One hundred years ago, on January 21, 1924, Lenin passed away. Why should politicians and publicists leave the past to scientists who object to the abolition of their own history? Did Lenin foresee where the monstrous “red wheel” would move?

On Wednesday, October 20, 2021, the Department of International Relations and the International Laboratory on World Order Studies and the New Regionalism of the National Research University Higher School of Economics held the 27th session of Eurasian Online Seminar.

From May 24 – 25, 2016, HSE hosted an international human rights conference dedicated to the 20^th anniversary of Russia’s accession to the Council of Europe. The conference entitled ‘Human Rights Education and Research in the Promotion of the Council of Europe Standards’ was organized by HSE (Department of Theory and History of Law), the Council of Europe, and the Presidential Council on the Development of Civil Society and Human Rights (HRC). The forum attracted Russian lawyers and professors involved in human rights studies, their colleagues in Europe, as well as officials and diplomats involved in Russia’s accession to and work in the Council of Europe.

The article ‘Looking West from Russia: The Eurasianist Folly’ by Vladimir Lukin, Research Professor at the Faculty of World Economy and International Affairs, was published at ‘The National Interest’ magazine.
