뜻
To abandon someone without help.
문화적 배경
The phrase reflects a historical reality where the 'mir' (village community) was the only safety net. Being cast out was a death sentence. During the collapse of the USSR, many people felt 'брошенными на произвол судьбы' as the state social safety net vanished overnight. Dostoevsky and Tolstoy often used themes of abandonment to fate to test their characters' morality and faith. Today, it's frequently used in animal rights activism to describe the problem of stray pets in big cities.
