Summary/Abstract |
Archana Upadhyay shows that identitarian policies in Estonia have sharpened linguistic and political differences as well as age-old resentments kept dormant under Soviet rule. The country’s vast Russian community feels neglected and discriminated against as it is largely excluded from the political process, while the majority population fears that at Moscow’s prompting, Narva and other mostly russophone enclaves might break away to join the Russian Federation.

Summary/Abstract |
I HAVE long wanted to write a short essay on the activity of our compatriot associations in the Czech Republic to show the special features and traits of the local Russian community and the history of its development. This desire is mainly prompted by the fact that I have had occasion to work for a total of 15 years, first in Czechoslovakia and then in the Czech Republic, witness the changing times, and am personally acquainted with many of the "characters and actors," including among the "Russian Czechs."
