Updates : Collaboration with the Project on Reading Habits and Dissent

We are delighted to have support from the Project on Reading Habits and Dissent during the Period of Stagnation in the Soviet Union, 1960s-1980s, run by Josephine von Zitzewitz (New College) at Oxford University with Gennady Kuzovkin, historian and archive specialist at the Memorial Society in Moscow. The project on Reading Habits and Dissent will increase our understanding of the cultural dynamics of this period in a significant way.
