Résumé anglais Francis Conte, Around the polemic Rakovskii-Stalin concerning the question of nationalities, 1921-1923. The article analyzes a significant episode which marked the transformation of the Soviet state into a Union of Socialist Soviet Republics between 1922 and 1923. It observes and examines a fundamental disagreement: the one that opposed Christian Rakovskii, president of the Council of the commissars of the people of the SSR of Ukraine, member of the Central Committee of the Russian communist party, to Stalin. Rakovskii advocated supple and representative institutions which, in his opinion, were to ensure a "democratic" centralism and accused Stalin of creating a system of "bureaucratic" centralism, the disastrous consequences of which he foresaw. The author endeavours to demonstrate that this opposition of principles can be understood only in connection with the evolution of the meaning that Bolsheviks attached to the concepts of internationalism, nationalism and bureaucracy in the light of the world revolution.
