Join Anna Vichkitova to examine how Moldovans remember their Soviet past through oral history interviews. Her research reveals how personal accounts from interviewees demonstrate the way post-Soviet socio-economic conditions, migration, and education influence memory. Vichkitova argues that individual memories provide valuable insights not only into the Soviet past but also into the complex, contested, and political nature of memory itself in post-Soviet Moldova.

About

The Graduate Student Research Workshop is a seminar for graduate students at Harvard University and MIT to present their research to peers and faculty with an interest in European studies. This student-run, student-centered workshop welcomes presenters at any stage of their research from any social science discipline.

To join the seminar mailing list, please contact the seminar chairs. Papers will be distributed to participants via email in advance, and the schedule of upcoming workshops will be updated here throughout the academic year.
