How it Works and How it Helps To Understand the Russian Population’s Mindset During the Invasion in Ukraine
On 21 February, Studium Generale welcomes Nikolay Epplée, Alexander Gubsky, and Hubert Smeets for a lecture followed by a panel discussion about the ways in which the memory of Stalinism affects the Russian people’s view on the invasion of Ukraine.Three days before 24 February, the day on which the invasion of Ukraine started, and two days before the national militarist holiday known in the time of the USSR as the “Soviet Army Day” and today as “Defender of the Fatherland Day”, our guests will discuss the Russian people’s collective perceptions of the past and present, the political mood in contemporary Russia, and how these sentiments are affected by censorship and unfree media.
This event is organized together with prof.dr. Jaap de Jong, Professor of Journalism and New Media, Leiden University.
