摘要：This article analyzes Marx´s vision about the possibility of revolutionary outbreaks in Russia. His initial hopes were concentrated on the countries of Western Europe, where capitalism was more highly developed. With the defeat of the 1848 revolutions and of the Paris Commune, Marx turns his attention to the possibility of a revolution coming from the East, from Russia, until then considered a bastion of reaction. His ideas are exposed in an exchange of letters with the Russian revolutionaries themselves. Marx´s intellectual development on this issue is described using his own writings as a basis.
