Formation of a mechanism for ensuring the viability of the territory at the initial stage of socialist construction in Ural (1921–1923)

One of the purposes of historical economics is to illustrate economic theory. At present, within the framework of the regional economy, the concept of territorial resilience is being developed. This article illustrates the process of formation of a new post-revolutionary economic mechanism, in particular, the establishment of work on monitoring and planning the economy of the Urals in the first years after the end of the Civil War. The specifics of the activities of the Yekaterinburg Provincial Council of National Economy and the Yekaterinburg Provincial Economic Conference, as well as the Ural Regional Economic Council, in the context of the transition to the new economic policy are noted. It is concluded that, despite the lack of experience, the economic management bodies of the province were able to ensure the viability of the territory and contributed to the formation of a single industrial complex of the Urals.
