This book examines a number of key questions about social change in contemporary Russia.

This book examines a number of key questions about social change in contemporary Russia - issues such as how people survive when they are not paid for months on end, ''the New Poor'', the falling birth rate, why so many Russian men die in middle age, whether regional identities are becoming stronger, and how people''s sense of ''Russianness'' has developed since the creation of the Russian Federation in 1992. It examines these issues by looking at actual experiences in three small Russian towns. It includes a great deal of original ethnographic research, and, by looking at real places overall, provides a good sense of how different aspects of social change are interlinked, and how they actually affect real people''s lives.
