Isbn: 9781644695821 - All Shook Up: the Shifting Soviet Response to Catastrophes, 1917-1991 (13 results)

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. All Shook Up is the first full-length study to explore how the Soviet government and citizens responded to major disasters. Although traditional disaster studies focus on scientific aspects, All Shook Up looks at political repercussions and social opportunities that emerged after disasters. By juxtaposing the response to earthquakes in the Central Asian republics to nuclear catastrophe in Ukraine, Nigel Raab shows how Soviet citizens not only rebuilt devastated cities but also experimented with new values.

Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
