Abstract

"Displaced Comrades: Politics and Surveillance in the Lives of Soviet Refugees in the West" is a book that explores the experiences of left-aligned Soviet refugees in exile. The author argues that these refugees have been largely overlooked by scholars and society, despite their significant presence. The book focuses on the stories of seven exiles and their involvement in the Russian Social Club, highlighting the challenges they faced and the complex dynamics of their lives. While the book relies on limited and contradictory sources, it provides a captivating read and sheds light on the identities and experiences of these left-wing migrants. [Extracted from the article]
