The Predicament of Chukotka's Indigenous Movement: Post-Soviet Activism in the Russian Far North

Patty A. Gray

4.9/5 (9575 ratings)

Description:The Predicament of Chukotka’s Indigenous Movement is the first ethnography of the Russian North to focus on post-Soviet relations of domination between an indigenous minority and a non-indigenous majority in an urban setting. As Patty A. Gray investigates indigenous attempts in Chukotka to overcome this domination, she develops an anthropological approach to social movements that captures the “in-between” activity that is more than everyday resistance, but less than a full-blown movement. In the process, this book explores the post-Soviet transformation as it occurred in the part of Russia that is America’s closest Eurasian neighbor: Chukotka, which nearly touches Alaska across the Bering Strait. Gray charts the political transformation in Chukotka in the 1990s as its administration sought to represent itself as “democratic” while becoming ever more repressive, and demonstrates how the indigenous population in particular suffered under this new form of domination. The “predicament” refers to how the nascent indigenous movement was prepared to address Soviet-style domination and instead was confronted with this “new Russian” style.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
