1 answer

Their resistance was driven by a desire to maintain their independence, control over their land, and traditional way of life. They did not want to be forced to work on collective farms owned by the government and believed they would have more autonomy and security by continuing to work on their own small farms. Additionally, the idea of working for the government in collectives went against their individualistic values and sense of self-reliance.
