Building of the Soviet Titular Nations (1918-1938)

Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2014, Vol 20, Issue 1

Abstract

The article examines the status of titular nations “built” in the national administrative-territorial regions and republics of the Soviet Union. Korenization (meaning "indigenization") campaign along with the official fixation of every citizen’s ethnic origin and his relationship to the titular nation overall determined the course on the politicization of ethnicity. This course formed the essence of the national policy of the Kremlin aimed at the establishment of complete dependence of the multinational population from the state.
