Based on extensive ethnographic and quantitative research,
conducted in Ukraine and Russia between 2004 and 2012, this book's
central argument is that for many people the informal economy, such
as cash in hand work, subsistence production and the use of social
networks, is of great importance to everyday life. Formal work is
both a facilitator of such processes and is often supported by
them, as people can only afford to undertake low paid formal work
as a result of their informal incomes. By looking at the informal
nature of formal work and practices, informal practices, gift
giving, volunteer work and the economies of the household the book
is one of the first to give an overview of the nature of the
informal economy in all spheres of everyday practice.
