The path which it took the Russian Revolution twelve years to cover, from 1906 to 1917, will have taken the German Revolution five years, from 1918 to 1923. ... The proletarian revolution is knocking at Germany's door; you would have to be blind not to see it. ... Very soon, everyone will see that this autumn of 1923 is a turning-point, not just for the history of Germany, but for the history of the whole world. In fact, far from being on the point of triumphing, the German Revolution was on the verge of an irredeemable disaster which would soon inflict terrible consequences on Germany and the world. In this magisterial work, first published 1971 and still unsurpassed, Pierre Broue? meticulously reconstitutes the six decisive years during which - between 'ultra-leftism and 'opportunism', 'sectarianism' and 'revisionism', 'activism' and 'passivity' - the German revolutionaries attempted to begin a new chapter in the history of the proletariat. 410 0$aHistorical materialism book series ;$v5. 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$zGermany 607 $aGermany$xPolitics and government$y1918-1933 607 $aGermany$xHistory$yRevolution, 1918 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918 676 $a943.085 700 $aBroue?$b Pierre$0388447 701 $aBirchall$b Ian H$0129217 701 $aPearce$b Brian$0214805 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784503103321 996 $aThe German Revolution, 1917-1923$93864546 997 $aUNINA
