Editorial Reviews:
|
The book traces the nation-building processes that are unfolding in the post-Soviet states after the fall of Communism. It notes that state leaders in all of these states are making strenuous efforts to imbue their population with a sense of common nationhood. In the post-Soviet world, however, the concept of 'nation' is for all practical purposes synonymous with 'ethnic group', and nation-building strategies tend to be based on the culture and language of the dominant group, the so-called 'titular nationality'. Members of minority groups often see themselves as culturally and politically marginalized.
