OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
A people’s census: Soviet war crimes documentation and the history of information
I am a historian of the Soviet Union whose research centers on Stalinism, World War II, the Holocaust, and their intertwined aftermaths. My current book manuscript, Eyes on the Ground: Soviet Investigations of the Nazi Occupation, examines the Extraordinary State Commission established by Stalin’s government in 1942 to gather documentation of Axis war crimes. My second book project, tentatively titled Jewish Choices in Soviet Riga, is a collective biography of Holocaust survivors who worked for Soviet state security organs after World War II only then to be prosecuted themselves in the course of antisemitic repressions during Stalin’s final years. Prior to earning my doctorate, I worked as a digital archivist.
