We know relatively little about how migrants adapt to a new legal environment in the ever-growing hybrid political regimes that are neither clearly democratic nor conventionally authoritarian. This book takes up the case of Russia--an archetypal hybrid political regime and the third largest recipients of migrants worldwide--and investigates how Central Asian migrant workers produce new forms of informal governance and legal order. Migrants use the opportunities provided by a weak rule-of-law and a corrupt political system to navigate the repressive legal landscape and to negotiate--using informal channels--access to employment and other opportunities that are hard to obtain through the official legal framework of their host country. This lively ethnography presents new theoretical perspectives for studying immigrant legal incorporation in similar political contexts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rustamjon Urinboyev\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520299574\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520299573\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.60d","brand":"Rustamjon Urinboyev","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43990795485439,"sku":"9780520299573","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bd3c7e2c-5f65-4ce0-b69d-8b4656d4c4d2.jpg?v=1683306731","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/migration-and-hybrid-political-regimes-rustamjon-urinboyev-9780520299573","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
