I am trained as a historian, but currently my research pertains mostly to post-Soviet and present-day Russia. Anyway, I was always interested in ideologies, utopias, and political imagination. My publications are mostly about the right-wing and conservative political ideas, about those who produce them: political and cultural figures and religious intellectuals, - and about the ways in which these ideas are produced: political discourses, academic and pseudo-academic works, science fiction, media memes and so on. My most recent co-edited volumes are: Contemporary Russian Conservatism: Problems, Paradoxes and Dangers (Leiden: Brill, 2019), and The Post-Soviet Politics of Utopia: Language, Fiction and Fantasy in Russia (London: Bloomsbury, 2019).
