In 1921, Lenin called for the legalization of private trade and manufacturing. This New Economic Policy (NEP) spawned many thousands of private entrepreneurs, dubbed Nepmen. This title examines where the Nepmen came from, their importance in the Soviet economy, and the consequences of their "liquidation" at the end of the 1920s.
