Centre for Eurasian, Russian, and East European Studies (CEREES) panel discussion
Russia’s prisons are the unseen side of Russia’s repression of dissent and opposition. This event includes UK experts on the Russian legal and penal system (Profs Judith Pallott, Helsinki; and Bill Bowring, Birkbeck), alongside campaigners for prisoners’ rights in Russia (Sergei Davidis, Memorial), and in the territories of Ukraine, temporarily occupied by Russia (Yevgeniy Zakharov, director of the Kharkiv Human Rights Protection Group).
The event is organised by the Centre for Eurasian, Russian, and East European Studies (CEREES) and promoted by the IHSS.
