Abstract
The article analyzes the failed revolution of 1923 in Germany in the works of modern Russian historians. Expanding access to archives and the introduction of a large number of documents on this topic into scientific discussion, allows researchers to turn to problems that were not previously raised in Soviet historiography: «German October» and the foreign policy of the USSR, peaceful coexistence or revolutionary war, the influence of the Bolshevik leadership on strategy and the tactics of the German Communist Party, the struggle in the Comintern and in the RCP (b) on the issues of the German revolution. All these topics are the core of the proposed work. The author comes to the conclusion that, despite all the significance of the German revolution for strengthening the geopolitical positions of the Bolsheviks, the national interests of Soviet Russia turned out to be more important for the RCP (b). The revolutionary uprising in Germany never took place, since it could trigger a new European war, which both the great powers and the USSR wanted to avoid at that time.
