Question
How did the abolition of Serfdom promote industrialisation in Russia?
Solution
Abolition of Serfdom freed a large number of persons, who were then employed in the factories. Thus, it facilitated the industrialisation of the country. After the success of the Communist Revolution (1917) railways, workshops and factories were declared ‘national property’ and operated directly by the Government.
