Recenzii
[A]n excellent and compelling collection of essays.... [T]his book is a valuable addition to our understanding of not only a region heavily influenced by the Russian/Soviet colonial legacy, but also of the ways in which the everyday confronts often competing notions of identity. --Robert O. Krikorian, George Washington University"Journal of Colonialism & Colonial History e-jrnl" (01/01/2008)
