Summary:

Will the Non-Russians Rebel? is an integrated conceptual study of the nationality question in the Soviet Union. Grounded in contemporary social science theories, it makes a systematic attempt to confront the concepts of stability and ethnicity with that of the state and to place the Soviet Union in general and its nationality relations in particular within the resulting conceptual framework.
