Everyday Belonging in the Post-Soviet Borderlands : Russian Speakers in Estonia and Kazakhstan Paperback / softback
by Alina Jasina-Schafer
Paperback / softback
Description
Everyday Belonging in the Post-Soviet Borderlands examines the Russophone communities in peripheral cities adjacent to the Russian borders in Estonia and Kazakhstan.
The research adopts a cross-disciplinary, space-sensitive approach that focuses comparatively on individual memories, narratives, and performances.
Based on ethnographic examples, this book reconstructs belonging as a complex dialectical relationship between "inclusion" and "exclusion." This relationship, it is argued, manifests itself through a continuous spiral of boundary construction, appropriation, and transgression among different versions of Estonianness and Kazakhness, Europeanness and Cosmopolitanness, as well as Russianness.
