Anne Applebaum at BC

Anne Applebaum is a columnist for the Washington Post, a Professor of the Practice at the London School of Economics, and a contributor to the New York Review of Books. Her published books include Iron Curtain, winner of the Cundill Prize and a finalist for the National Book Award, and Gulag, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Nonfiction and a finalist for three other major prizes. 

Her talk at Boston College, treating the subject of her latest book, excavates a history that is seldom told in traditional history books. Spanning the Ukrainian Revolution of 1917, and ending with the Ukrainian famine of 1932-33, Applebaum reveals the central clues for understanding today’s troubled Ukrainian-Russian relations.

Sponsored by Boston College, The Department of Slavic and Eastern Languages and Literatures, The Institute of Liberal Arts, The Clough Center for the Study of Constitutional Democracy, and the Heinz Bluhm Memorial Lecture Series
