The Department of History was created in 2012. The overarching goal of the department is systematic development of the field of global, comparative, and transnational history as a potent tool of overcoming the limitations of national history canon, fostering interdisciplinary dialogue in the field of social sciences and humanities, and brining new public relevance to historical knowledge. The department mission includes the development of new type of historical undergraduate and graduate education in Russia and pioneering new research fields in Russian historiography in dialogue with the global historical profession.

The live webcast through the portal Net.abimperio.net was carried out with simultaneous translation. In his lecture, Professor Suny presented an analysis of the Russian historical experience from the perspectives of empire and nation building, which at the end of twentieth century led to emergence of the independent post-Soviet states. After the lecture, Professor Suny answered questions from the audience. Historical expertise proved particularly relevant for understanding the current political crisis in relations between the Russian Federation and Ukraine.
