Cine y colectivización. Imágenes para un orden nuevo en los campos soviéticos (1929-1941) [Artículo evaluado por pares]

Abstract

From the analysis of eight Soviet films about rural collectivization filmed between 1927 and 1941 this article
reports a number of strategies and regularities in the representations that distinguish three specific periods that match the objectives of the Communist Party regarding of the rural economy. On the other hand, through moving images, it is identified the construction of a new symbolic order that expresses the
ideology of the Party under Stalin and that aims to peasants to adopt it as their own in order to build a
hegemony that legitimizes the new production relations installed in rural areas during the forced collectivization between 1929 and 1933.
