Abstract
This is a study of ethnic politics in the USSR as formulated within dissident ethnonationalist movements between 1964 and 1986. The juxtaposition of ethnic politics with nationalism (even if ethno-nationalism) intrinsically demands terminological clarification. Ethnic politics is often perceived as a nascent—pre-nationalist—stage of ethnic assertiveness, which may be progressively evolved into its higher phase—nationalism. It seems that such an approach narrows considerably the realm of both concepts—nationalism and ethnic politics. Therefore, a word must be said here about the meanings and theoretical interpretations of basic terms and concepts used in the book, namely, ethnic politics, ethnic groups, nationalism, modernization, nationalist movements and their demands.
