From 1993 to 1994, Sigrid Rausing completed her anthropological
fieldwork on the penninsula of Noarootsi, a former Soviet border
protection zone in Estonia. Abandoned watchtowers dotted the
coastline, and the huge fields of the Lenin collective farm were
laying fallow, waiting for claims from former owners who had fled
war and Soviet and Nazi occupation. Rausing's research focused on
the loss of historical memory during the Soviet occupation, and the
slow revival of an independent Estonian culture, including the
recognition of the minority Swedes in Estonia. She lived and worked
amongst the villagers, witnessing their transition from repression
to independence, and from Soviet neglect to post-Soviet austerity.
