Under Lenin, the government and economy were characterized by a transitional phase known as "War Communism," followed by the New Economic Policy (NEP), which allowed for some private enterprise and market mechanisms to revive the economy after the Russian Civil War. Unlike pure communism, which advocates for the complete abolition of private property and a classless society, Lenin's policies recognized the need for state control and limited capitalism to stabilize and grow the economy. This pragmatic approach aimed to balance socialist ideals with the practical realities of governing a war-torn nation.

Did Lenin favor or oppose war communism?

Lenin favored it, because he instituted it right after the October Revolution. War communism did not impose full socialism or communism on all aspects of Russia's economy. The Bolsheviks were simply too weak in numbers to immediately govern the entire economy of Russia with its millions of peasant farmers. Nor were they able to take full control of all the factories and other industry in the country. When the Russian Civil War broke out, the Bolsheviks were even less able to handle the economic demands of fighting the war. For this reason, war communism was instituted by Lenin in order to enable the Bolsheviks to survive the Civil War in power. War communism was later scrapped in favor of Lenin's New Economic Policy.
