Голод в СССР 1946-1947 годов: происхождение и последствия
В.Ф. Зима
Москва, 1996
Монография посвящена актуальной и совершенно неизученной теме. В ней впервые на новом, ранее недоступном для исследователей материале секретных документов из фондов партийных и государственных архивов СССР, писем, воспоминаний очевидцев, книг и статей, опубликованных по тому же периоду на близкие сюжеты, раскрываются причины, масштабы и последствия послевоенного голода 1946-1947 гг. в Советском Союзе. В хронологической последовательности анализируются важнейшие указы, постановления и распоряжения за подписью И.В. Сталина, В.М. Молотова, Н.М. Шверника и др. На конкретных примерах показывается отрицительное влияние войны, засухи, заготовительных и налоговых кампаний на тяжелое материальное положение жителей страны. На основе официальных статистических данных определены примерные людские потери от голода и вызванных им заболеваний.

PROJECTION OF A METAMODERN METHOD FOR THE STUDY OF THE FAMINE IN BESSARABIA IN 1946–1947, REFLECTED IN HISTORICAL PAINTING
Yona Tukuser
Sofia, 2020
The article uses a metamodern method of research with scientific and artistic techniques, which serves as a basis for the connection between science and fine arts. The results of the study of literature on the subject and newly discovered documentary sources are used to recreate the famine in Bessarabia in 1946–1947 in picturesque historical paintings. Visual images reveal the influence of the tragic consequences of the famine and support the understanding of the socio-cultural and moral-psychological state of the Bessarabian Bulgarians. The emotional artistic expression in the paintings is a means of deep penetration into the atmosphere of abuse of human dignity in Bessarabia, through purposefully provoked hunger.

The Soviet famine of 1946-47 in global and historical perspective
by Nicholas Ganson
New York, 2009
This book illuminates a little-known but tremendously significant twentieth-century crisis in the Soviet Union. Drawing on archival materials declassified since the fall of communism, Nicholas Ganson situates the famine of 1946-47 at the crossroads of Soviet social and political history, World War II, the Cold War, ideology, and famine in the modern world. He sheds light on the perspectives of Soviet elites and gives voice to the famine s victims. In revealing the multi-causality of the postwar hunger, this ambitious work challenges the received wisdom about the relationship between politics and famine.

The 1947 Soviet famine and the entitlement approach to famines
Cambridge Journal of Economics, Volume 24, Issue 5, September 2000, Pages 603–630, https://doi.org/10.1093/cje/24.5.603

Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of the economics of the 1947 Soviet famine, using data from recently declassified archives. It is argued that the best estimate that can currently be given of the number of excess deaths in the range 1.0-1.5 million. The demographic loss was greater. During the famine, surplus stocks in the hands of the state seem to have been sufficient to have fed all those who died of starvation. The famine was a FAD2 (preventable food availability decline) famine, which occurred because a drought caused a bad harvest and hence reduced food availability, but, had the priorities of the government been different, there might have been no famine (or a much smaller one) despite the drought. The selection of victims can be understood in terms of the entitlement approach.

The Soviet Famine of 1946–1947, the Weather and Human Agency in Historical Perspective
STEPHEN G. WHEATCROFT
Europe-Asia Studies
Published By: Taylor & Francis
Abstract
This article considers the famine of the immediate post-war period of 1946–1947 in relation to the food problems experienced by the USSR in World War II and to the impact of the weather conditions from 1941. It is argued that the timing and nature of the extreme food problems experienced in this famine conform to a general pattern of Soviet famines in which urban food supply problems over a number of years give rise to increasing pressure on the peasantry and a general reduction of stocks, which when complicated by drought and harvest failure produces a rural famine.

Russia After the War Hopes, Illusions and Disappointments, 1945-1957
By Elena Zubkova, University of Alabama
England, 1998
ISBN 9780765602282
The years of late Stalinism are one of the murkiest periods in Soviet history, best known to us through the voices of Ehrenburg, Khrushchev and Solzhenitsyn. This is a sweeping history of Russia from the end of the war to the Thaw by one of Russia's respected younger historians. Drawing on the resources of newly opened archives as well as the recent outpouring of published diaries and memoirs, Elena Zubkova presents a richly detailed portrayal of the basic conditions of people's lives in Soviet Russia from 1945 to 1957. She brings out the dynamics of postwar popular expectations and the cultural stirrings set in motion by the wartime experience versus the regime's determination to reassert command over territories and populations and the mechanisms of repression. Her interpretation of the period establishes the context for the liberalizing and reformist impulses that surfaced in the post-Stalin succession struggle, characterizing what would be the formative period for a future generation of leaders: Gorbachev, Yeltsin and their contemporaries.
