Pavel Khazanov | Spring 2026 Book Talk Series: 'The Russia that We Have Lost'

In 1917, Bolshevik revolutionaries overthrew the tsar of Russia and established a new, communist government, one that viewed the Imperial Russia of old as a righteously vanquished enemy. And yet, Khazanov shows, after the collapse of Stalinism, a reconfiguration of Imperial Russia began to emerge, recalling the culture of tsarist Russia not as a disgrace but as a glory, a past to not only remember but to recover, and to deploy against what to many seemed like a discredited socialist project. --- Event Details: https://my.princeton.edu/rsvp?id=1970561
