In this interdisciplinary volume Adrienne Edgar and Benjamin Frommer have drawn contributions from anthropologists and historians. The contributors explore the phenomenon of intermarriage both from the top down, in the form of state policies and official categories, and from the bottom up, through an intimate look at the experience and agency of mixed families in modern states determined to control the lives and identities of their citizens to an unprecedented degree. Contributors address the tensions between state ethnic categories and the subjective identities of individuals, the status of mixed individuals and families in a region characterized by continual changes in national borders and regimes, and the role of intermarried couples and their descendants in imagining supranational communities. The first of its kind, 'Intermarriage from Central Europe to Central Asia' is a foundational text for the study of intermarriage and ethnic mixing in Eastern Europe and Eurasia."--taken from back cover. 504 Includes bibliographical references and index. 520 "Edgar and Frommer bring together international and interdisciplinary scholarship to analyze interethnic and interracial marriage in Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, and Central Asia"-- |cProvided by publisher. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Intermarriage |zEurope, Eastern |xHistory. 650 0 Intermarriage |zAsia, Central |xHistory. 650 7 Intermarriage. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00976458 651 7 Central Asia. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01240497 651 7 Eastern Europe. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01245079 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 Edgar, Adrienne Lynn, |d1960- |eeditor. 700 1 Frommer, Benjamin, |d1969- |eeditor. 830 0 Borderlands and transcultural studies. 852 0 |bscstacks |hHQ1031 |iI5686 2020
