Roman Krakovsky&#8217;s examination of the region&#8217;s long-term economic and political trends will shed light on the origins of this phenomenon. This historical perspective offers a crucial framework for understanding the intricate its different facets, tracking its evolution, and predicting its influence on the political and social landscape of Central and Eastern Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About the Speaker&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Roman Krakovsky is Assistant Professor in the Department of History at the University of Ottawa and holder of the Chair in Slovak History and Culture.
