- Description
- Dr. Joshua Sanborn, Lafayette College, will address the ways in which military operations and martial law transformed social and political life in Russia, first in the borderlands and then in the empire as a whole. He will suggest that the war produced a crisis of decolonization, complete with manifestations of state failure, social collapse, and, eventually, claims for national independence.
