Every now and then I like to write a short article pointing out the latest new (or, at least, new to me) blogs about Russia. It’s been a while since the last article like this, so as you can imagine, there are quite a few cool new Russia blogs out there.

First up is Soviet Russia - perhaps a unique dual-language blog about Russia. Instead of a Russian-English blog, it’s a Spanish-English blog. Every post will go up first in Spanish, and then in English.

Award for the best-subtitle on a Russia blog has to go to A Russia of My Own. How could anyone resist the temptation to read “The [Swedish] Bombshell’s guide to Higer Education [in Russia]”?

Da Russophile has actually been running for a few months now. I’d imagine their view of Russia is going to wind up a few:

Russia is a normal country with a booming non-hydrocarbons economy underpinned by a well-educated and secular workforce. The Putin administration has affirmed democratic values, worked to improve human rights and pursued Russia’s national interests abroad.

Russian Language and Culture has also been around for quite a while - I’m not quite sure how I missed it before.

There are a couple of new Russian history blogs out there too. First up is Igor’s Russian History Blog - Igor is a History professor at a US college, and the content will be used for his history classes.

Meanwhile, Russian History Blog has been resurrected under its new author - Translatorus.

Hmmm, that’s about it for this roundup. I think I’ve picked out all the new blogs, but if you’ve spotted any that I’ve missed then drop me a line, or leave a comment below.
