Abstract
by extremists (87). “The slogan ‘white power’ in Russia... [was] the rallying cry” (88). Avrutin notes, while polls show that support for extremist groups is relatively low, xenophobia remains high (103), and he cautions, “an important shift took place in how ethnic Russians viewed themselves and the world around them... [now through] the prism of race and whiteness (107).” This slim volume raises useful questions. But, it is best included alongside more detailed explorations of racism in Russia.
