Across the Tundra explores how the Koryak people experienced and interpreted the hardships brought on by changing living conditions on the periphery of post-Soviet Russia.
Retman places the lives of women in the villages of Tymlat and Ossora in northern Kamchatka within the broader context of issues that she argues are central to Koryak everyday life: sexuality, state power, and marginalization.
Using gender as a lens through which to examine broader concepts, Retman explores the perspectives and strategies of Koryak women and men as they attempt to mitigate the dire consequences of political and socioeconomic disruption.
