planners paying particular attention to how the lack of profit competition led to more productive collaborations. Even as ideas began to solidify about what a new Soviet urbanism could be, the question of putting it into practice — and of actually shifting hegemony — was a much bigger question. The remoteness of Magnitogorsk added complications to the construction process, so even veteran architects and planners (including Ernst May from Germany) were unable to overcome the difficulties. Crawford’s final section explores how the concepts delved in Magnitogorsk were put into practice in the New Kharkiv sotsgorod. Even as the production focus in this city turned towards an increasingly centralized and standardized norm, adding in tweaks and other ‘architectural adjustments’ (priviazka, p. 221) was common, and built heterogeneity into the process. This combination of standardization mixed with priviazka would become the baseline of Soviet urban practice. Together, the three examples that this monograph delves into create a clear narrative of early Soviet urbanism, with each example acting as the proving ground for the following. As a structure (called ‘nodal history’, p. 4), this works extremely well, as it encourages the reader to dive into the particularities of each individual city (and the multiplicity of plans and projects within each city), while always emphasizing how each example adds to the bigger history. It also suggests avenues for future research, as additional case studies will add to this conversation, and explore new ways to ‘plan and build with equity as a principal concern’ (p. 299). As we continue to wrest with the confluences of issues in urban development (from environmental concerns to the ubiquity of online communities) and in political upheaval, I sincerely hope this book is a launching pad for a much bigger conversation.

Abstract:Crime and Punishment’s epilogue has troubled readers since the novel’s publication. Recent scholarship, however, has demonstrated that the epilogue deserves reexamination — that it sheds important light on many of the formal, generic and interpretive problems central to the novel proper. This paper proposes that Raskoĺnikov’s conspicuously unrepentant attitude to the very end can be read as calling into question the reality of his guilt. Specifically, I examine his third interview with Porfirii in which, I suggest, Porfirii performs a kind of surrogate confession, thus unsettling our sense of Raskoĺnikov’s ‘crime’ as straightforwardly a crime. Drawing on Kierkegaard’s exploration of Abrahamic faith in Fear and Trembling — his suggestion that the ethical and religious interpretations of Abraham’s terrifying act necessarily clash — I argue that Raskoĺnikov occupies this knife edge between murderer and man of faith.

Abstract:This article considers Konstantin Leont́ev’s political ideas and the place they occupy within the Russian conservative tradition. After first considering the similarities and differences between Russian and Western conservatism, the article surveys the origin of Konstantin Leont́ev’s political thought in his diplomatic career and his response to the Graeco-Bulgarian church controversy. It is argued that Leont́ev differed from most contemporary Russian conservatives in rejecting nationalism as a liberal phenomenon and by valuing Pan-Orthodox rather than Pan-Slavic unity. This suggests that his political thought can be seen as an echo of the ‘official nationalism’ associated with Nicholas I.
