This timely book offers a fresh perspective on the issue of
contemporary migratory labor, otkhodnichestvo, in Russia-the
temporary departure of inhabitants from small towns and villages
for short-term jobs in the major cities of Russia. Although
otkhodnichestvo is a mass phenomenon, it is not reflected in
official economic statistics. Based on numerous interviews with
otkhodniks and local experts, this stunningly original work focuses
on the central and northern regions of European Russia. The authors
draw a social portrait of the contemporary otkhodnik and offer a
sociological assessment of the economic and political status these
'wandering workers' live with.
