Anotácia knihy

Through in-depth interviews with activists, the authors provide a broad and thorough introduction to the emerging women's movement and women's organizations in Russia. The focus is on the development of women's activism in late Soviet and post-Soviet Russia and the challenges for activists in a time of resurgent nationalism and turmoil over democratic reform. Linda Racioppi and Katherine O'Sullivan See present a concise history of women's situation in tsarist and Soviet Russia, which shows how their ability to organize was constrained by social strictures and state policies. They also analyze how the state-sponsored Soviet Women's Committee and new groups like the Independent Women's Forum, the Women's League, and the International Institute for Entrepreneurial Development responded to the challenges and opportunities of the transition. The authors examine the dynamics among these groups as well. The personal life histories of the activists reflect the ways women have responded to the changing political, economic, and social landscape in the former Soviet Union. Author note: Linda Racioppi teaches at James Madison College, Michigan State University. Racioppi is the author of Soviet Policy towards South Asia since 1970, Katherine O'Sullivan See teaches at James Madison College, Michigan State University. See is the author of "First World Nationalisms: Class and Ethnic Politics in Northern Ireland and Quebec."
