Biography
Inna Kochetkova is Lecturer in Qualitative Research Methods at the University of Bradford, UK.
'Kochetnikova’s emphasis on the intelligentsia as a social and discursive construct, and her anthropologically-framed examination of how this construction is enacted through very concrete, complex and ambiguous practices of group or personal self-presentation must be taken seriously and properly integrated into our understanding of the history of Russia’s field of intellectual production.' – Andy Byford, University of Durham, published in Slavonica Vol. 17 No. 1, April, 2011, pp. 46-50
