• Seminarium - 30 godzin

Russian full scale invasion of Ukraine has significant geopolitical and biopolitical consequences for Russian society and neighbouring countries. The tightening of the Putin’s biopolitical regime, however, could be visible much earlier. By referring to the existing literature on biopolitics, thanatopolitics and particularly on analysis of the Putin’s regime as a biopolitical regime, and by referring to the existing data including first-hand ethnographic materials collected during the field research in Russia and neighbouring countries, these seminars encourage the discussions on shape and particularities of Putin’s biopolitical regime and their impact on Russian citizens and societies of neighbouring countries.

• Seminarium - 30 godzin

This seminar aims to critically discuss usefulness as well as the limits of the postcolonial and decolonial theories for analysis of the post-Soviet space, and post-Soviet societies. By referring to existing literature we will focus on particularities of the Russian/Soviet versions of colonialism, modernisation, imperialism and postcolonialism. Moreover, we will discuss whether a hegemonic epistemology of postsocialism may be worked through the decolonial though. By referring to recent growing literature calling for decolonisation of the post-Soviet societies from Russian/Soviet past, cultural influences and dependences, as well as to empirical materials such as literature, movies and ethnographic researches, we will discuss particularities of the processes of Russian/Soviet colonisation and decolonisation processes.
