Sonja Luehrmann is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Simon Fraser University. She has published two books on atheism and religion in the Soviet Union and post-Soviet Russia. Her current research deals with anti-abortion activism and the movement to restore "traditional family values" in the Russian Orthodox Church.

In her previous talk for us, Dr Luehrmann talked about the use of anti-religion/pro-atheist propaganda in the Soviet Union.

In this talk, Dr Luehrmann will talk about her current research on religion and anti-abortion activism in contemporary Russia.
