Description
IOP Pritzker Fellow Natalia Pelevina on "Trump + Putin = Tru-Tin"
THIS SEMINAR IS OPEN TO CURRENT UCHICAGO STUDENTS ONLY
Tuesday, April 15
12:30-1:45pm
Similarities? A Bromance? Or a potential for a fall out? Russians were celebrating Trump’s win in 2016, and the corks were flying all over Moscow. This time around, things are a little different. Oligarchy, imperialistic ambitions, prosecution of the opposition: could Trump be modeling himself on Putin? We will see Donald Trump through the prism of Russian propaganda; discuss scenarios for the next four years; and the global context, authoritarianism and far-right movement on the rise. What we can do to bring about a better future.
Pritzker Fellows seminars are off the record and open to current UChicago students only. Seating in the IOP Living Room is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
