At the height of the tangerine season in Russia, Oleg Korneev, Academic Supervisor of the BA programme “International Relations and Global Studies” (IRGS) visited Oran (Algeria). The province of Oran is the birthplace and the veritable capital of clementines, which makes visiting it in winter especially symbolic. But Oran is known not only for its sweet sunny citrus fruits, rai music, urban legends from the times of the plague, inimitable architectural blends and unique seaside atmosphere that inspired works of Albert Camus and creations of Yves Saint Laurent. This second-largest city in Algeria is also an authoritative business and cultural centre, and a major pole of research and higher education in the country.
