Main article: Causes of the Holodomor
The reasons for the famine are a subject of scholarly and political debate. Some scholars suggested that the famine was a consequence of the economic problems associated with economic changes implemented during the period of Soviet industrialization.[9][10][16][17][39] However, it has been suggested by other historians that the Soviet leadership used the famine to attack Ukrainian nationalism and thus may fall under the legal definition of genocide.[8][9][10][11][12]

On August 7, 1932 a law came into force that stipulated that all food was state property and that mere possession of food was evidence of a crime.Among the most enthusiastic enforcers of the law were urban members of youth organizations, educated under the Soviet system, who fanned out into the countryside in order to prevent the "theft" of state property.27/11/10 2:02:36
