Almost 30 years after the collapse of the USSR, nostalgia for the Soviet era has never been stronger among many different sections of society and diverse age groups in Russia. The course will illustrate these cultural and social trends, explore the ways in which the myths and realities of the 1917-1990 period are represented in contemporary Russia and reflect on the causes of this historical revisionism. The course will also give an opportunity to contrast Western perceptions of this phenomenon with Russians' own experience.

Fees and bursaries

Fees

Fees for weekend courses cover tuition, meals (except breakfast) and refreshments, including morning coffee and afternoon tea during teaching hours, and travel on excursions (but not entrance fees to properties visited). Accommodation can be booked for an additional fee and includes breakfast.

VAT does not apply to course fees and there is no service charge (gratuities to domestic staff are left to your discretion). It is sometimes possible to stay for extra nights or extra meals, or to invite guests to meals, at an additional cost and by prior arrangement with the Admissions team.

If you do not wish to pay in full at the time of booking, you may pay a 15% registration fee as a deposit by credit/debit card. The balance will automatically be taken two weeks before the start of the course. If you wish to pay by cheque, you will need to pay in full when the booking is made.

You may cancel a course booking at any time. After the 14 day cancellation period has expired, the standard ICE course cancellation policy will apply. Please view our refund and cancellation policy for further details.
