The '''New Economic Policy''', also know as NEP was announced by [[Vladimir Lenin]] in March 1921 in an attempt to restore trade and industry to [[Russia]]. The NEP permitted some [[capitalism]] to create incentives and it allowed for some foreign investment. Peasants were now able to sell surplus crops and merchants were allowed to profit. The government still controlled all major industries, however, and private ownership was limited to small factories, farms, and stores.
