Summary

How do societies respond to war’s devastation? In this episode, co-host Carolyn Strange asks Filip Slaveski to answer that question, tapping his expertise in the history of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union, especially Russia and Ukriane. Revolution and famine preceded the waves of violence and destruction of the Second World War. What strategies and resources allowed ordinary people to survive, to cope, to retain hope and rebuild their lives once the guns fell silent, or at least were muted? How can we better understand Ukraine’s response to Russia’s recent attacks through that past?
