In the 20th century the collectivization of agriculture led to the deaths of tens of millions of people around the world. Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge had one of the highest mortality rates of any communist revolution, with the deaths of approximately one quarter of Cambodia's population: half from direct violence and the other half from indirect means, in particular starvation. This dissertation asks why. Specifically, what explains the variation in indirect deaths, those that resulted from means other than execution, during the Cambodian genocide? I answer these questions through a study of collective agriculture and famine deaths at the commune level, based on original interview data collected over sixteen months of fieldwork in Cambodia. I argue that it was not just collective agriculture that led to high rates of starvation deaths, but the policies of family separation associated with the collectivization process that exacerbated the problems of famine. The decision to include social components was an ideological one, but those it targeted reflect a strategic logic based on the state's economic and security interests. These choices mattered: the types of policies put in place ultimately shaped the likelihood that a person could survive the revolution. By breaking up social ties, collectivization effectively removed traditional buffer networks that protected against crop shortfalls or policy failures in the past. Through this project, I demonstrate a logic of governing a revolutionary state and its consequences for the unintended victims of state violence.
