Harnessing Fortune: Personhood, Memory and Place in Mongolia - British Academy Monographs
Empson, Rebecca M. (Lecturer in Social Anthropology, University College, London)

Based on fieldwork with migrant herding families who traverse the Northern Mongolian-Russian border, the volume explores how intimate social relationships and identities are drawn upon to engage with new political and economic uncertainties.
