ESTABLISHMENT OF THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY OF THE WESTERN REGIONS OF UKRAINIANSSR BY THE EXAMPLE OF IVANO-FRANKIVSK REGION

Abstract

The article describes the changes that have taken place due to the industrialization of the western regions of the Ukrainian SSR on the example of the Ivano-Frankivsk region and its associated urbanization. It was proved that the state’s economic policy consisted primarily in the provision of production capacities in the region, and subsequently, on a residual basis i.e. the construction of housing and infrastructure for the maintenance of factories and plants by the local population. Successful work achieved significant results. Builders, like other specialists of the Soviet planned economy, were forced to «listen» to systematic critical remarks addressed to them at party meetings, conferences, plenums, congresses.
