  • The Russian Population in Latvia
    The Russian Population in Latvia - The Russian Population in Latvia - Puppets of Moscow? Puppets of Moscow? Latvian integration policy concerns a complex of issues such as citizenship, school language Tomas Malmlöf:TheRussianPopulationinLatvia and minority status. The policy has let Latvia become an accepted member of the international community, but it is challenged by domestic Russian-speaking groups and by the Russian TOMAS MALMLÖF Federation. The disagreements originate in the interpretation of Latvian 20th century history and the definition of a national minority, based on the actual Latvian situation. A crucial question is whether Russia exercises any influence on the Latvia-Russian community, giving it an improper impact on Latvian interior affairs. Official Russian compatriot policy seems to have had little success in this, but it has still been able to keep the ethnic question in the Baltic states alive at the international level. Radical Russian free-lancers in ethnic policymaking might be a bigger nuisance for Latvia, but without official Russian support, they are in all likelihood easier to come to terms with. As a group, the Latvia-Russians seem to have reached a critical level of internal organisation with several political parties, NGOs and competing mass media. They have therefore turned into a self-sufficient actor capable of setting its own agenda instead of implementing the agenda of others. Thus the Latvia-Russians are hardly remote-controlled from Moscow, which, of course, does not prevent them from cooperating with different Russian actors when their interests coincide. Tomas Malmlöf is Master of Political Science and Economy and an expert on Russian business questions.

This is an updated and revised list of government parties and their ideological position that were first provided by WKB (2011). Therefore, countries that did not appear in WKB (2011) have no list of government parties in this update. Those countries include Bangladesh, Botswana, Czechoslovakia, Guyana, Jamaica, Namibia, Pakistan, South Africa, and Sri Lanka. For some countries in which new parties are frequently formed and/or political parties are frequently dissolved, we noted the year (and month) in which a political party was established. Note that this was done in order to facilitate our data collection, and therefore that information is not comprehensive. 2 Australia List of Governing Parties Australian Labor Party ALP Country Party

  • Russian and Serbian Minorities After Secession
    ETHNIC POLITICS IN NEW STATES: RUSSIAN AND SERBIAN MINORITIES AFTER SECESSION Anna Batta Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2013 APPROVED: Idean Salehyan, Major Professor John Ishiyama, Co-Major Professor T. David Mason, Committee Member Steven Forde, Committee Member Richard Ruderman, Chair of the Department of Political Science Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Batta, Anna. Ethnic Politics in New States: Russian and Serbian Minorities after Secession. Doctor of Philosophy (Political Science), May 2013, 295 pp., 22 tables, 15 figures, 234 titles. New states are often born in a volatile environment, in which the survival of the new country is uncertain. While analysis of the nationalizing new governments exists, research focuses mainly on domestic politics. I argue that the treatment of minority that remains in the new states is a function of the interaction of the dual threat posed by the minority itself domestically on one hand and the international threat coming from the mother state to protect its kin abroad on the other hand. Specifically, I argue that there is a curvilinear relationship between domestic and international threat and the extent of discrimination against the politically relevant minority. Most discrimination takes place when domestic and international threats are moderate because in this case there is a balance of power between the government, the minority, and the rump state. With time-series-cross-sectional (TSCS) data analysis this dissertation systematically tests the treatment of Russian and Serbian minorities in all post-Soviet and post-Yugoslav states between 1991 and 2006 and finds statistically significant results for the curvilinear hypothesis.

