The Committee for the Future has published a study dealing with Russia from year 2007 every four-year term. The first looked at Russia’s political development, the second focused on modernisation of the Russian economy and now the theme of the third is Russian foreign policy. The theme is approached from the perspective of a great power’s neighbours. When we were launching our latest research, we had no way of knowing how topical it would turn out to be. Political power has begun to be concentrated in Russia, patriotic sentiment is strengthening and there is a desire to shield domestic production from international competition. Russia’s involvement in events in Ukraine has brought tension to foreign relations. The EU has imposed sanctions on Russia, to which Russia has responded with counter-sanctions. As a result of the general recession and sanctions, the Russian economy is plunging through recession into a depression. Also the Finnish economy is suffering from this situation. There is a Russian proverb: “If you fear the wolf, don’t go into the forest”. Do the great power’s neighbours trust Russia? Why has trust in Russia weakened? Russia emphasises that it

The approach highlights especially the meaning of socio•historical and religious factors in the emergence of the Mission view of Messianic Jewish women. Ukraine, the location of this study case, is an ex•Soviet country of about 48 million citizens with 100 ethnic nationalities. Members of the Jewish Faith form one of those ethnic groups. Following the Russian revolution in 1989 and then the establishing of an independent Ukraine in 1991, the country descended into economic disaster with many consequent social problems.

  • Nationalism Manuscript NN1549
    Lauenstein, Murer, Boos & Reicher Nationalism, Gender and the Representation ‘Oh motherland I pledge to thee…’: A Study into Nationalism, Gender and the Representation of an Imagined Family Within National Anthems. Nations, Walzer (1967, quoted after Cerulo 1995: 3) notes, have to be ‘imagined before they can be conceived and symbolised before they can be loved’. Even within academic debates, symbolic representations are sometimes at the core of understandings of nationhood: Anderson’s (1983) use of the emblematic Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to illustrate the ‘imagined community’ is a prominent example. Arguably, representations like this are part and parcel of engaging with nations both theoretically as well as empirically. Most theories within nationalism studies employ some kind of metaphor, analogy or other symbolic representation to buttress their claims or make them more easily comprehensible. To provide some examples, Smith's (1991) notion of belonging is strongly linked to understanding nationhood as akin to clans or tribes; Breuilly’s (1993) emphasis on statehood and sovereignty is reminiscent of bureaucratic imagery; and when Gellner (2006) stresses the importance of a common culture, a state-sponsored educational programme comes to mind. Given that inventing national symbols and traditions is an inherent part of nation-building (Hobsbawn 1990), finding them mirrored in academic debates is hardly surprising. While analysing the analogies drawn on by scholars in the field of nationalism studies would be a fascinating project in its own right, the aim of this paper is somewhat different. Firstly, in revisiting some of the major feminist critiques levelled against prominent theories on nationhood, we aim to illustrate how some imaginations of nationhood will lead us to – deliberately or not – omit crucial differences and inequalities within the nation.
