1:38:07Now Playing1917 Centennial Series: Origins of Unfreedom
Russia, Europe, America
Monday, November 6, 2017
Filene Auditorium, Moore Building
Mary and Peter R. Dallman 1951 Great Issues Lecture
Origins of Unfreedom: Russia, Europe, America
Timothy Snyder, Professor of History, Yale University
The Bolshevik Revolution was an end point of the first globalization. The contest between far left and far right that followed foreshadowed some of our own problems as the second globalization fades. In other respects, modern authoritarianism in Russia, Europe, and America is entirely new. The point of this lecture is to restore a sense of historical time and agency against these narratives of past and present.
