Description
"Researcher Clementine K. Fujimara takes us across history, into Russian society, its orphanages and shelters, and along the streets of the nation to see how abandoned and orphaned children are stigmatized and shunned. We also come to understand how and why these children form their own culture to find power and to survive. This pioneering work on child abandonment looks at Russian society from a new angle: from the perspectives of abandoned youngsters and their caretakers.
Description
Based on direct observation of and interviews with abandoned children, this work shows why any effort to rescue these children calls for a deep understanding of Russian culture, and why any effort to affect abandonment in Russia calls for a joint effort between psychologists, social workers, and the children themselves."--Jacket.
