Proletarian Revolution (journal)

Proletarian Revolution (Russian: Пролетарская революция) was a Soviet historical journal published in Moscow from 1921 to 1941.

[1][2] In a review of the first issue, Ilya Vardin reported the journal as declaring "Our goal is precisely to help the writing of the history of the proletarian revolution in Russia.

[4] The purpose of the journal was to publish articles, documents and memoirs on the history of the workers' movement, the Communist Party, the October Revolution and the Civil War as well as materials about prominent leaders of the party and the workers' and social democratic movement.

[4] In 1931, Joseph Stalin sent a letter, "Some Questions Concerning the History of Bolshevism" to the magazine sharply criticizing the published article by Anatoly Slutsky, "The Bolsheviks on German Social Democracy in the Period of its Pre-War Crisis", describing it as anti-party and half-Trotskyist.
