In Memory of Elena Trubina

It is with profound sadness that we learned of the sudden passing of Elena Trubina, philosopher, social theorist, and one of the leading scholars of urban studies and urban culture.

For many years, Elena collaborated with the European Humanities University and served as a member of the Scientific Advisory Board of Topos. To many of us, Elena was not only an outstanding scholar and a generous colleague, but also a true friend—reliable, thoughtful, and deeply supportive.

We are sincerely grateful for her long-standing support of the journal, her intellectual generosity, and her invaluable contribution to our academic community.

We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, colleagues, and students.

May her memory endure.
