Portraits of Change is a project that explores the transformation in Mongolia resulting from the collapse of socialism there, the transition period that followed, and the market economy that emerged. At the heart of the project is a portrayal of the sociological, economic, and environmental changes that swept the country during this time of historic change. It provides snapshots of the past, present, and future of Mongolia. A photo journal of a voyage across the steppes of Mongolia, Portraits of Change documents ten cases of entrepreneurial success. Filled with photographs that detail Mongolia's breathtaking landscape, the book systematically details the journey ten families have made, from birth to occupational success during socialism, to emptiness and despair during the transition to the market, and to the victory that eventually grew from hardship.
