Welcome to my site. I am Oleksa Drachewych (PhD, McMaster University, 2017), an Assistant Professor in the Department of History at Western University and a sessional lecturer in history at King’s University College. I specialize in Global history, with expertise in Soviet history, the history of international communism, the history of human and civil rights movements, and the history of international relations in the twentieth century. I also serve as the network editor for H-Russia, a network of H-Net.

Here you will find information about my current research projects, my publications and when time permits, some of my thoughts in blog form, about interesting documents, historiographical interventions, and what not.
