In-person and online public event (Auditorium, Centre Building)
Thursday 05 Oct 2023 6.30pm - 8pm
With the war in Ukraine well into its second year, we are joined by Nina Khrushcheva to discuss the fault lines that the war has opened up in Russian society - and the potential of the Russia left to use these fractures to push for a more progressive Russia.
Meet our speaker and chair
Nina Lvovna Khrushcheva is Professor of International Affairs at The New School in New York City, and a contributing editor to Project Syndicate: Association of Newspapers Around the World.
Robin Archer is the Director of the postgraduate programme in political sociology and the Director of the Ralph Miliband Programme at LSE.

The Ralph Miliband Programme (@rmilibandlse) is one of LSE's most prestigious lecture series and seeks to advance Ralph Miliband's spirit of free social inquiry.
As a Department (@LSEsociology) we seek to produce sociology that is public-facing, fully engaged with London as a global city, and with major contemporary debates in the intersection between economy, politics and society – with issues such as financialisation, inequality, migration, urban ecology, and climate change.
