Routledge Library Editions: Soviet Society gathers together 27 previously out-of-print titles from our classic backlist to form an important reference collection on the many aspects of society in the Soviet Union. The power of the state infiltrated all aspects of life under Soviet authority, and these books collected here examine schools and education, family life and marriage, social inequality and mobility, race relations, healthcare, the legal system, the arts and literature, religion, gender and other topics besides.
