Convened by Professor Edmund Herzig and Dr Stephanie Cronin and supported by the Roshan Cultural Heritage Institute. This workshop examins, as its disciplinary focus, Russian/Soviet historical research on Iran and the Persian-speaking world. It has three objectives. It seeks to acquaint a wider audience in western Europe and the US with the work of Russian/Soviet scholars of the history of Iran and the Persian-speaking world; to initiate a discussion of possible new directions in historical research on this region opened up by the wider availability of Russian source materials, and to begin to integrate an analysis of Russian/Soviet Iranian studies into the critique of Russian Orientalism, derived from Edward Said, which has emerged since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
