This article examines the main trends of Anglo-American post-World War II scholarly articles on the Decembrists movement. The analysis of this historiography fills in the gap in the literature. Soviet/Russian researchers have examined in detail both the fundamental plots of the day of the uprising, the investigation of the Decembrists' case and the domestic political problems of Russia in the first quarter of the 19th century, the issue of serfdom, etc. However, there is a lack of analysis of the specific features of Anglo-American scholarly articles on the Decembrist movement. In the USSR/Russia since the 1940s, the Stalinist revolutionary concept of Decembrist movement was adopted and for many years its main points were not disputed. Our analysis shows that the development of Anglo-American historiography of the Decembrists movement took decisively different direction. Anglo-American writers were not ready to admire the unequivocal revolutionary nature of the movement. Their studies represented diverse methodological approaches, often resulting in multi-disciplinary analysis, for example, combining historical and philological approaches. Naturally, these tendencies in the literature can be partially explained by the meager access to archival materials for the foreign scholars. However, our article notes that the multi-disciplinary trends of Anglo-American post-war historiography on the Decembrists movement as well as their evaluation of the movement through the lens of social movements, are worth to examine, especially in the light of new studies of the Decembrists movement in Russia.
