In the Labyrinth of National Identity: Russia and Europe

CfA – Postgraduate Summer Course – “In the Labyrinth of National Identity: Russia and Europe” - Central European University, Budapest, Hungary, 11 July - 20 July, 2016.

This course (http://summeruniversity.ceu.edu/nationalidentity-2016) provides an opportunity to reflect on the recent political upheavals in Russia and in Ukraine. The aim of this course is, however, to explore national identity and nationalism in Europe and Russia disentangled from the news and to reveal hidden historically embedded patterns.

The application deadline is February 14, 2016. The program encourages applications from junior career faculty as well as graduate students and researchers in nationalism studies, history, political science, international relations, sociology, anthropology, and Slavic studies.  The course attracts students from around the world, allowing participants to explore conflict resolution from diverse perspectives and contexts.  While this is an academic course on European and Russian national identity, it is offered not only for students, but also for professionals interested in public policy and inter-ethnic conflict resolution.
