Description

This comprehensive examination explores informal economic practices across former socialist regions, from Central Europe to the Baltics and Central Asia. The book moves beyond viewing informality as simply opposed to the formal sector, instead revealing how informal transactions operate fluidly across boundaries between illegal, illicit, socially acceptable and symbolically meaningful practices. Through detailed case studies, readers encounter smugglers, entrepreneurs, blue-collar workers and taxi drivers engaged in real-world economic survival and advancement. The Routledge Contemporary Russia and Eastern Europe Series volume combines ethnographic research with theoretical frameworks to illuminate how ordinary people navigate economic life in post-socialist contexts. Essential reading for anthropologists, sociologists and anyone seeking to understand the complex realities of informal economies in transitional societies.
