Race and Racism in Russia identifies the striking changes in racial ideas, practices, exclusions and violence in Russia since the 1990s, revealing how 'Russianness' has become a synonym for racial whiteness. This ground-breaking book provides new theories and substantive insights into race and ethnicity in a Russian context.

Nikolay Zakharov is Senior Lecturer of Sociology in the School of Social Sciences at Södertörn University, Sweden. He holds PhDs from Moscow State University, Russia and Uppsala University, Sweden.
