Nation-Building in the Context of Post-Communist Transformation and Globalization : The Case of Estonia Hardback
Edited by Raivo Vetik
Part of the New Approaches in Educational and Social Sciences / Neue Denkansaetze in den Bildungs- und Sozialwis series
Hardback
Description
This volume is devoted to the relationship between political and social dimensions of nation-building in Estonia.
The authors of the volume analyse the Estonian nation-building since 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed and Estonia regained independence, in the context of post-communist transformation and globalization.
Such a double macro-historical change has brought about highly polarized views in society between the ethnic Estonian and Russian-speaking communities on a number of key aspects of nationbuilding, like ethnic policy, meaning of national integration etc.
The volume argues that national integration can progress only via formation of a unifying citizen identity in Estonia, embedded within democratic political processes.
