Description:
The seminar is designed to provide graduate students with a reasonable introductory sense of the enormous field of inquiry about post-transitional Russian identity. As the content of numerous debates convincingly shows, contemporary Russian identity is a work-in-progress. It is created by multiply forces including cultural patterns of social life and governance, domestic and international politics, economic incentives, security and spiritual needs.
