In this special episode of Critical Theory in Context, Robin Celikates is joined by Greg Yudin, a prominent voice of the Russian anti-war protests.
With Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the focus is rightly on what is happening on the ground, in Ukraine, and on the international reaction to the war. At the same time, Russians around the world and in Russia itself have come out to protest against the war and the Putin government.
In the conversation, Robin and Greg discuss the reactions of the Russian population to the war in Ukraine, possible fractures within the Russian elite, the prospects for resistance, and the responses of the Western left to this war.
