The year 1923 stands for a serious crisis: occupation of the Ruhr area, inflation, economic crisis, Hitler putsch and finally the so-called communist putsch attempts in Saxony. The left-wing government there opened the door to "Moscow" and communism. Only the invasion of the Reichswehr could save the Reich from chaos and overthrow. That's the conventional wisdom so far. The book shows that the left-wing republican project initiated in Saxony by no means wanted to destroy democracy; on the contrary, it wanted to strengthen and further develop the Weimar system.
