In the years between the two World Wars the concept became more political in nature: after Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania obtained their independence in 1918 the region gradually became understood as the geographical entity made up of these three republics. Although the Baltic region is geographically fairly homogeneous, each of the newly restored republics possesses unique geographical and strategic features.

  • Citizenship, Official Language, Bilingual Education in Latvia: Public Policy in the Last 10 Years
    Citizenship, Official Language, Bilingual Education in Latvia: Public Policy in the Last 10 Years Brigita Zepa This article aims to show the implementation of policies related to ethnic minorities' integration in Latvian society during the first 10 years of Latvia's independence. This aim was postulated because, on the one hand, Latvia is often being criticized for its ethnopolitics both by the EU and by leaders of local minorities. On the other hand, a successful resolution of issues related to ethnopolitics will strengthen Latvian internal stability, ethnic harmony, and open the door to the European Union. The aim of this article is based on the conviction that the analysis and evaluation of ethnopolitics is an important precondition for these policies' improvement, besides acquainting the public with these issues. Although Latvia has been an independent state for already 10 years, many problems, which are still difficult to be solved today, are rooted in conditions that emerged during the Soviet years, when Latvia was a USSR republic. In the first place, migration substantially changed the ethnic composition of Latvia's inhabitants since many migrants moved to Latvia from other republics. Secondly, during the Soviet period the Russian language dominated over Latvian, which led to a restrictive use of Latvian, as the number of people not knowing Latvian grew. When Latvia became an independent state, the said two problems led to the following series of questions that the new legislation had to deal with. These are the laws on citizenship, state language, and education, social integration policies, development of the ethnic relations' model in society.
