Conference: Interprofessional & Interdisciplinary Relations in Russia

[andy byford]

Interprofessional and Interdisciplinary Relations in 
Russia: Zones of Collaboration, Competition and 
Conflict

 


International conference, taking place in Durham on 19-21 September 
2014 at the Institute of Advanced 
Study. Sponsors include Durham University's Faculty of Arts & 
Humanities and its School of Modern Languages and 
Cultures, as well as the British Association for Slavonic and East 
European Studies (BASEES).

 

Professions and sciences form a complex, highly differentiated yet closely 
interconnected, field of expert knowledge and labour, vital to all modern states 
and societies. The focus of this conference will be on the dynamics of this 
field in Russian history in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. 
The conference will re-examine the history of Russian professions and sciences 
from a new vantage point – that of interprofessional and interdisciplinary 
relations. This is a neglected aspect of this history, yet vital to 
understanding how Russian professions and sciences created, defined and 
legitimised their work, expertise and jurisdictions.
