Machine-translated · View original
A lab that traces the Russian emigre community and the fate of its records.

AboutAbout the lab
Reading history through the movement of records.
The lab of Associate Professor Eduard Baryshev studies the Russian emigre communities that dispersed around the world after the Russian Revolution, and the fate of the records (archives) they left behind.
Its research spans library and information science, humanities and social science informatics, international relations, and history in general.
Using the concept of "displaced archives" as a guide, the lab has examined the phenomenon in which records are moved across national borders and scattered.
In recent years, the lab has also presented at academic conferences on the organization and activities of the Russian Historical Archive Abroad (RZIA) in Prague, and on the foreign relations of Russia during the Civil War and Japan.
