The Dacre Lecture is held in association with the Faculty of History
“Once, Stalin spoke obsessively about loss of control in Ukraine, and about foreign plots to subvert Ukraine. Now it is Vladimir Putin who believes that a sovereign, democratic, stable Ukraine, tied to the rest of Europe by links of culture and trade, would be a threat to the Russian elite. In the 1930s, Moscow’s fear of Ukraine led to tragedy, and so it has once again. This lecture will both tell the story of Stalin’s war on Ukraine – the artificial famine and mass repression that followed – and examine its echoes in the present.”
Followed by a drinks reception
