BARAN, E. B., Dissent on the Margins. How Soviet Jehovah's Witnesses Defied Communism and Lived to Preach About It. Oxford University Press, 2016. 402p. Paperback. Dissent on the Margins is an amazing piece of research and analysis: sophisticated in its conceptualization, exhaustive in its research (in hitherto-secret state, party, and even police archives), this study shows how a small religious group survived decades of Soviet repression, won legalization in 1991, and has since expanded its flock to several hundred thousand adherents. A must-read for historians, political scientists, and sociologists of religion. Gregory L. Freeze, Victor and Gwendolyn Beinfield Professor of History, Brandeis University (Publisher's information). € 59.09 (New) (Printed on Demand) (approx. delivery time: 4 weeks) ISBN: 9780190495497
