According to the Constitution of Soviet Socialist Republics the private ownership on land was abolished and the entire land was officially declared the state property. Civil circulation of land plots was prohibited. Terms, such as: private propertyy, as well as purchase and sale of land, land price, land market, transfer of land by inheritance, etc. became unfamiliar.
