On this week’s episode of Yeah Nah Pasaran! on 3CR we talk to Dr Robert Horvath [Twitter]. As well as being a lecturer in Politics at La Trobe University and the author of Putin’s Fascists: Russkii Obraz and the Politics of Managed Nationalism in Russia (Routledge, 2021), Robert has the distinction of recently having joined a list of 121 Australians banned from traveling to Russia by its Foreign Ministry because ‘Russophobia’. We spoke to Robert about his book, fascism and the far right in Russia and the war in Ukraine (and in doing so I’ve recalled having blogged at some length about the state repression of and murderous neo-Nazi violence being directed at anti-fascists in Russia).
