Avastamise võlu ajendab inimesi liikuma, et luua terviklikumat maailmapilti, selle osana ka minapilti. Selleks et minna, peab olema koht, kuhu tagasi tulla. Kaugemalt vaadates näivad asjad selgemad, fookus teravneb või koguni nihkub. Püsimatus on tänapäeva maailmas normiks muutumas. Liikumine ja Juhtkiri peatumine on ühtlasi piiride ületamine ja seadmine. Missugust ruumi vajab kaasaegne nomaad, missugused on tema eluolu ootused ja vajadused? Eesti on olukorras, kus juba pikka aega maad võtnud väljaränne on muutumas igapäevaseks normaalsuseks. SISU III sümpoosion “Welcome Stranger!” oli provokatiivne üleskutse astuda Euroopa rändekriisi taustal oma mugavustsoonist välja, et arutleda ruumilise keskkon- na vaatepunktist selle üle, kes on võõras ja millal saab võõrast oma. Ränne on tänases maailmas põletav teema – liikumine võib olla nii sund kui ka vaba voli. Siin peegelduvad inimeste kodunemise ja kohanemise teisenenud käitumismustrid tänapäeva reaalses ruumis. Räägime ruumilisest intelligentsusest ehk koha, arhitektuurse ruumi ja inimeste omavahelisest suhestumisest, milles avaldub võime luua teistsuguses kultuuriruumis ja maastikus, poliitilises ja klimaatilises keskkonnas uusi inspireerivaid lahendusi – kasu- tada ruumi teistmoodi. 3 Tüüne-Kristin Vaikla The Potential of Alienating and Hosting The bar where I landed on the first night that I arrived at RMIT University in Melbourne was called Welcome Stranger! The allure of discovery motivates people to move, to create a more complete picture of the world, and a picture of oneself as a part thereof. In order to go, there must be a place to come back to. Viewed from afar, things seem clearer; one’s focus is sharpened or may even shift. Mobility is becoming the norm in today’s world. Moving and stopping also means the crossing and establishing of bound- Editorial aries. What kind of space do modern nomads need? What are their expectations and needs? Estonia is in a situation where emigration, which has been gathering steam for a long time, is becoming the everyday normality. The third SISU Symposium called Welcome Stranger! was a provocative call, against the background of Europe’s migration crisis, to step out of one’s comfort zone and dis- cuss, from the viewpoint of the spatial environment, who is a stranger and when does a stranger become one of us. Migration is a hot topic in today’s world – movement can be forced or voluntary. The altered behavioural patterns of people’s acclimatisation and adaptation are reflected in real space. We are speaking about spatial intelligence, or the interaction of place, architectural space and people, which is expressed in the ability to create new inspiring solutions in different kinds of cultural spaces and landscapes, politi- cal and climatic environments – to use space in a different way. SISU moderaatorid mõtestasid sümpoosioni teemat nii: Aet Ader: “Viimase paarikümne aasta jooksul on meie elu põhjalikult muutunud. Eelkõige pean siin silmas uusi sotsiaalseid suhteid, perekonnastruktuure ja soorollide muutumist, samuti elatustaseme erinevust, massimigratsiooni ja elanikkonna vanane- mist. Veneetsia arhitektuuribiennaali kuraator Alejandro Aravena tegeles niisuguste teemadega Saksamaa paviljonis, mis kandis pealkirja “Making Heimat: Germany, Arrival Country”. Väljapanekus arutleti, kuidas luua kodutunne (sks Heimat) moel, et inimesed selle omaks võtaksid. Sakslased jõudsid järeldusele, et see on eelkõige kahepool- ne protsess, millesse tuleb kaasata nii vastuvõtjad kui ka saabujad ehk immigrandid, kes seisavad silmitsi oma uue kodu tingimustega. Saksamaa on praeguses keerukas olukorras silmitsi suurima väljakutsega pärast Ida- ja Lääne-Saksamaa taasühinemist. Briti paviljon deklareeris, et elu muutusi tuleb disainida ise. Nende ekspositsioon “Home Economics” näitlikustas, kuidas korraldada kodust elu sõltuvalt viiest ajaskaalast: tunnid, päevad, kuud, aastad ja dekaadid – olenevalt sellest, kui pikaajaliselt “kodu” kasutatakse. Kas saame kujundada elamist, lähtudes ajalisest vaatepunktist?” Martin Melioranski: “Esimene raamat, mida pidin aastal 2000 New Yorki elama koli- des ja kolmandat korda arhitektuuriõpinguid alustades (loe: aspirantuuris) lugema, oli Tüüne-Kristin Vaikla Tüüne-Kristin prantsuse mõtleja Michel de Certeau teose “L’invention du quotidien” (1980) inglis- keelne tõlge. Nüüdseks ka eesti keeles pealkirja all “Igapäevased praktikad” (2005) ilmunud ning arvatavasti paljudele tuttava raamatu saab võtta kokku autori enda sõna- dega, mis suunavad kaasaegses maailmas, kesk linlikke ja küberneetilisi muutusi, täht- sustama ja tähistama seda, mis on tihti märkamatu ja tavaline, kuid tundub erilisena, eriti inimeses. Need argised pisiasjad New Yorgis, mida raamatus esile tõstetakse, aitasid mul selles suurlinnas õppida tundma mitte ainult minust endast väljaspool olevat, vaid ka omaenda sisemaailma. Sisimas oleksin oma isikliku Manhattani piirkonna tundma- õppimisel eelistanud teiste prantslaste, Gilles Deleuze’i ja Félix Guattari vaatenurki ja loomingut, millest olin juba mitu aastat vaimustunud. Eelkõige köitis mind nende 4 The SISU moderators interpreted the theme of the symposium as follows: Aet Ader: ‘During the last few decades, our life has thoroughly changed. What I mean are the new social relations, changes in family structure and gender roles, as well as differences in living standards, mass migration and the aging of the popula- tion. Alejandro Aravena, the curator of the Venice Biennale of Architecture dealt with these topics in the German pavilion, with an exhibition entitled Making Heimat: Germany, Arrival Country. The exhibition discussed how to create a Heimat or home- land, in such way that people will accept it. The Germans arrived at the conclusion that this is essentially a two-sided process, which must involve the hosts and the arrivals, i.e. the immigrants, who are facing the conditions of a new home. In the current complicated situation, Germany is facing its greatest challenge since the reunification of East and West Germany. The British pavilion declared that people must design their own life changes. The exposition called Home Economics illustrated how to organise one’s home life based on five temporal scales: hours, days, months, years, and decades – depend- ing on how long the “home” is in use. Can we really design our living based on a SISU—LINE #3 SISU—LINE temporal viewpoint?’ Martin Melioranski: ‘The first book I had to read when I moved to New York in 2000 and started my architectural studies for the third time (i.e. my post-graduate studies) was the English translation of L’invention du quotidien (1980) by the French scholar Michel de Certeau. The book, which is probably familiar to many people, can be summarised in the author’s own words, which, amidst the urban and cyber- netic changes in the contemporary world, encourage us to value and celebrate that which is ordinary and often unnoticed,

