Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: State repressions of minority groups threaten human rights, undermining their development and survival. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, countless minority groups found themselves living in a new country as a result of annexation, redefined territorial boundaries and migration, with some suffering repression from the states in which they now resided. This thesis examines the interactions and conditions necessary for such repressions from the state to take place with the central research question: why and how might a state, having just acquired an ethnic or minority group, repress the said group following its acquisition. Through the combination of Benedict Anderson's conceptualizations of a nation as an "imagined community," and Rogers Brubaker's triadic nexus as a mold for the roles of a state and a minority group in conflict, I hypothesize that a state will repress an ethnic minority if the state's goals and ambitions are in conflict with the minority groups goals and ambitions deriving from the strength of their national identity. This results in the State, with its greater mobilization capabilities and political prowess, repressing the minority group, in order to counter the perceived threat to the sovereignty and integrity of the state. The hypothesis is tested through the evaluation of levels of repression using eight indicators of state repression, focusing on a qualitative case study of the Crimean Tatars and their experiences with repression under three states: The Soviet Union, Ukraine, and the Russian Federation. Through the history of the Crimean Tatars, the formation of their national identity through collective memory and sufferings in exile provides unity and coherence to the needs of the group along with concerns that seemingly threaten the state's own status quo, leading to repressions by that state. Such repressions will support the hypothesis, demonstrating that under Soviet rule post-exile, repressions came as a reaction to the Crimean Tatars national movement and their desire to return to the Crimean Peninsula, and under Russian rule, repressions resulted from their protests over the Russian annexation and its legitimacy in Crimea, whereas repressions were not a major policy from the state under Ukraine.

This book was released on with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Crimean Tatars have often been ignored in the Crimean studies. Whereas the Crimean Tatars are the indigenous people, the owners of the land, faced deportations multiple times and managed to arise each time. They have returned to homeland after 50 years of struggle to build their own civilisation once they had it before the horrific deportation of 1944 ‘Every Crimean Tatar, elderly, men, women, children; they all had bright lights in their eyes. The light of hope! The hope to build their home in the land of their ancestors. They had nothing in their possessions to start with. They did not have a roof over their heads, living in tents. But they had the light of hope. Soon, it will be ten years of living under the Russian control and the light in the people’s eyes are disappearing. Once Crimea becomes free, we have a lot to do!’ Quote from Safinar Djemileva, wife of the Crimean Tatar leader Mustafa Djemilev, during a visit to her in exile in Istanbul 1 July 2023 This book is a short history of the Crimean Tatars based on the Crimean Tatars perspective.

Download or read book The Crimea Question written by Gwendolyn Sasse and published by Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute. This book was released on 2007 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Crimea's multiethnicity is the most colorful and politically relevant expression of Ukraine's regional diversity. History, memory, and myth are deeply inscribed in Crimea's landscape. These cultural and institutional echoes from different historical periods have played a crucial role in post-Soviet Ukraine. In the early to mid-1990s, the Western media, policymakers, and academics alike warned that Crimea was a potential center of unrest and instability in the aftermath of the Soviet Union's dissolution. However, large-scale conflict in Crimea did not materialize, and Kyiv has managed to integrate the peninsula into the new Ukrainian polity. This book traces the imperial legacies, in particular identities and institutions of the Russian and Soviet period, and post-Soviet transition politics. Both frame Crimea's potential for conflict and the dynamics of conflict prevention. As a critical case in which conflict did not erupt despite a structural predisposition to ethnic, regional, and even international enmity, the Crimea question is located in the larger context of conflict and conflict prevention studies."--Jacket.

Download or read book The Crimean Tatars written by Brian Williams and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking as its starting point the ethnogenesis of this ethnic group during the Mongol period (13th century), this volume traces their history through Islam, the Ottoman and the Russian Empires (15th and 17th century). The author discusses how Islam, Russian colonial policies and indigenous national movements shaped the collective identity of this victimized ethnic group. Part two deals with the role of forced migration during the Russian colonial period, Soviet nation-building policies and ethnic cleansing in shaping this people's modern national identity. This work therefore also has wider applications for those dealing with the construction of diasporic identities. Taking a comparative approach, it traces the formation of Crimean Tatar diasporas in the Ottoman Balkans, Republican Turkey, and Soviet Central Asia (from 1944). A theme which emerges through the work is the gradual construction of the Crimea as a national homeland by its indigenous Tatar population. It ends with a discussion of the post-Soviet repatriation of the Crimean Tatars to their Russified homeland and the social and identity problems involved.

Download or read book Islam in Russia written by Diana Galeeva and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-09 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Islam in Russia is a rare scholarly attempt to understand the tolerant nature of Islam in the modern Russian Federation since the state’s official acceptance of Islam. The book explores the key factors that have contributed, over time, to the establishment of a co-existent form of Islam in modern multi-ethnic and multinational Russia. It also probes discussion of the role that Russian Muslim intellectuals have played in forming contemporary Russian Islam. It concludes that the co-existent form of Islam in Russia can be linked to three key factors: its historical emergence, the intellectual culture, and strong regional identities. This original and engaging examination of the development and identity of Islam in Russia is a useful resource for students and scholars of Global Islam, Islam in Europe, History of Russia, Islamic History, Islamic Thought and Modern Religious History.
Download or read book Asiatic Russia written by Tomohiko Uyama and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the Russian Empire has traditionally been viewed as a European borderland, most of its territory was actually situated in Asia. Imperial power was huge but often suffered from a lack of enough information and resources to rule its culturally diverse subjects, and asymmetric relations between state and society combined with flexible strategies of local actors sometimes produced unexpected results. In Asiatic Russia, an international team of scholars explores the interactions between power and people in Central Asia, Siberia, the Volga-Urals, and the Caucasus from the 18th to the early 20th centuries, drawing on a wealth of Russian archival materials and Turkic, Persian, and Tibetan sources. The variety of topics discussed in the book includes the Russian idea of a "civilizing mission," the system of governor-generalships, imperial geography and demography, roles of Muslim and Buddhist networks in imperial rule and foreign policy, social change in the Russian Protectorate of Bukhara, Muslim reformist and national movements. The book is essential reading for students and scholars of Russian, Central Eurasian, and comparative imperial history, as well as imperial and colonial studies and nationalism studies. It may also provide some hints for understanding today’s world, where "empire" has again become a key word in international and domestic power relations.
