"Petra Rethmann's evocative Tundra Passages breaks completely new ground in ethnography from the Russian Far East. Drawing on conversations and experiences shared with Koriak women living on northeastern Kamchatka peninsula, she conveys the human dignity and creative energy that persist in the midst of social suffering following the breakdown of the Soviet empire. Rethmann demonstrates how historical conditions and regional inequalities affect the lives of women who struggle to make a better world for themselves and their families. This is ethnography at its very best." -Julie Cruikshank, University of British Columbia, &"This book is important for anyone hoping to keep pace with the whirlwind of change besetting Native Siberia.

Synopsis
Koriak have been described as a nomadic people, migrating with the reindeer through rugged terrain. Their autonomy and mobility are salient cultural features that ethnographers and state administrators have found equally fascinating and menacing. Tundra Passages describes how this indigenous people in the Russian Far East have experienced, interpreted, and struggled with the changing conditions of life on the periphery of post-Soviet Russia. Rethmann portrays the lives of Koriak women in the locales of Tymlat and Ossora in northern Kamchatka, within a wider framework of sexuality, state power, and marginalization, which she sees as central to the Koriak experience of everyday life. Using gender as a lens through which to examine wider issues of history, disempowerment, and marginalization, she explores the interpretations and strategies employed by Koriak women and men to ameliorate the austere effects of political and socioeconomic disorder. Rethmann's innovative work combines historical and ethnographic descriptions of Koriak life, narration, and practices of gender and history. With the demise of the Soviet Union, scholars have begun an active discussion of the political processes that affect marginalized and indigenous peoples in Russia. This work contributes to this discussion by revealing the tensions and potentially contradictory strategies of indigenous people within a world shaken by change, uncertainty, and disorder.

- a***9 (182)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Último añoCompra verificadaThe games and cases were in great condition and came as described. They were packaged well, and shipped fast. It was a fantastic price and a great value. I will say though one of the games gets stuck on the loading screen and won't go any further. I messaged the seller and advised of the issue and without hesitation they apologized and was willing to issue a partial refund for the one game that didn't work. Overall I am happy with my purchase. I will buy from this seller again.Ford Racing 3 And Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero PS2 Games Tested (#176772706565)
