Abstract
Ethnolinguistic complexity may manifest itself in the presence of groups of significantly different sizes or in the presence of two or more roughly similar groups in terms of size. Coupled with their uneven spatial distribution within the boundaries of the region, it is a potential factor influencing not only the practices and structure of inter-elite relations but also the politicization of ethnicity. The presented research is based on R. Brubaker's approach to understanding ethnicity as a discursive result of situational actions, design and implementation of various political projects, not necessarily related to the sphere of ethnolinguistic regulation, and even random events. The author, also, uses N. Mukharyamov's idea of the interconnectedness of "language politics" and "language policy". The article presents you with an explanation of the connection between the structural factors of the scale of recognition of the minority language and the subject composition of the language policy, as well as the strategies of language conflicts at the regional level in Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, Udmurtia and the Perm region.
