Summary
Our PhD Russian and East European Studies programme will enable you to carry out a piece of significant, original research under the supervision of our academics.
Staff in Russian and East European Studies conduct research of an interdisciplinary nature across a broad range of subjects, including:
-
19th and 20th-century literature and history of Russia, Eastern Europe and Eurasia;
-
Soviet and post-Soviet cinema and the media;
-
Russian state propaganda and disinformation;
-
post-Soviet Russian and East European popular culture and music;
-
memory studies;
-
nationalism and ethnic politics historically and in the post-communist period.
The discipline of Russian and East European Studies constitutes a core group of the Cross-Disciplinary Russian and Eurasian Studies Network, which facilitates collaboration in research and postgraduate teaching and supervision among relevant members of staff across the Faculty of Humanities at Manchester.
Our staff's externally-funded current research projects include:
-
(Mis)Translating Deceit: Disinformation as a Translingual, Discursive Dynamic (AHRC);
-
Eurasian Poles and Periperies in Transformation (UKRI).
A focal point for our research activity is a regular research seminar, which features a mix of internal and external speakers, and promotes debate between staff and postgraduates across the full spectrum of their research interests.
We run a research grouping on Russian Media, Propaganda and Disinformation .
