is also called a command economy.
A command economy is a system where the government controls economic activity and the production and distribution of goods. In a capitalist economy, such things are determined by market forces.
After the Russian Revolution, the country became increasingly centralized and authoritarian as Lenin and the Bolshevik Party subordinated the Soviets (the workers councils, or the true manifestation of worker's control over the means of production) under the power of a bureaucratic elite. After Lenin's death, Joseph Stalin went even further into turning the Soviet Union into a totalitarian nightmare.
A national central committee would oversee the operation of various major aspects of the economy such as agriculture, industry, finance, etc. according to a national plan called Gosplan. After that committee, other subcommittees make decisions within those areas on regional and local levels.
