The Babushka Phenomenon: Older Women and the Political Sociology of Ageing in Russia - Fringe
Anna Shadrina
The Babushka Phenomenon examines the social production of ageing in post-Soviet Russia, highlighting the role of grandmothers as primary caregivers due to men's traditional estrangement from family life. The book argues that older Russian women actively engage in economic citizenship, despite prioritizing others' interests.
