Opis

How do immigration and refugee laws work 'in action' in Russia? This book offers a complex, empirical and nuanced understanding.

Recenzje

'Altogether, the book represents an important and timely contribution to the existing scholarship on Russian immigration and asylum law, a fascinating yet clearly under-researched area. Written in a lively and engaging style, the present study is highly recommended not only to scholars working in the fields of migration and mobility, but also to general readers broadly interested in the subject.' Aleksandra Jolkina, Europe-Asia Studies
