kulak in Russian language means fist. So called them Russian people. Kulak means that their property, their money, he holds in his hand, not wanting to share with anyone, lives by oneself. Russky people centuries used to live in the community together to own agricultural land. Even when the Russian peasants were in a personal dependence on the nobles, they considered that the land belongs to them. Ultimately, the reluctance of the nobility to give arable land led to the revolution which resulted in the nobility had been destroyed as a social class. After the revolution, the land was given to the peasants. Some have successfully done business, some not. Those who become successful called kulak. They were the main producers of agricultural products. The main buyer was the state. When Stalin began the industrialization of the country, all the resources went into the construction industry, so the purchase prices have been set very low. In response kulak stopped selling grain to the state. This was in 1927 and 1928. Stalin understood that the kulak took him by the throat, they fail the plans of industrialization. In addition, Stalin knew that most people hate kulak. Then Stalin began to merge the peasants into collective farms, and the kulak evicted, after taking away their property. Many of the kulak were in labor camps, but mainly kulak fled to the cities and became workers. This policy supported the Russian people. This is consistent with the mentality of Russian peasants - Teamwork and moderation in the consumption of material goods. Stalin solved two problems - put under the control of agriculture and created tens of thousands of workers to the industry.

Who were the kulaks and why did they resist stalins economic plan?

Kulaks were relatively affluent farmers in Russia who owned larger plots of land and employed laborers. They resisted Stalin's economic plan, particularly collectivization, because it threatened their livelihoods and property rights, as the government sought to consolidate individual farms into collective ones. The kulaks viewed this as an attack on their autonomy and economic security, leading to widespread resistance, including sabotage and refusal to cooperate with state policies. This resistance was met with harsh repression by the Soviet regime.
