Abstract

The article examines the impact of perestroika on ethnopolitics under the administration of Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. It describes the distinct effects of perestroika on non-Russian regions, such as Kazakhstan and Ukraine which suffered terror and famine brought about by collectivization. It discusses the contradictions of perestroika in which Gorbachev will have to choose between democratization and reliance on centralization. The article also explores several nationality issues which are of special concern to the minority peoples.
