Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to show Carl von Clausewitz influence on Vladimir Lenin writings and actions. We especially want to analyse this influence on bolshevik’s theory of war, warfare and revolutionary struggle. We think that Clausewitz writings on strategy and tactics played important role in marxist-leninist theory of just and unjust war’s. They have also important role in defending the October Revolution in Russia because beliefs of prussian general helps bolshevik with creation of the Red Army as mighty and powerful revolutionaly tool. At the end we want to show actuality of „clausewitzian” theory of war in modern marxism. We would say also few words about importance of marxist investigations of war as instrument of capitalist culture.
