A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF STATE-CENTRED HISTORY WRITING PROCESSES IN POST-SOVIET ESTONIA AND KAZAKHSTAN IN THE CONTEXT OF NATIONALISM

Summary/Abstract: Although non-governmental actors have increasingly become effective in history-writing practices during the globalization process, the state has not completely lost its significance. Thanks to this, state is still able to determine the identity construction processes in many cases. Furthermore, state-centred historywriting processes are among the basic indicators of state’s stance on the scale of civic-ethnic nationalism. In this study, state-centred history-writing processes in Estonia and Kazakhstan – two states that shared Soviet experience and gained independence in a similar way – are comparatively analyzed in the context of nationalism.
