The Red Khmer forced the predominant majority of the city population, in particular the intellectual elite, officials and skilled workers, to the country. They were regarded as an “old class” and should not affect the new, purely agrarian society. In rural areas, people were forced to extreme forced labour in collectives. Working conditions were brutal, and many died of hunger, illness or exhaustion.
A few skilled workers considered useful to the regime (e.g. doctors or engineers) were allowed to continue working in certain areas. As a rule, children were not directly employed for field work, but for political indoctrination and military training.
The Red Khmer wanted to create a purely agricultural society that was cut off from any technology and modern way of life. They believed that cities encouraged corruption and decadence and that people could only develop their true nature through hard work in the country.

During their reign from 1975 to 1979, the Red Khmer under Pol Pot tried to create an agrarian utopia.
They forced the population to work in agricultural collectives and pursued a radical transformation of society.
Many people were deported from cities in rural areas to work in agriculture. These forced measures resulted in enormous suffering and numerous deaths caused by hunger, forced labour and violence.
