SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL SITUATION IN THE AZERBAIJAN SSR IN 1945-1969

Abstract

World War II caused both economic and political backwardness in Azerbaijan. The involvement of the economic and industrial products produced in Azerbaijan into the army led to the worsening of the internal situation. During this period, the worship of Stalin's personality was widespread. People who tried to express their words in an open form were constantly persecuted and punished. This period is remembered by the expulsion of Azerbaijanis from their native land.

World War II had a significant negative impact on the culture and economy of Azerbaijan, as in other countries. Some areas of the economy have collapsed and are in recession. Some sectors of the economy collapsed and went into recession. Although some progress was made in the economy of the Azerbaijan SSR in the 1950s and 1960s, the negative processes existing in the national economy deepened, and the economic reforms carried out by the state were ineffective. In 1948, for the first time in the world, oil-field supports were built in the sea. On November 7, 1949, the first offshore oil well hit the fountain in the oil fields. New Baku Oil Refinery was built in 1950-1960, and gas processing plants were built in 1961. Chemical, pipe rolling, and synthetic rubber factories were commissioned in Sumgait. In 1945-1950, 7 heat and water power plants were built in the country. In 1954, Absheron DRES (State Electric Power Station) and Mingachevir Hydroelectric Power Station, iron ore processing plant in Dashkasan were commissioned. In 1951, the Garadag cement plant was commissioned. In 1958-1966, a cable was launched in Mingachevir, a steel processing, refrigerator and tire plant in Baku, a superphosphate and chemical plant in Sumgait, and an aluminum plant in Ganja.
