Biography: I am a 52-year-old professor of history whose
specialities are
Soviet history and Socialist and Communist thought and
movements.
This is my twenty-eighth year of teaching, all at the U
of R. While I
have a few publications, my primary interest is in
teaching the
bright and motivated students we draw. (We also draw
other kinds, but
I don't much enjoy teaching them.) My PhD is from Emory
University,
where I worked under Kermit McKenzie. My most recent
research
projects have been in the development of historically
based
interactive games for educational use. The only one in
the can is
based on the Russian Revolution, and I am trying to
develop one based
on Stalin's rise to power.
Interests: Soviet history and foreign policy, Comintern history,
19th century
theories and movements of social dissent.
