Ammon Cheskin: Russian speakers in post-Soviet Latvia: Discursive identity strategies

Authors

Abstract

The above immediately came to mind when I was asked by Wayles Browne, the Review Editor, to review this book by Ammon Cheskin, a colleague I have met at several conferences. Being an Estonian Russian (according to the most often used official classification of various ethnic groups living in Estonia who happen to speak Russian as their first language) and a sociolinguist, I am often asked by laypeople and by colleagues from here and abroad whether I feel more Russian or more Estonian. The answer to this question is: neither.
