'Rethinking Rural Politics in Post-Socialist Settings'
On Wednesday 23 November Natalia Mamonova successfully defended her PhD thesis on 'Rethinking Rural Politics in Post-Socialist Settings' in which she investigates official rural politics (the state politics of resource allocation and large-scale agricultural development); politics of organized rural resistance and mobilisation; and everyday unorganized rural practices of adaptation, compliance, resistance and acquiescence in contemporary Russia and Ukraine.
