Tundroviki

Sinopse

"This translation of the work of a Canadian ethnographer examines the lives of Evenkis and Dolgans living in the Arctic zone of central Siberia. Based upon long-term field research and participant observation, the author describes the institutions of everyday life within one state farm focusing upon the inter-relationship between villagers and tundra-dwellers, the role of state agencies in codifying identity, and the importance of territoriality in Soviet and post-Soviet politics"--T.p. verso.
