Vita

Anna Kalinina is a PhD candidate and scholarship holder at the Institute of Sociology and Cultural Organization. Her ongoing dissertation titled "From Self-Organization to Survival Organizing: Exploring Distributed Collective Action in the Case of the Russian Anti-war Ecology” explores how decentralized anti-war initiatives in and around Russia form a mode of collective agency called survival organizing—a practice that combines care, resistance, and infrastructure-building under conditions of repression and exile.

In 2022, Anna graduated from the master's program "Kulturwissenschaften: Medien und Digitale Kulturen" at Leuphana University, where she completed her master's thesis "Future-Proofing the New Soviet Subjects: Fostering Technical Creativity in the Cases of Andrei Ershov's Algorithmic Thinking and the Radio Enthusiasts Movement." Anna is affiliated with the independent collective of researchers of the Hannah Arendt Research Center and Centre for Digital Cultures.
