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.

Simo Mikkonen's lecture "History as interpretation: from national to transnational history"
The lecture was devoted to the nature of history as well as the role of historical sources in research. The lecturer discussed ways historical knowledge is being formed, emphasizing the fact that history has always been a result of interpretation rather than given facts. He also showed how history was abused in order to justify someone`s activities or create a narrative used for forming a nation. Dr Mikkonen discussed the problem of creating transnational history, stressing the difference between world, global (entangled) and postocolonial history. The lecture was open for a wider public and attracted students studying history, polical sciences, social sciences, and anthropology.
