About This Week’s Guest Mark Steinberg
Mark Steinberg is Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
He is the author of many books and articles on the Russian Revolution, urban history, religion, emotions, and utopias, including Proletarian Imagination: Self, Modernity, and the Sacred in Russia, 1910-1925 (Cornell 2002; Russian Edition 2022), Petersburg Fin-de-Siècle (Yale 2011), The Russian Revolution, 1905-1921 (Oxford 2017; Russian Edition 2018), the seventh through ninth (2018) editions of A History of Russia with Nicholas Riasanovsky (Oxford), and Russian Utopia: A Century of Revolutionary Possibilities, in the book series “Russian Shorts” (Bloomsbury 2021).

He is currently working on the tenth edition of A History of Russia, which will appear in early 2024, and on Crooked and Straight in the City: Moral Storytelling on the Streets of New York, Bombay, and Odessa in the 1920s.
“Russia is not only Vladimir Putin”
Mark’s tips to become more culturally competent:
- Whatever you think you know about Russia is true, you’re wrong. Russia is not (only) Putin. Rember the diversity
- To really know Russia you need to know Russians. Spend some time not with the elite but with the individual people
- Read about the news and the country Russia.
