Vladislav Siyutkin, Pensioners, and Politics with Ahmed Elghandour
Channel: Conversations On-Campus
Date: 2020-04-27

Conversations On-Campus is a student initiative to memorize the conversations that take place on-campus. Ahmed Elghandour and Sonya Brudkova are students at the School of Advanced Studies (SAS), Tyumen, who try to interview students and professors to discuss interesting, illuminating topics in the light of intellectual, academic discourse.


Our first guest is Vladislav Siyutkin, who is a third-year student at the School of Advanced Studies (SAS), Tyumen, Russia. Vladislav speaks about his thesis paper, Pensioners' Political Discourse. He tries to draw the attention that it is a stereotype to think about pensioners as conservationists who idealize the Soviet Union era. Instead, they try to be a participant in the period of depoliticization of Russia. During the discussion, Ahmed tries to get a clear understanding of whether we can build a bridge of communication between generations or not and the future of Russian Policy.
