After almost four centuries of expansion the Russian Empire at the
beginning of the 20th century covered vast territories on the
Eurasian continent and included an immensely diverse population.
How was the new Russian regime to deal with the complexity of its
population? This book examines the role of nation and nationality
in the Soviet Union and analyzes the establishment of national
republics in Soviet Central Asia. It argues that the originally
nationally minded Soviet communists with their anti-nationalist
attitudes came to view nation and national identity as valuable
tools in state building.
