On the occasion of the centenary of the Russian Revolution of 1917, the
Centre d'Estudis Històrics Internacionals of the University of Barcelona
(Center for International Historical Studies, CEHI-UB) has carried out a
number of academic initiatives to deepen the study of the Russian
revolutionary phenomenon, as well as the repercussions and the long-term
consequences of that momentous event.
Among the most significant results of the collective work done by
CEHI-UB members, we can mention a series of lectures about the
Revolution organised by the University of Barcelona; a course for
university students held throughout the spring of 2017; and the
publication, in book format, of a collection of essays by a Spanish
publishing house (Andreu Mayayo and José Manuel Rúa, eds., Y el mundo
cambió de base. Una mirada histórica a la Revolución Rusa). As a
conclusion of this work, the University of Barcelona has held, in October
2017, an international congress (Centenary of the Russian Revolution,
1917-2017), that has been attended by leading specialists in the field, both
Spanish and foreign.
This volume collects all the conference papers, expanded and revised
for English publication; it is also further enriched by the inclusion of three
chapters expressly written for the book, as well as an introduction and
final conclusions that help contextualise the text and confer coherence.
