Summary In the midst of societal optimism, how do young men cope with the loss of a vibrant future? This book provides a vivid exploration of the tension between subjective and societal time and the ways these tensions create experiences of marginality among under- or unemployed young men in the Republic of Georgia. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork, the author shows how the Georgian state has attempted to make the so-called post-Soviet transition a thing of the past as it creates new ideas about the future.
