Coming back to spread the word about a very special publication, out today🥳 For history buffs and those who like like to dabble in true crime, here it is: To Kill a Spy, a historical investigation of a 1910 murder in Kraków that unravels everyday nationalism, radicalization and espionage paranoia.

This much for academia being somehow above or outside the war: this is the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, and these are our colleagues, engaged in the same work we do. This is also late punishment for the instrumental role the Academy played in the late 1980s in the struggle for independence.

In the Second World War, women were active and effective SOE agents. But are they mainly remembered today through their glamour and tragedy? In our latest New Voices blog, Danielle Wirsansky offers a more nuanced picture, dissecting why the phrase 'lady spy' is so limiting. ⬇️ tinyurl.com/5dfnyjz3
