History

No modern nation has had a history as traumatic and controversial as Russia's. Interpreting that history is made all the more challenging by the frequency with which Russia has been convulsed by different forces. This course provides both facts and interpretations of Russia's dramatic experience with Soviet Communism, and highlights major events including the Bolshevik Revolution, Stalinism, and Gorbachev's perestroika and glasnost.
