Everyday Belonging in the Post-Soviet Borderlands : Russian Speakers in Estonia and Kazakhstan, Paperback / softback Book

Everyday Belonging in the Post-Soviet Borderlands : Russian Speakers in Estonia and Kazakhstan Paperback / softback

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.
