Mission of the Network
The aim of the network is to gather scholars, specialists, and graduate students who work on the postsoviet region in order to offer a platform of communication and diffusion, which will hopefully foster collaboration between disciplines, professions, and research institutions. While this network is open to everyone, it will concentrate especially on issues related to the social sciences and the humanities in order to foster a greater dialogue.
Object of Study
The focus of the network is on the postsoviet region. The “postsoviet” adjective should not be understood here in its historical sense; rather, the term refers to a geographical and cultural space, which was shaped by a common belonging to the USSR. In other words, while the aim of the network is to gather research on the fifteen states that are now successors of the USSR. Research on the region during the soviet and presoviet periods are, of course, welcome.

Other Network Activities
Why limit ourselves to a mailing list when the network will gather a community of specialists with shared interests? A first meeting will be held in Spring 2015 to discuss the organization of different activities that could correspond to the needs of the network community (i.e., graduate seminars, annual conventions, informal meetings, etc.) All ideas are welcome and you are invited to share them via this address reseau.postsov@gmail.com or through the mailing list.
