Recenzii
" - an original and thought-provoking study [that is]firmly situated in the relevant Russian, Soviet and post-Soviet ethnographic and historical literature - It also makes excellent use of the extensive Russian ethnographic work in this region." * Julie Cruikshank, University of British Columbia " - a very good study, compellingly and confidently written, which covered a relatively unknown subject - The ethnography of this book is excellent." * Heather Montgomery, The Open University, UK
