History of Distributism ~ Global Distributists: 4) Resurgence and Modern Distributism ~ 8.15 Russia

The twenty-eighth instalment of the series of articles from Global Distributists on the origins of Distributism and how it's been adapted and implemented around the world.


8.15 Russia

While Russia may not have a strong tradition of distributist policies, its recent Homestead Act, which provides land to citizens for free under the condition of developing it, can be seen as a form of land redistribution policy that aligns with distributist values. This policy aims to encourage rural development, promote self-sufficiency, and increase land ownership, potentially contributing to social and economic stability in the country.
