In October 2013, one of the largest anti-migrant riots took place
in Moscow. Clashes and arrests continued late into the night. Some
in the crowd, which grew to several thousand people, could be heard
chanting "Russia for the Russians" with their animus directed
towards dark-skinned labor migrants from the southern border. The
slogan "Russia for the Russians" is not a recent invention. It
first gained notoriety in the very last years of the tsarist
regime, appealing primarily to individuals drawn to the radical
right. Analyzing a wide range of printed and visual sources, Racism
in Modern Russia marks the first serious attempt to understand the
history of racism over a span of 150 years. A brilliant examination
of the complexities of racism, Eugene M. Avrutin's panoramic book
asks powerful questions about inequality and privilege, denigration
and belonging, power and policy, and the complex historical links
between race, whiteness, and geography. The ebook editions of this
book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license on
