Soviet "Shock Worker" of the 11th Five Year Plan Award Pin

CA$10.00
sold out

We shouldn’t be SHOCKED that the Soviets made so many pins!

This pin was awarded to Soviet “Shock Workers” in the 11th set of 5 year plans (1981-1985). A “Shock Worker” was a worker who regularly surpassed the 5 year plan goals set out for them.

These 5 year plans were rife with cheating, hoarding and ultimately led to the economic collapse of the Soviet Command Economy. The 11th 5 Year Plan was a resounding failure with the later numbers likely being completely fudged. The first couple of years were in the low 60% growth against the required 90%, but somehow at the last minute hitting a 94% target. Hrmmm. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
