The "Berlin Wall"

Come “visit the Wall”, a student-and-faculty-built replica of the Berlin Wall which went down 30 years ago! Reflect upon the historical and general meaning of the Wall, bring a pen and leave your thoughts in writing or drawing, engage with it in any productive way you like. And join us for a collective “Tearing down the Wall” event on Saturday, November 9th, in the evening. Once the Wall is gone, let’s celebrate inside of Atwater!!!

Plots against Russia: Cultural Contamination and the Language of Conspiracy

Eliot Borenstein’s forthcoming book, Plots Against Russia, is a study of the role of paranoid fantasy in contemporary Russian political discourse and culture. Rather than simply respond to every conspiracy theory that makes the news, or assume that conspiracy is somehow an exclusively Russian disorder, Borenstein examines the frameworks that have allowed conspiracy to flourish there.

Eliot Borenstein is Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Russian & Slavic Studies at New York University.