  • The Emergence of Estonian Hip-Hop in the 1990S Underlies Much Hip-Hop Sentiment” (2004: 152)
    Th e Emergence of Estonian Hip-Hop in the 1990s Triin Vallaste Abstract In this article I trace the ways in which hip-hop as a global form of expression has become indigenized in post-Soviet Estonia. Hip-hop’s indigenization coincides with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. After the dissolution of the USSR, dominant Estonian social discourses eagerly celebrated re-entering the European-American world and embracing its values. The uncensored global media outlets acces- sible after 1991 and rapid developments in information technology shortly thereafter were crucial to the history of Estonian-language rap. Hip-hop artists’ extensive involvement with new media and technolo- gies refl ects an extremely swift transition from ill-equipped to fl uent manipulation of technology, which aff ected cultural production and structures of participation in various sociocultural spheres. While hip- hop culture emerged in the South Bronx during the early 1970s as a radical voice against increasing economic hardship and social marginalization, Estonian hip-hop was established in the early 1990s and developed in the context of a rapidly growing economy, rising living standards, and strong national feel- ing within a re-independent Estonian state. Hip-hop artists’ production vividly reveals both the legacies of Soviet rule and the particular political economy of post-Soviet Estonia. Hip-hop, with its roots in expressive Caribbean, (2003: 468). To invoke Tom Boellstorff ’s notion of African-American, and Latino cultures, has be- “dubbing culture” (Boellstorff 2003), indigenized come fundamental to millions of peoples’ iden- rap “is more than just a quotation: it adds a step, tities worldwide, a fact which necessitates mak- fi rst alienating something but then reworking it ing sense of the specifi c ways hip-hop functions in a new context” (2003: 237, cited in Keeler 2009: in diverse communities and cultures.

  • Hopeless Youth!
    HOPELESS YOUTH! Editors Francisco Martínez and Pille Runnel Hopeless Youth! is a collection of studies exploring what it means to be young today. Young people increasingly create their own identities and solidarities through experiences rather than through political or kin affiliations. It is the youth with the greatest hunger of experiences and cosmopolitan referents. Youngsters are hopeless because do not expect help from anybody and demonstrate scepticism about the future. As shown, contemporary youth is characterised by interim responses and situational thinking, developing particular skills that do not exist in previous generations. Beware that these essays will certainly resonate in your morning, afternoon and late night. Estonian National Museum Veski 32 51014 Tartu Estonia HOPELESS YOUTH!

