description The Russian Revolution had an immediate global impact, both as a model for revolutionary processes or intense social mobilizations in several European countries (e.g. Finland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Italy) and due to its influence on the great debates in the international socialist movement, which was reconfiguring itself, following the divisions of tendencies in the II International, towards a more permanent division —“a great schism” (in the words of historian Carl Schorske)— between organizations and individuals that would seek to reconstruct Social Democracy and those that would seek to build the Communist International.The period immediately after the Russian Revolution (1917-20) until the consolidation of the Comintern in its II Congress was a fluid moment of debates about the characterization of the Russian Revolution and its political, theoretical and strategic consequences. Through the analysis of the positions of Karl Kautsky and Antonio Gramsci —two intellectuals with great theoretical influence within the international socialist movement—, we seek to shed light on some of the main questions of the debate on these process: the character of the social forces involved; the objectives of the revolution; the role of democracy and dictatorship in the transition to socialism; and the international applicability of the Russian Revolution. The analysis draws on primary sources from each author, placing each of them in the context of their relationship with the socialist movement of their respective countries and the debates that went on within them.

The Russian Revolution had an immediate global impact, both as a model for revolutionary processes or intense social mobilizations in several European countries (e.g. Finland, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Italy) and due to its influence on the great debates in the international socialist movement, which was reconfiguring itself, following the divisions of tendencies in the II International, towards a more permanent division —“a great schism” (in the words of historian Carl Schorske)— between organizations and individuals that would seek to reconstruct Social Democracy and those that would seek to build the Communist International.The period immediately after the Russian Revolution (1917-20) until the consolidation of the Comintern in its II Congress was a fluid moment of debates about the characterization of the Russian Revolution and its political, theoretical and strategic consequences. Through the analysis of the positions of Karl Kautsky and Antonio Gramsci —two intellectuals with great theoretical influence within the international socialist movement—, we seek to shed light on some of the main questions of the debate on these process: the character of the social forces involved; the objectives of the revolution; the role of democracy and dictatorship in the transition to socialism; and the international applicability of the Russian Revolution. The analysis draws on primary sources from each author, placing each of them in the context of their relationship with the socialist movement of their respective countries and the debates that went on within them. La Revolución Rusa tuvo un inmediato impacto mundial, tanto por el ejemplo que supuso para procesos revolucionarios o de intensa movilización social desatados en el período subsiguiente en varios países de Europa (Finlandia, Alemania, Austria, Hungría, Italia, etc.) como por los grandes debates que suscitó en el socialismo internacional, ya que fue una de las principales causas del “gran cisma” (en palabras del historiador Carl Schorske) dentro de la II Internacional Socialista entre las organizaciones e individuos que se volcarían hacia la reconstrucción de la socialdemocracia y aquellos que apostarían a la construcción de la Internacional Comunista.El período inmediatamente posterior a la Revolución Rusa (1917-1920), hasta la consolidación de la Comintern en su II Congreso, fue un momento fluido de debate acerca de la caracterización de la Revolución Rusa y sus consecuencias políticas, teóricas y estratégicas. A través del análisis de las posiciones de Karl Kautsky y Antonio Gramsci —dos intelectuales de gran influencia teórica en el movimiento socialista internacional— pretendemos iluminar algunos aspectos principales del debate que provocó este proceso: el carácter de las fuerzas sociales involucradas, los objetivos de la revolución, el rol de la democracia y la dictadura en el proceso de transición al socialismo y la aplicabilidad internacional del balance de la Revolución Rusa. El análisis se centra en fuentes primarias de cada autor, situando las posiciones de cada uno en el contexto de su relación con el socialismo de su país y los debates que lo atravesaban.  Centro de Investigaciones y Estudios sobre Cultura y Sociedad 2018-06-30 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículos revisados por pares application/pdf https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/19871 10.55441/1668.7515.n20.19871 Astrolabio; No. 20 (2018): A CIEN AÑOS DE LA REVOLUCIÓN RUSA; 47-73 Astrolabio; Núm. 20 (2018): A CIEN AÑOS DE LA REVOLUCIÓN RUSA; 47-73 Astrolabio; n. 20 (2018): A CIEN AÑOS DE LA REVOLUCIÓN RUSA; 47-73 1668-7515 10.55441/1668.7515.n20 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/astrolabio/article/view/19871/20081
