Answer:

differentiation.

Rich peasants in Russia were called kulaks, which literally means ‘fists’. Lenin argued that socioeconomic differentiation had been taking place in the Russian countryside in the late 19th and early 20th century. By differentiation he meant more than that some peasants were growing richer, whilst others grew poorer. Lenin distinguished three strata among the Russian peasantry: the kulaks, ‘rich or well-to-do’ peasants, ‘middle peasants’ and ‘poor peasants’. But he argued that this three-tiered structure was in fact polarising into a dualistic structure of a new type: rich peasants were becoming a rural bourgeoisie, hiring wage labourers who were poor peasants becoming rural proletarians. Some poor peasants were landless; others might continue farming a little plot of land, but all were unable to survive without working for wages as well. The middle peasants were being squeezed out of existence and reduced to the ranks of the poor peasants, as the rural economy became more commercialized .
