Information
We invite you to a talk with political scientist Ekaterina Schulmann and journalist Maksim Kurnikov, titled "The Emigration That Came to Power." The speakers will explore the political and media structures created by Russians in exile between 1900 and 1917, and how these institutions influenced broader social developments. Ekaterina Schulmann and Maksim Kurnikov are widely known for their program "Status," where they discuss current issues related to politics and history every week. During this live event, they will share their expertise and speak with the audience about the unique characteristics of Russian-speaking émigré communities more than a century ago. In the second part of the evening, attendees will have the chance to ask questions and interact with Ekaterina Schulmann and Maksim Kurnikov in an informal setting. The lecture is in Russian.
