Five-Year Plan
5개년 계획
A system of centralized directive economic planning in the USSR that set national development targets in five-year cycles. Drafted by Gosplan under Communist Party directives, thirteen five-year plans were implemented from 1928 until the Soviet Union's dissolution in 1991, with the first plan institutionalizing rapid heavy-industry industrialization. The model was later adopted by other socialist states including China and Cuba.
