Blair A. Ruble, director of the Kennan Institute for Advanced Russian Studies of the Woodrow Wilson Center in Washington, D.C., and program director for Comparative Urban Studies at the Woodrow Wilson Center, will present his talk “Diversity in the Contemporary Russian City” Wednesday, Feb. 10, at 7:30 p.m. at Frostburg State University in Dunkle Hall room 218.
Ruble has edited a dozen volumes and is the author of five monographic studies. His most recent monographic study – “Creating Diversity Capital” – examined the changes in such cities as Montreal, Washington, D.C., and Kyiv (Kiev) brought about by the recent arrival of large trans-national communities.
Ruble’s talk is sponsored by the Martha T. and Ralph M. Race Western History Lecture Series funded through the FSU Foundation under the auspices of the Department of History.
