The Talk: Ekaterina Shulman and Maxim Kournikov

In March, a meeting will be held in London with political scientist and teacher Ekaterina Shulman, as well as historian and journalist Maxim Kournikov, where they will talk about the creation and adoption of the Stalinist constitution of 1936 and the election campaigns of 1937-1938. The speakers will discuss the foreign and domestic political causes of constitutional reform, the consequences of “popular discussion” and resistance to the ritual of Soviet elections. Shulman will talk about the legal content of the trial, and Kournikov will talk about evidence of violence and resistance during the Great Terror.

Please note that the meeting will be held in Russian, and there will also be an opportunity to ask the speakers questions during the second part of the event.
