Résumé anglais Aleksandr V. Kvašonkin, The Sovietization of Transcaucasia through the correspondence of the Bolshevik leadership, 1920-1922. This article studies the questions of the establishment of the Soviet power in the Transcaucasian republics (Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia) through the correspondence both formal and informal of the Bolshevik leadership during the years 1920-1922. The correspondence of the representatives of the party and the army of Transcaucasia with the Center and between themselves is an extremely rich material which helps establish a true picture of the events in this area, understand and enlight the role played by different leaders of the Bolshevik elite in what they called among themselves the "Sovietization". Beginning in April 1920 in Azerbaijan, the "Sovietization" then spreads out to Armenia and Georgia in the same way: a communist coup takes place in the capital, a Revolutionary Committee is created, calls for help to Soviet Russia which sends troups to the rescue and finally Moscow makes a welcoming speech to the "freed people." Letters, telegrams, talks over a "direct line" (the telegraph) restore the dynamic and bring sense to the chain of acts and events. Among the actors we meet Lenin, Trotskii, Stalin, Ordzhonikidze, Kirov, Chicherin, Tukhachevskii, Krestinskii, Mdivani, Frumkin, Kosior, Vrachev, Trifonov, Kvirkeliia, Smigla and many others.
