The Making and Unmaking of the Ukrainian Working Class : Everyday Politics and Moral Economy in a Post-Soviet City, Hardback Book

The Making and Unmaking of the Ukrainian Working Class : Everyday Politics and Moral Economy in a Post-Soviet City Hardback

Part of the Dislocations series

Hardback

Description

Industrial workers in Ukraine have a complex political lifeworld because their political action aimed at bringing radical social change coexists with a demobilizing stance that condemns all political participation as corrupt.

This contradictory attitude to politics defines the character of populist mass mobilizations that shook Ukraine in 2004 and 2014, as well as the electoral overhaul of 2019 and the popular response to the Russian invasion in 2022.

Based on three years of fieldwork in the city of Kryvyi Rih, the book focuses on the moral economy that constitutes the working class and structures its relations with other social groups.
