Description

Explore the massive shift in Russian social science with this academic study from the Routledge Contemporary Russia and Eastern Europe Series. This book examines how anthropology in Russia changed following the end of the Soviet Union. During the Soviet era, anthropologists were heavily involved in state nation-building, focusing on official nationalities and heroic folklore while avoiding the realities of daily life. Since the collapse of communism, the field has undergone a total transformation. This text tracks the adoption of international research standards and the movement toward studying urban culture and sensitive social issues like xenophobia. It provides a necessary look at how the discipline moved away from state-controlled narratives to address contemporary Russian society. This is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in the sociological and anthropological evolution of Eastern Europe.
