The aim of this module is to explore the idea of Russia and Russian identity during the period of the Soviet Union. The course examines the construction of Russian `identity` at different spatial levels: local, national and global, through the exploration of a range of issues, including Soviet/Russian relations and interactions with the West, relations between the Russian Soviet republic and other republics of the Soviet Union; the role of migration in the Soviet Union and the identity and experience of Russian `diaspora` communities; the nature and existence of religion under Soviet rule; attitudes towards and experiences of non-Russian ethnic communities in the Russian Soviet Republic and wider Soviet Union. The module includes analysis of Russian identity construction during the period of the Tsarist `empire`, which provides an essential historical context. The module adopts an approach that combines utilization of key theoretical and conceptual frameworks (nationalism, ethnicity, post-colonialism) whilst paying attention to their applicability to the very specific context of the Soviet space. The module aims to include insights from the bottom up, i.e. more grounded empirical perspectives of identity construction at the level of the Soviet Russian population.
