Constructing ethnopolitics in the Soviet Union

"In this book, Zisserman-Brodsky presents the first systematic and comparative study of the development of ethnonationalist ideologies in the Soviet Union in the period from the late 1960s to the second half of 1980s." "Zisserman-Brodsky explores various explanations of nationalism and its resurgence through a close and unprecendented examination of dissident writings of diverse ethnic groups in the former Soviet Union, thereby bridging macro-theory with micro-politics."--BOOK JACKET.
