Contemporary college students have few memories of the Cold War and as a result, are disinterested in Russian history narratives that are taught from a "know your enemy" point of view. However, the Russian philosophies of feminism, socialism, anarchism, and environmentalism especially as they relate to current transnational politics elicit passionate classroom discussion. Moral resistance to the state and the creation of moral communities, ideas that Tolstoy, Kropotkin, Emma Goldman, Solzhenitsyn, Anna Akhmatova and, others have developed, have the potential to draw students to the field of Slavic Studies.
