Focusing on the economic practices of traders from the Caucasus and China, the book delves into their lives in the bazaars of Tbilisi and Beijing. It explores their motivations, socio-cultural backgrounds, and interactions, while contributing to discussions on informal economies in the post-Soviet context and "globalization from below." By providing a detailed account of bazaar traders' behaviors and strategies, it highlights their embeddedness in local and global political, economic, and cultural frameworks, as well as market dynamics.
