The need points fundamental tensions within society about belonging, arising a particular configuration race, ethnicity, and language emerged during Soviet era.

Этнографическое исследование показывает, что скрывают маркеры нелегальности, чтобы выдать себя не обязательно за белых этнических русских, а вместо этого этнически неоднородных российских граждан (россияне). Необходимость такого пассинга указывает на фундаментальную напряженность российском обществе относительно самоидентификации, которая возникает из-за особой конфигурации расы, этничности и языка, возникшей советское время. Я показываю, этническая ‘русскость’ действует подобно белизне, невидимому идеалу, рядом с которым существуют расиализированные тела, фоне антирасистских кампаний советской эпохи современных заявлений о многонациональности России. Эта статья вносит вклад исследования, которые анализируют миграцию гражданство расовые проекты, демонстрируя, локальные нюансы белизны взаимодействуют глобальными транснациональными движениями превосходство белых.
