Stalin's genocides, atrocities of the Russian army and the War in Ukraine: continuity or change?

"Stalin's genocides, Soviet warfare, and atrocities of the Russian army: from Soviet mass crimes to the current war in Ukraine - continuity or change?" with Andrea Graziosi, Vladyslav Hrynevych and Jan C. Behrends, moderated by Kai Struve.
Genocidal violence was a characteristic feature of Stalin’s rule in the 1930s and 1940. Indeed, the Soviet Army-and now the Russians even more so-developed extremely brutal methods of waging war that disregarded both international law and protection of the civilian population, to say nothing of the lives of their own soldiers.
This seminar explored the historical underpinnings of the Russian atrocities in Ukraine today and took place on September 8, 2022.
It is part of the "Historians and the War: Rethinking the Future“ webinar-series, which is a joint initiative of the German-Ukrainian Historians' Commission, the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies, the Department of Eastern European History at Munich University, the Ukraine-based scholarly journal Ukraina Moderna and the Ukrainian Catholic University, Lviv.
