Alternative for Russia: Monarchist, Populist and Antisemitic Voices across the 1917 Divide

Sun, November 23, 12:00 to 1:45pm EST (12:00 to 1:45pm EST), -

Session Submission Type: Panel

Brief Description

The various ideologies under the loose rubric of 19th-century Russian conservatism — monarchism, nationalism, right-wing populism, antisemitism — were for decades denigrated or ignored by Soviet historians and little studied in the West. But times have changed. The collapse of the Soviet Union and of communism has enabled a new field of scholarly inquiry in Russia, and the Putin regime has demonstrated the enduring resonance of conservative views in Russian political culture. This panel will show the influence of a sample of right-wing voices in late-imperial and early Soviet Russia.
