The Russian Empire: A Multi-ethnic History


The Russian Empire: A Multi-ethnic History
The Russian Empire: A Multi-ethnic History by Andreas Kappeler

The "national question" and how to impose control over its diverse ethnic identities has long posed a problem for the Russian state. This major survey of Russia as a multi-ethnic empire spans the imperial years from the sixteenth century to 1917, with major consideration of the Soviet phase. It asks how Russians incorporated new territories, how they were resisted, what the character of a multi-ethnic empire was and how, finally, these issues related to nationalism.
