Constructing the “Soviet”!? Political Consciousness, Everyday Practices, New Identities
The undergraduate- and graduate-student conference, “Constructing the ‘Soviet’? Political Consciousness, Everyday Practices, New Identities,” has been held at the European University at St. Petersburg annually since 2007. Our aim is to contribute to and stimulate an international discussion among students of Soviet history, to create connections between scholars, and to find new research methods and approaches to the study of Soviet history. The conference offers young scholars from Russia and abroad a chance to discuss different aspects of Soviet everyday life, politics, economics, and culture. Conference participants will have an opportunity to discuss their papers with the faculty of European University at St. Petersburg and other academic institutions. Apart from panel discussions, keynote presentations by prominent scholars working on Soviet history will be organized.