  • Manifesto Project Dataset List of Political Parties
    Manifesto Project Dataset List of Political Parties [email protected] Website: https://manifesto-project.wzb.eu/ Version 2020a from July 22, 2020 Manifesto Project Dataset - List of Political Parties Version 2020a 1 Coverage of the Dataset including Party Splits and Merges The following list documents the parties that were coded at a specific election. The list includes the name of the party or alliance in the original language and in English, the party/alliance abbreviation as well as the corresponding party identification number. In the case of an alliance, it also documents the member parties it comprises. Within the list of alliance members, parties are represented only by their id and abbreviation if they are also part of the general party list. If the composition of an alliance has changed between elections this change is reported as well. Furthermore, the list records renames of parties and alliances. It shows whether a party has split from another party or a number of parties has merged and indicates the name (and if existing the id) of this split or merger parties. In the past there have been a few cases where an alliance manifesto was coded instead of a party manifesto but without assigning the alliance a new party id. Instead, the alliance manifesto appeared under the party id of the main party within that alliance. In such cases the list displays the information for which election an alliance manifesto was coded as well as the name and members of this alliance. 2 Albania ID Covering Abbrev Parties No. Elections

  • Russian Community” As a Means of Self-Identification of Russians in Latvia
    SECTION III: MINORITY INTERGRATION The “Russian Community” as a Means of Self-identification of Russians in Latvia Vladislav Volkov 1. Introduction After Latvians, Russians are the largest ethnic group in Latvia: thus, in 2008 Latvians comprised 59.2% of the country's population (1.345 million out of 2.276 million), and Russians comprised 28.0% (0.638 million). (Latvia, 2009, 1). Russians as ethnic minority differ from other ethnic minorities in Latvia – the Byelorussians, the Ukrainians, the Lithuanians, the Poles, the Jews, etc. – in numbers as well as in qualitative characteristics when organizing their own socio-cultural infrastructure. The population of the Latvian Russians outnumbers more than twice the corresponding number of all the other ethnic minorities in Latvia taken together. The proportion of the Russian population within the structure of the population of Latvia is the most important factor that influences formation of this ethnic minority’s identity. Besides the ethno-demographic factor, the identity of Russians in Latvia is formed under the influence of their socio- cultural and public-political life as well as some forms of social communi- cation. Unlike other ethnic minorities, the Latvian Russians during the years of the restored Latvian Republic since 1991 have managed to create a socio- cultural infrastructure on the basis of their mother tongue. This socio- cultural infrastructure involves wide spread of the Russian language in the sphere of Latvian entrepreneurship, in the system of private education (including higher education), in the sphere of entertainment and mass media. One part of the professional culture in Latvia also functions in the Russian language (the oldest outside Russia, Riga’s M.

  • The Influence of Party Competition on Minority Politics: a Comparison of Latvia and Estonia
    Journal on Ethnopolitics and Minority Issues in Europe Vol 13, No 1, 2014, 57-85 Copyright © ECMI 2014 This article is located at: http://www.ecmi.de/fileadmin/downloads/publications/JEMIE/2014/Nakai.pdf The Influence of Party Competition on Minority Politics: A Comparison of Latvia and Estonia Ryo Nakai* Rikkyo University The aim of the research presented in this article is to highlight differences in inter-ethnic political relations on minority issues in Latvia and Estonia, and how the varied structures of their political party competitions have affected the ethno- political landscapes of the two countries. Though Estonia and Latvia had similar starting points with their respective minority questions, the political elites in both republics have demonstrated different responses to this issue, and inter-ethnic political relations in Latvia and Estonia have demonstrated divergent paths. While the citizenship and language laws of Latvia adopted or amended by majority parties are still restrictive, those of Estonia are relatively less so. The Russophone minorities in Latvia have intensified their support for ethnic parties, while in Estonia no ethnic party currently has any seats in the national parliament. Moreover, Russophone residents in Latvia organize political rallies or movements more often than in Estonia. The party systems of Latvia and Estonia are significantly important as an explanatory factor for this variance. Under the fragmented party system in Latvia, ethnic majorities’ political elites exploit ethnic issues to mobilize support from Latvian voters and to win popularity over political rivals. This has generated spiralling dynamics of restrictive policies and political protests by Russian-speakers. In contrast, Estonian political elites function under a relatively consolidated party system and, instead, seek to incorporate Russophone voters to win elections.
