Biznesslanch is – as the helpful man in this obscure Soviet poster is explaining to the acclaiming masses – a blog about Russia. I’m not sure more explanation is needed, but in case you are hankering for just there, here you go. Biznesslanch is the latest iteration of a blog on politics and civil society as well as occasionally culture and sport in Russia and the former Soviet Union. It also features reviews of English-language books relating (however tenuously) to the region.

I am always interested in featuring guest articles and opinions here so please feel free to contact me if you want to pitch an idea.

About the Author

TE Wonder: I started the original Biznesslanch as a way to keep friends and family updated on his life in Mytishchi, Russia where I lived for almost two years. I graduated from the University of Virginia and currently live outside Washington D.C. I don’t claim any special knowledge of Russia or anything I write about other than what you read here.
