  • The Crimean Tatar Question: a Prism for Changing Nationalisms and Rival Versions of Eurasianism*
    The Crimean Tatar Question: A Prism for Changing Nationalisms and Rival Versions of Eurasianism* Andrew Wilson Abstract: This article discusses the ongoing debates about Crimean Tatar identity, and the ways in which the Crimean Tatar question has been crucial to processes of reshaping Ukrainian identity during and after the Euromaidan. The Crimean Tatar question, it is argued, is a key test in the struggle between civic and ethnic nationalism in the new Ukraine. The article also looks at the manner in which the proponents of different versions of “Eurasianism”—Russian, Volga Tatar, and Crimean Tatar—have approached the Crimean Tatar question, and how this affects the attitudes of all these ethnic groups to the Russian annexation of Crimea. Key words: Crimean Tatars, Euromaidan, Eurasianism, national identity, nationalism—civic and ethnic Introduction In the period either side of the Russian annexation of Crimea, the Crimean Tatar issue has become a lodestone for redefining the national identities of all the parties involved. The mainstream Crimean Tatar movement has been characterized by steadfast opposition first to the Yanukovych regime in Ukraine and then to Russian rule. This position has strengthened its longstanding ideology of indigenousness and special rights, but it has also * The author is extremely grateful to Ridvan Bari Urcosta for his invaluable help with research for this article, to Bob Deen and Zahid Movlazada at the OSCE HCNM, to Professor Paul Robert Magocsi, and to the anonymous reviewers who made useful comments and criticisms. 1 2 ANDREW WILSON belatedly cemented its alliance with Ukrainian nationalism. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s would‐be new supra‐ethnic civic identity draws heavily on the Crimean Tatar contribution.

The food is relevant and valuable to any people at ay stages of its development, therefore in each language the lexical-thematic group “food” presents a significant number of lexical items, many of which have a long history in the language. Due to the natural habitat of the people, its main historical occupations, the cultural and historical development of food, related national cuisine is one of the most specific areas of the culture, which is reflected in its linguistic scope. Main factors determining the nature of traditional dish are the way of life of the people, economy, religion, natural resources, climate, geography of the country, neighboring peoples, etc. National Tatar cuisine was influenced by external factors and formed to provide the human body with all of the nutrients to promote effective adaptation to the environmental conditions. The article discusses the food names of the Tatar language on the background of those natural conditions that influenced the formation of eating behavior of the ethnic group. Studying the food vocabulary leads to the conclusion that each language is an integral part of the life of any nation and the history of a native speakers.

  • Culinary Heritage of Lithuanian Tatars
    https://doi.org/10.7592/YBBS2.09 THE QUESTION OF PRESERVATION OF NATIONAL TRADITIONS: CULINARY HERITAGE OF LITHUANIAN TATARS Galina Miškinienė Research Centre of Written Heritage, Institute of Lithuanian Language, Vilnius, Lithuania e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The history of Lithuanian Tatars settled in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania encompasses more than 620 years. During all these years they were influenced by various political, economic, religious factors. This cul- turally and ethnically heterogeneous community due to the co-living side by side with Christians has been strongly assimilated and integrated to the local society. Tatars brought unique tradition, where pre-Islamic traditions and Islamic dogmas were tightly bounded. This mentioned synthesis did not stop evolving and changing. Finally, it was supplemented by elements, taken from Belarusians, Poles, Lithuanians and other nations of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, who had become neighbours of Tatars. Combination of several different cultures gave a distinctive shade to the faith, customs, and daily life as well as to the cultural heritage of Lithuanian Tatars. There are little works dedicated to the cultural heritage, especially to the cuisine of Lithuanian Tatars. Sparsely preserved culinary heritage of Lithuanian Tatars and its varieties in the national cuisine of Lithuania is being discussed in this article. Keywords: cuisine, features, heritage, Lithuanian Tatars, traditions Galina Miškinienė Introduction Mostly distant to the West from their Turkic compatriots and living in Eastern Europe, the ethnical group of Lithuanian Tatars1 celebrated the 620th anniversary of the settlement in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in 2017. The Tatars arrived from Kipchak steppes and Crimea, bringing particular culture.

  • Formation of the Vision Alimentary Culture of the Region Among Migrants As the Method of Their Integration
    Proceedings IFTE-2020, 0487-0498 doi:10.3897/ap.2.e0487 VI International Forum on Teacher Education Formation of the Vision Alimentary Culture of the Region among Migrants as the Method of Their Integration Vyacheslav S. Dryagalov (a), Vladimir V. Palatkin (b), Andrey A. Sharonov * (c) (a), (b), (c) Astrakhan State University, 414056, Astrakhan (Russia), 20a Tatishcheva street, [email protected] Abstract The problems of the successful integration migrants due to the fact of recent political and economic events have acquired special political, socio-economic and cultural significance for Russia. Ensuring stable living of representatives of various ethnic groups and newly arriving migrants in a common society is a serious problem for each multi-ethnic territory. It requires the development of its own adaptation scenarios that take into account the peculiarities of regional national cultures. One of the ways to solve this problem, on the one hand, is to form functional knowledge about the features of the culture of migrants in the host country and, on the other hand, is to host ethnic groups in the culture of migrants. In this process, one of the means of successful integration can be the joint holding of national rites and celebrations. One of the important components of rituals and holidays is the culture of food consumption. The multidimensional phenomenon of the culture is particularly evident in elementary culture, the culture of food consumption, which includes the ethnic, religious and mental specifics of representatives of all traditionally living ethnic groups. The food code is one of the elements of an alimentary culture. Being a basic part of any ethnic or national culture and representing a system of cultural codes, around which the rest of the culture is built, it helps to realize oneself in the world, successfully communicate and avoid conflicts.
