Women's Roles and Agency in Russian Society Before and During the War in Ukraine tracks Russian societal development and transformation as reflected in women’s experiences, views, and agency. This book explores women's roles in various sectors of Russian society, including the labor market in the 1990s, entrepreneurship, politics, the social sector, and their engagement in civil society. The author employs interviews describing the experiences, views, and agency of Russian women in leading positions in the social services, NGOs, and elsewhere that serve to help vulnerable women. Their stories make visible how women's agency has changed in the face of growing authoritarianism in the region. Their work and position have become more perilous in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine War, and the increased attempts by authorities to cover up and silence social unrest.
