Description

Explore the complex history of post-socialism through the lens of cross-border petty trade and smuggling. This academic work examines how daily life practices change when political borders shift into social boundaries. Focusing on the specific border region between Belarus and Lithuania, the book provides a deep look at how border regimes influence social groups. Readers will learn how the selective openness of the Belarus-Lithuania border has functioned over the last twenty years. By analyzing these changes from a gendered perspective, the text explains how shifts in border policy both accompany and provoke changes in local trade practices. This study is an essential resource for those interested in how political structures impact the everyday activities and livelihoods of people living in border zones.
