Understanding Russia and Its Neighbors, March 23-24
 
In our post-Cold War era of globalization, Russia has reemerged as an influential state actor in the global arena.  But how can we define post-Cold War Russia, and what is the United States' role and relationship in the former Soviet-held region? Understanding Russia and Its Neighbors Seminar will examine social, economic, and political institutions in Russia as well as its influence in Central Asia and Eastern Europe.  Presentations will include Russia in the 21st century, Russia's demographic dilemma, and youth in the region. Concurrent sessions will feature strategies for integrating Russian studies in the classroom.  A special thank you to UNC's Center for Slavic, Eurasian, and East European Studies for co-sponsoring the seminar.


Registration: $175 per seminar, reduced to $325 for both (save $25)
Four-person team: $600 per seminar (save $100)
