Lenin was exiled to one of the more agreeable places in Siberia, a small town on the River Lena. At the time he was still Vladimir I. Ulyanov, but his time spent at the River Lena influenced him to adopt the name "Lenin."
It appears that Lenin changed his mind about the nationalization of small peasant farms in 1907 from his first writings on the subject in 1903. At that time Lenin proposed that local democratic bodies would be in charge of small farms and under that system, peasants could vote on any concerns. In 1907, however, Lenin changed his mind. He was opposed to small scale peasant farm development in that large scale collectives would be more efficient. It has been speculated that Lenin's change of mind was also based on the belief that such groups of landowners might form a landed class opposed to socialism.
