The Entangled Borderlands<\/strong> project aims to shed light on the interconnected histories of Romanov imperial border regions from 1860\u20131917 that have been neglected in traditional historical studies. It will do so by examining perceptions, ideas and concepts, and personal experiences <\/strong>of intra-imperial entanglement, as they were visualised on maps<\/strong>, understood<\/strong> intellectually<\/strong>, and experienced in urban spaces<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim of the project is to bring to light histories of imperial border regions that have been rendered less visible in mainstream historiographies and explore how we might see these points of encounter as constitutive of the very fabric of the Romanov Empire, rather than just a byproduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project also aspires to interject a Baltic perspective into ongoing discussions about the decolonisation of imperial pasts and methodologically advance approaches for writing more polycentric histories through uncovering these lesser-known horizontal entanglements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is based at the Centre for East European and Eurasian Studies (CEURUS) <\/a>at the Johan Skytte Institute of Political Studies<\/a>, University of Tartu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is funded by the Estonian Research Council (Grant no. PSG1042) and runs from 2025\u20132029.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
