The new issue of “The Bridge-MOCT,” the journal of the International Association for the Humanities is out (Vol. 2, Issue 5 (8), 2013). “The Bridge-MOCT” newsletter emerged from the long standing collaboration between Belarusian, Russian, Ukrainian, and American scholars in the humanities and social sciences who called attention to the lack of communication and cooperation of local scholarly communities in North America and the post-Soviet states. The editorial group believes that in contemporary political climate in the former Soviet states it is crucial to protect and advocate intellectual and scholarly autonomy, develop international collaboration between academic communities, and include post-Soviet scholars in the “globalizing” academia. The newsletter aims to support voices of the “small-scale” universities from Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia which are usually overpowered by larger federal universities that have more resources. The International Association for the Humanities and its newsletter “The Bridge-MOCT” support strengthening democratic ideas and values that are communicated by the independent research and free universities. The issue features the International Association for the Humanities (IAH) petition to support independent research organizations in Russia; the introduction of the International Congress of Belarusian Studies Award; commentaries on structural changes in the History Department of Grodno University, Belarus, and on “Colloquium Vilnense,” the interdisciplinary project based in Vilnius, Lithuania, that is related to the past, present and future of the region.
