The Hoover Institution Archives is proud to announce its tenth annual Workshop on China
and Russia, which will run from July 22 to August 3. The workshop has given more than
one hundred visiting scholars the opportunity to study the Hoover Archives’ extensive collections on totalitarian regimes. This year will focus on the archives’ rich collections on China, Russia, and Iraq. We have invited fourteen experts from US and international universities and research centers, including researchers from the Ukrainian Archival Service, the Free University of Berlin, the French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, Harvard University, George Washington University, and the US Naval War College. The workshop thus brings invited guests together with Hoover fellows and Stanford faculty to conduct research in the Hoover Library and Archives and exchange ideas at lunchtime seminars. The Chinese KMT archives, the Archives of the Communist Party, and the recently acquired KGB archives and Ba’ath Party archives are among the archival sources that researchers will examine. Additionally, presentations by Robert Service and Amir Weiner will take place during the workshop.
