The study of issues related to the problems of separate republics functioning in the past is becoming more actual nowadays. On the basis of archive data the nationalization processes proceeding in the Kazan region in 1917-1921 are presented in the article. Special attention in the study is paid to the questions of nationalization on the state level and the reflection of these processes in the provinces. The conclusions have been made that in the conditions of internal complex issues (the general economic decline, caused by the first World War and revolutions, civil war), enlarged by unresolved manufacturing problems (the sabotage, lack of qualified personnel, raw materials, lack of discipline), to retain the power the Bolsheviks chose the centralized management which reflected in the processes of nationalization, confiscation and sequestration. In the process of nationalization of enterprises the two stages can be pointed out: the first period (late 1917-1918) was characterized by the slow rate nationalization of enterprises which was due to the weak power of the Bolshevik leadership and the threat from the White Guard forces and the second period (1919-1921) was characterized by the rapid rate of nationalization, advancing the average rate in the country. © IDOSI Publications, 2013.
