- 요약Why do authoritarian regimes build and provide progressive public goods? Why did communist colonialism fail to emancipate women and labor in Eurasia yet succeed in mobilizing them? And more broadly, what legacies did communist colonial policies produce in politics, development and gender outcomes? This manuscript investigates these puzzles across a period stretching from the late 19th century to the first quarter of the 21st century.I begin by demonstrating that communism in Eurasia functioned as a colonial regime. I compare it to the global cases of colonialism and colonial institutions. I demonstrate that communists settled their colonies with people from the metropole's core territories at higher rates than under the Russian Empire and employed more non-indigenous bureaucrats in key positions. The Kremlin classified ethnic groups into "culturally backward" and "advanced" categories; Asian, Muslim, and Turkic populations were uniformly coded as "backward" and assigned agricultural development path that required extensive forced labor mobilization. This resulted in distinctive political economic strategies to mobilize women's labor and build state institutions.Then, Chapter 2 presents an original theory of the state patriarchy, a product of communist colonialism, and describes the main outcome variables: development, state presence, political participation, and women's outcomes. In Chapter 3, I provide evidence on the social and labor issues, as well as their interactions, by performing quantitative content analysis on 12,000 communist party and government files. My analysis demonstrates that political economy issues were more accentuated than the gender ones, and that the communist ideology is neither the only nor a sufficient predictor for authoritarian progressive politics. I then investigate the dynamic evolution of labor extraction and public goods provision in Eurasia based on original archival research and findings. I introduce to the literature the General Cotton Committee, a communist state-owned monopolistic enterprise with concessionary privileges (Chapter 4) and the Committee on the Betterment of Livelihoods for Working Women, a communist "missionary" targeting women (Chapter 5) with welfare in exchange for labor that met the state's goals. Both operated only in the territories coded as "culturally backward" under communist control.How did the communists manage fiscal redistribution and state investments in "culturally backward" territories when compared to other units? I explore this question in Chapter 6 with more original archival research. Chapters 7 and 9 analyze original fieldwork findings from six countries: Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. I do so by giving voice to older adults, mostly female, who experienced communist colonial institutions between the 1950 to 1990. For this purpose, I analyze 190 oral history interviews, together with original statistical data at micro-district level from Uzbekistan-Central Asia's most populous country. The interviews provide rich evidence to describe how communist policies created an extractive and gendered labor regime. This labor regime adversely affected social mobility, human development, and trust, while reinforcing gendered attitudes and behavior and disadvantaging Asian ethnic groups and territories. In contrast, industrialization in Ukraine, which was slower and less prominent in territories coded as "culturally backward," provided protections through alternative welfare and labor regimes that partially substituted the central state's institutions.In Chapters 8 and 10, I compare women's outcomes for agriculturally active territories in five "culturally backward"-coded countries that were assigned agricultural development path to four "culturally advanced"-coded countries that were assigned industrial development path (n=10,000). Unlike "culturally backward" territories, European territories did not experience communist social colonization targeting women. To fine tune my analysis, I explore original survey and administrative micro-district-level data from Uzbekistan (n=9,423) and adjust large household panel surveys by the location's fitness for agricultural forced labor. I find that the areas that were coded as "culturally backward" and therefore followed "agricultural path" with more gender-indiscriminate forced labor are today less prosperous, report less mass repressions while not seeing forced labor as "repression," showcase gender attitudes and behavior that mirrors state-centric preferences over gender policy and have higher participation rates in authoritarian state institutions. I conclude with a summary of findings and my theory's implications for social sciences literature and other cases.This research demonstrates the ways in which studying communist experiences in Eurasia as part of colonial political economy of development that shaped authoritarianism and related institutions can benefit our understanding of the roots and consequences of present-day post-communist politics and societies. The theory of state patriarchy contributes new explanations to how authoritarian regimes build and maintain special regimes targeting women and mass labor mobilization, and how they increase pro-state political participation even under more oppression and less prosperity.
