Joint Statement of Opposition to Banning Scholars Based on Citizenship
The statement below, along with its translation in Ukrainian and Russian, can found on the ASEEES website<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aseees.org%2Fadvocacy%2Fjoint-statement-opposition-banning-scholars-based-citizenship&data=04%7C01%7Caseees%40list.pitt.edu%7C15f4ddca94bf44c1851708da023c0589%7C9ef9f489e0a04eeb87cc3a526112fd0d%7C1%7C0%7C637824754048581755%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=vCUtrZPTTJfN46CbdRL7e9PI0Bl0iXBeKYBRkILOlgI%3D&reserved=0>.

As international professional associations that foster the study of Slavic, East European, and Eurasian peoples and cultures, ASEEES, BASEES, and AATSEEL* are committed to promoting international communication among scholars of all countries and identities across the humanities and social sciences. Open exchange and mutual respect among our members are fundamental to our principles.

We have all expressed our unequivocal condemnation of Russia's war on Ukraine. We oppose Putin's assault on Ukrainian sovereignty. We are horrified by the Russian military's unconscionable assaults on civilians and the escalating refugee crisis unfolding before our eyes. Since we have choices about our actions that people living in fear under attack do not have, we join those who call for cutting our formal ties with institutions and with academics who are actively supporting the Russian war effort.

We want to do everything we can to show our support for Ukrainian scholars and students. At the same time, we are concerned about calls for blanket bans on the participation of individual Russians and Belarusians in scholarly events and scholarly exchange.

We strongly oppose the vilification and exclusion of our Russian and Belarusian students and colleagues. Banning Russians and Belarusians based solely on their citizenship goes against our fundamental principles of scholarship, open communication, and dialogue. Such sanctions have the potential to harm those living in authoritarian regimes who are opposed to the war. We encourage all members of our community who stand against the war in Ukraine to come together and support our students and colleagues.

ASEEES Initiative for Diversity and Inclusion
ASEEES is delighted to continue the Initiative for Diversity and Inclusion for its second year. We invite our BIPOC (black, Indigenous, and people of color) colleagues and current first-generation undergraduates of any race, gender, or ethnicity in Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Studies to participate. The goal of the Initiative is to continue to provide structural support for our community of BIPOC and underrepresented students, scholars, and professionals in the United States so that they can network, share their experiences, and participate in a mentoring program. We are pleased to offer a complimentary two-year membership (2022-2023) for those who are eligible and are working on topics in Eastern Europe, Russia, and Eurasia in or outside the academy or those who have an MA or PhD in the field but are working in unrelated areas or disciplines.
