Kaksikielinen kokoomateos (eng-ve) on suomalais-venäläisen tutkijaryhmän yhteisprojektin tulos.
Representations of Locality in Soviet and Russian Contexts Edited by Pekka Suutari and Yury Shikalov
The articles of this present volume /Karelia Written and Sung/ open up various complementary perspectives on the construction of a Karelian identity during and after the Soviet era. The general picture is one of a progression towards reliance on publically produced modes of culture for the maintenance of a national Karelian identity, with literature, music and linguistic activities at the forefront. Although these activities were organised within state-imposed schemes, the local Karelians were still able to influence some of them.
The papers of the Finno-Russian joint research project provide a vivid description of the work and experiences of activists who succeeded within a Soviet and Russian context in producing national representations of Karelian identity.
