  "This well-crafted collection of essays brings together a comprehensive selection of new research on mobility in Russia from the Tsarist Empire's westernmost provinces to the Far East. Of worldwide interest to scholars in migration studies as well as East Europeanist studies."--Dirk Hoerder, author of Cultures in Contact: World Migrations in the Second Millennium,       "This well-crafted collection of essays brings together a comprehensive selection of new research on mobility in Russia from the Tsarist Empire's westernmost provinces to the Far East.

Of worldwide interest to scholars in migration studies as well as Eastern European studies.''--Dirk Hoerder, author of Cultures in Contact: World Migrations in the Second Millennium, "Highly recommended. Randolph and Avrutin have done much to place mobility into the mainstream of Russian historiography."-- The Russian Review, "This is an absorbing collection of essays that will repay reading by historians and social scientists. . . . A good introduction to the latest scholarship on the rewards but also the discontents and hidden injuries of migration."-- Slavic Review, "New ways of looking at Russian society are well exploited, and hitherto ignored or unnoticed facts are revealed about individuals or institutions. This is a book that really does repay its reader."-- The Slavonic and East European Review, "Highly recommended.  Randolph and Avrutin have done much to place mobility into the mainstream of Russian historiography."-- The Russian Review, "Highly recommended.  Randolph and Avrutin have done much to place mobility into the mainstream of Russian historiography."-- The Russian Review   "A meritorious contribution."-- Journal of Transport History, "This well-crafted collection of essays brings together a comprehensive selection of new research on mobility in Russia from the Tsarist Empire's westernmost provinces to the Far East.

Synopsis
Since its rapid imperial expansion in the seventeenth century, Russia's politics, society, and culture have exerted a profound influence on movement throughout Eurasia. The circulation of people, information, and things across Russian space transformed populations, restructured collective and individual identities, and created enduring legacies. This volume represents the latest discoveries of scholars attempting to rediscover this experience, and to understand its lasting meaning for today. These gathered essays tell a broad range of stories, involving a remarkable cross-section of historical actors: imperial visionaries, stage-coach entrepreneurs, religious pilgrims, tourists, disability activists and metropolitan police, among others. The book illuminates three major themes: the role of human mobility in Russian governance; the processes by which people decide where and how to move; and the political and cultural power of different kinds of movement. A strong contribution to our understanding of the history of Russia and the Soviet Union, this volume offers new models of research for historians, sociologists, political scientists, and others who are seeking to integrate the study of human mobility into their work.

This is an outstanding seller to deal with. Fair prices that are more than reasonable in this economy, a true value for my money. Packaging and shipping shows concern for the products to arrive in good condition. The seller communicates timely with his customers. I recommend this seller and would do business again. Thank you.
