It is with great sadness that we have learned of the death of Arsenii Borisovich Roginskii historian, human rights activist and supremely honest and courageous man. I am sure that all BASEES members will join with me in conveying our sympathy to all his colleagues in NGO Memorial, his friends and family. He will be sorely missed.
