Summary "This book traces the history and legacy of flow as a crucial figure within Russian labor discourse since 1870. The book frames concern with fluid channeling as immanent to labor culture in vertical power structures-whether that verticality derives from the state, as in Stalin's Soviet Union and present-day Russia, or from the proliferation of corporate monopolies, as in the contemporary Anglo- American West."-- Provided by publisher
