Research projects

* National Self-Identification of Diaspora Ethnoses

Head: Shapiro, Vladimir

Duration: 1997-2001

Institution: Institute of Sociology, Russian Academy of Sciences, e-mail: sekretar@isras.ru

Abstract: Project objectives: analysis of national identification and self-identification processes of ethnic diasporas (ED) in Russia and Ukraine: the construction of typologies of national identities of various ethnic diasporas, finding common and specific traits in their identity, history, and contemporary agenda.

The project sets out to bring out the type of interrelations and mutual influence of personal group ("solidarity") and institutional aspects of ED national identification. In particular, the project focuses on a comparison of instrumental effectiveness of spontaneous, independent, "activist" national movements and solidarities (voluntary self-organisation, activism, self-determination), on the one hand, and bureaucratic, legal, management and financial impact, on the other. Other objectives: the definition of the role of ED national self-determination in the general social and cultural change ongoing in Russian and Ukrainian societies; social and historical analysis of the "lifecycle" (ethno-genesis) of individual typical ethnic diasporas; the study of the "historic memory" concept regarded as the basic structural component of national self-determination; attempts at an understanding of the ED "ethnic solidarity" phenomenon in the context of global and civilisational change.

Head: Nikifirova, Elena

Duration: 1997-2000
