War correspondent and journalist Marc Marginedas will deliver a lecture on 19 November at 10:00 a.m. in Visionado 1, in a session organized by professor Martín Vaz. Focusing on Vladimir Putin’s Russia and the movements that have followed its model, Marginedas will address what he has described as “an unparalleled challenge for the journalistic profession.”
Until 2022, he served as El Periódico’s correspondent in Moscow. Over more than two decades, he has reported on international conflicts in Algeria, Chechnya, Darfur, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Lebanon, as well as on the Arab uprisings. He is the author of Journalism on the Battlefield (Periodismo en el campo de batalla, RBA, 2012) and Russia Against the World (Rusia contra el mundo, Península, 2025), an investigation into Russia’s role as a major force of global destabilization.
Throughout his career, he has received several awards, including the Cirilo Rodríguez Award (2013), the National Communication Award (2013), and the Luka Brajnovic Award (2019).
