Elena Shulman reveals the instrumental part these migrants played in the extension of Soviet state power and cultural dominion in the region. Their remarkable stories, recovered from archival letters, party documents, memoirs, press coverage and films, shed new light on Soviet women's roles in state formation, the role of frontier Stalinism in structuring gender ideals and the nature of Soviet society and Stalinism in the 1930s. Through these narratives Elena Shulman offers a nuanced picture of the world of the frontier as well as the complexities of women's lives under Stalin and the limits of Moscow's rule over the periphery and even the Gulag. 606 $aWomen$zRussia (Federation)$zRussian Far East$xHistory 606 $aMigration, Internal$zSoviet Union$xHistory 606 $aWomen and socialism$zSoviet Union$xHistory 615 0$aWomen$xHistory. 615 0$aMigration, Internal$xHistory. 615 0$aWomen and socialism$xHistory. 676 $a305.48/89171057709043 700 $aShulman$b Elena$f1969-$01020649 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248299203316 996 $aStalinism on the frontier of empire$92414553 997 $aUNISA
