collectivisation
State seizes private farms
Collectivisation is the process of consolidating individual holdings into collective or state ownership, especially agricultural land.
The term is most associated with Soviet policy under Stalin, when peasant farms were forcibly merged into collective farms (kolkhozes), resulting in widespread famine and millions of deaths.
The spelling with -s- is British; American English uses collectivization.
