New language identity in transforming societies: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan

Ziel

Central Asia is a crucial case study in assessing the relationship between ethnic distinctiveness and the emerging state/national identity in the context of societies in transition. It is also extremely instructive with respect to the process of new national identity and citizenship formation that became the urgent task for all post-Soviet republics after the collapse of the USSR.
The project intends to carry out a systematic and comparative study of individual and social circumstances and attitudes which affect the language identity change (or absence of such) at ethnic, national and individual levels among titular, Russian and other groups in
(a) Kazakhstan,
(b) Kyrgyzstan
(c) Tajikistan, and
(d) Uzbekistan.
The research results will allow the establishment of trends amidst shifting views of relations between titular and other ethnic groups. The aim is twofold.
First, the study seeks to break new ground in determining perceptions of, attitudes to, and experience with the growing nationalization in the countries by measuring language use and attitudes towards languages and language policies among different ethnic groups.
Secondly, the research aims to evaluate the level of ethnic language distinctiveness of minority groups in Central Asia.
The innovative aspects of the project are that the salience of identity continuation/discontinuation is researched in a cross-country design and ethnic and national identifications are explicitly researched through language behavioral intentions, actual language use and language attitudes. Data will be collected in Kazakhstan (N = 1000 Kazakhs, 1000 Russians and 1000 other ethnic minorities), Kyrgyzstan (N = 1000 Kyrgyz, 1000 Russians and 1000 other ethnic minorities), Tajikistan (N = 1000 Tajiks, 2000 Russians and other ethnic minorities), and Uzbekistan (N = 1000 Uzbeks, 2000 Russians and other ethnic minorities) by the Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Tajik, and Uzbek partners. Turkmenistan is not included in the research due to the well-known political considerations. Ethnic minorities to be included in the survey will include not only non-titular ethnic groups (both those who have country of their own outside of Central Asia and those who do not), such as Koreans, Germans, Jews, Chechens, Uyghurs, Turks, Ukrainians, etc., but also cross-country minorities, such as Kazakhs in Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan, Uzbeks in Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan, Tajiks in Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan. Special interest will be paid to Russians who were a social, political, and demographic heavyweight during the Soviet period and who have the hardest time, according to some researchers, adjusting to the new realities of the transforming societies, including the creation of the new national identities. Data will be analyzed by the Kazakh, Israeli, and Finnish partners in cooperation with the Kyrgyz, Tajik, and Uzbek groups, and the results will be reported in articles in leading international journals in the field of language policy and planning, as well as at the various round tables and conferences. The research will be a valuable interdisciplinary source, since it could be utilized in virtually all social studies and humanities settings.
