Résumé anglais Stephen Blank, Soviet politics and the Iranian revolution of 1919-1921. The Soviet intervention in Iran during 1919-1921 arose out of the conjuncture of historic Russian interest in dominating Iran, Leninist visions of third world revolution, Stalin's personal ambitions, and the Pan-Islamic aspirations of radical Soviet Moslems led by Sultangaliev. This article seeks to trace the interplay between the domestic ramifications of the Soviet debate on tactics in Iran during 1919-1921 and the actual implementation of radical policies on the ground by Soviet troops ultimately commanded by Stalin on the one hand and the Iranian Communists on the other. By exploring the interconnected nature of the resolution of fundamental issues of Soviet nationality policy and foreign policy the article seeks to uncover the roots of Stalin's international activity at this time and the consequences of the Iranian adventure for both domestic and foreign policy after 1921.
