Intersectional Turn in Gender Studies
Sociology in Russia
The Sexual Scripts and Identity of Middle-Class Russian Women
Using maternity capital
During the last decade Russian politics have aimed at stimulating the birth rate, most famously by the maternity capital program. This article provides results from the first extensive study of citizen use and attitudes to this benefit and concludes that Russian women and families harbor a deep distrust of the program and Russian social policy, as it sends contradictory messages combining paternalistic and liberal trends. Many eligible mothers ha…
Gender's crooked path
In this article we discuss the uneasy development of gender studies in Russia as one example of public sociology. For empirical evidence we concentrate mainly on our own experience in the Gender Studies Program at the European University in St. Petersburg, but we also refer to the other cases. We observe how the political and academic context of the 1990s created opportunities for academic innovations that ideologically challenged Soviet patriarc…
What is Russian Sociological Tradition? Debates among Russian Sociologists
Make Way for Professional Sociology
This article presents the context of the current debate on the status of sociology in Russia, maps the controversy between professional and public sociology and locates the public sociology agenda in the context of a fight for professional sociology using the case of sociological education. To test the thesis of sociological internationalism, it is necessary to take into account local contexts, especially three aspects: the political opportunitie…
Who Helps the Degraded Housewife
This article analyses the new demographic programme that was announced by the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, in 2006. The main goal of this programme is to encourage fertility, especially the birth of a second child. New benefits should elevate the status of wome taking maternity leave, who might otherwise suffer from discrimination in the family. The housewife is considered to be dependent and `degraded'. We argue that this demographic polit…
Gender Studies in Post-Soviet Society
The Informal Public in Soviet Society
THE concept of informal public is used here to designate the diversity of state-independent activities and interactions in late Soviet society. Segments of this informal sphere—which is different from the official public sphere—had begun to develop at the end of the 1950s. Unlike previous periods of Soviet history, when communication had been officially controlled or had taken place in the private “kitchen” setting, the Brezhnev era of stagnation…
Overview of the Feminist Movement in Contemporary Russia
Feminist groups in Russia are rather recent initiatives. Most of them were organized in the very end of the cycle of mass protest mobilization in the end of 1989 - beginning of 1990s. 1990 is a starting point for Russian feminism. Moscow is an unquestionable center of Russian feminism. There are also feminist groups in St. Petersburg, Tver, Naberezhnye Chelny, Myrny, Petroskoi and other cities of Russia - industrial and educational centres. Some …
Die Konstruktion der › arbeitenden Mutter‹ und die Krise der Männlichkeit
Opportunities and framing in the transition to democracy
Until recently, Russian sociologists couldn't study social movements in their own country because there weren't any. Today, with the explosion of collective actions in the former Soviet Union, researchers are trying to develop genuine approaches to them. Cultural and political conduciveness, opportunities, and resources are very specific to the Russian transition to democracy, and this will influence proposed explanatory models. I believe the Rus…

A Moral Career of Caring for Elderly Relatives Living with Dementia
The article examines the practices of “dense care,” intensive long-term care for elderly relatives with dementia. Family care is conceptualized as a moral career of care, which makes it possible to detect changes in the status and identity of the relative during the care process. Drawing on in-depth interviews with relatives and materials of participant observation, we analyze main characteristics of daily care, problems faced by relatives, insti…
