A full-value ruble : the promise of prosperity in the postwar Soviet Union

Kristy Ironside

"Money did not become obsolete under Communism. The ruble remained a key feature of Soviet life. After World War II, money became an essential tool of the Soviet government. A strong ruble represented the nation's promise of future prosperity, but its failure to deliver improved purchasing power undermined popular confidence in Communism."
