  By Howard Davis, Philip Hammond and Lilia Nizamova. The politics of national identity in the Republic of Tatarstan are complex and often contradictory. Although sometimes posed in terms of an historical legacy, claims to nationhood are also strongly shaped by more pragmatic contemporary concerns. In addition to more conventional forms of political mobilisation, national identity is also contested in cultural arenas.

  By Elizabeth Frombgen. The research represents a comparative analysis of the two cases of autonomies in Russia, - Chechnya and Tarastan and attempts to understand why the Russian state invaded the Republic of Chechnya in 1994, but signed a bilateral treaty with the Republic of Tatarstan in 1994, despite significant similarities between the cases.