  • Remains of the Soviet Past in Estonia Ii
    Remains of the Soviet Past in Estonia ii FRINGE Series Editors Alena Ledeneva and Peter Zusi, School of Slavonic and East European Studies, UCL The FRINGE series explores the roles that complexity, ambivalence and immeas- urability play in social and cultural phenomena. A cross-disciplinary initiative bringing together researchers from the humanities, social sciences and area stud- ies, the series examines how seemingly opposed notions such as centrality and marginality, clarity and ambiguity, can shift and converge when embedded in everyday practices. Alena Ledeneva is Professor of Politics and Society at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies of UCL. Peter Zusi is Lecturer at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies of UCL. By adopting the tropes of ‘repair’ and ‘waste’, this book innovatively manages to link various material registers from architecture, intergen- erational relations, affect and museums with ways of making the past pres- ent. Through a rigorous yet transdisciplinary method, Martínez brings together different scales and contexts that would often be segregated out. In this respect, the ethnography unfolds a deep and nuanced analysis, providing a useful comparative and insightful account of the processes of repair and waste making in all their material, social and ontological dimensions. Victor Buchli, Professor of Material Culture at UCL This book comprises an endearingly transdisciplinary ethnography of postsocialist material culture and social change in Estonia. Martínez creatively draws on a number of critical and cultural theorists, together with additional research on memory and political studies scholarship and the classics of anthropology. Grappling concurrently with time and space, the book offers a delightfully thick description of the material effects generated by the accelerated post-Soviet transformation in Estonia, inquiring into the generational specificities in experiencing and relating to the postsocialist condition through the conceptual anchors of wasted legacies and repair.

    INTRODUCTION ሖሗመ Me: What is so punk about you? Berndt: I say what I think! he concert was in one of the three main punk clubs in Halle; it was a TDIY (Do-It-Yourself; see below) event organized by people living in the same building in which the club is located. During the evening, two skin- head bands performed, drawing a big audience of punks and skins. Th e con- cert itself was a celebration of masculinity, typical of the tough street punk music style. Th e mosh pit mostly consisted of men, heavily tattooed and half-naked. Th e wild pogo also included hugging each other, a loud singa- long chorus and, at some point, even a fi ght. Th e musicians of the main band were older than the fi rst band and were in their forties. Th ey were dressed in typical skinhead style, with facial tattoos and heavy piercings. Most of their songs were narratives about their tough street life, being independent or ‘staying skinhead forever’. When the concert ended, the promoter of the club moved to the DJ booth and started to play ‘punk rock disco’. Most of the songs he played were of the Neue Deutsche Welle, German new wave music from the 1980s. Th e DJ chose mainly dark and existential tunes, experimen- tal electronic songs about alienation and unhappiness. Th e people danced with passion and I took my time to observe the crowd. Most of the people were in their twenties or thirties, representing the low-paid or unemployed ‘lower class’.

  • A Home for 121 Nationalities Or Less
    A Home for 121 Nationalities or Less: Nationalism, Ethnicity, and Integration in Post-Soviet Estonia DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Elo-Hanna Seljamaa Graduate Program in Comparative Studies The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dorothy P. Noyes, Advisor Nicholas Breyfogle Ray Cashman Richard Herrmann Margaret Mills Copyright by Elo-Hanna Seljamaa 2012 Abstract When Estonia declared itself independent from the USSR in August 1991, it did so as the legal successor of the Republic of Estonia established in 1918, claiming to be returning to the Western world after a nearly five-decade rupture caused by illegal Soviet rule. Together with international recognition, this principle of legal continuity provided the new-old state with a starting point for vigorous, interlocking citizenship and property reforms that excluded Soviet-era settlers from the emerging body of citizens and naturalized Estonia’s dramatic transition to capitalism. As a precondition for membership in the European Union and NATO, Estonia launched in the late 1990s a national integration policy aimed at teaching mostly Russian-speaking Soviet-era settlers the Estonian language and reducing the number of people with undetermined citizenship. Twenty years into independence, Estonia is integrated into international organizations and takes pride in strong fiscal discipline, while income gaps continue to grow and nearly 7 per cent of the 1.36 million permanent residents are stateless; equally many have opted for Russian citizenship. Blending nationalist arguments with neoliberal ones, coalition parties are adamant about retaining the restorationist citizenship policy.
