Barbashin, M.Yu. Ideologization of ethnic and social research during the Soviet and post-Soviet periods: institutional evaluation.

Abstract: The article analyzes the institutional aspects of political ideology’s influence on ethnic and sociological research. The author stresses that the Soviet ethnic research was politicized and was used as method of reinforcing national policies. During the transitional period, ethnic and social academic disciplines became tools of political struggle between ethnic elites. The author concludes that deidealigozation of ethnic studies, which lack positivist moderation, is necessary.
