Resumo
This article addresses the logic of the civic field in Russia as it unfolded during the 1990s and early 2000s. It engages with Bourdieu's theory of practice to explain how and why this field came to be symbolically associated with a particular notion of femininity, and how and why educated women came to occupy a particularly seminal position in it. By drawing on extensive fieldwork on civic activism and a rich body of secondary literature the article unpacks the complex interplay between symbolic and material practices that gave shape to this specific classed and gendered logic.
