Projects

The Department of History works on research projects in the most important fields of historical research, on improving the skills of university teachers and methods of university-level instruction, and on developing professional contacts both within Russia and abroad.

At present, the department has two ongoing projects: “Reforms and Reformers in the Historical Fortunes of Russia,” which touches on issues of both history and political science; and “Constructing the ‘Soviet’? Political Consciousness, Daily Practices and New Identities,” in which students and graduate students present research dealing with various aspects of the “Soviet.”
