Religion and Media in Russia

Public lecture by Victor Khroul, Associate Professor at the Journalism Faculty of Moscow State University, who was at the CMCS for a three-month CEU Professorial Research Fellowship. In his lecture, Khroul asked: Can we understand religion without media, or media without religion? How do they interact in the public sphere as two social sub-systems? He placed these questions in the context of contemporary Russia and its challenges, problems and hopes.
