Join us on Friday 26th June, in the Museum at 2pm, as Lee Steptoe explores how the turmoil and instability at the end of World War I led to the collapse of democracy in Italy, Russia, and Germany, paving the way for the rise of authoritarian leaders and totalitarian regimes. This is the fifth talk in our ‘20th Century International History’ series, presented by Lee throughout 2026. You can purchase a Series Ticket for access to all ten talks.
