Abstract:

The volume presents a selection of contributions related to integration,
adaptation, language attitudes and language change among young
Russian-speaking immigrants in Germany. At the turn of the century, Germany,
which defined itself as a mono-ethnic and mono-racial society, has become a
country integrating various immigrant groups. Among those, there are three
different types of Russian immigrants: Russian Germans, Russian Jews and
ethnic Russians, all three often perceived as “Russians” by the host country.
The three groups have the same linguistic background, but a different
ethnicity, known as “nationality”, a separate entry in Russian official
documents. This defined the immigration paths and the subsequent integration
into German society, where each group strives to position itself in relation
to two other groups in the same migrant space. The book discusses the
complexities of belonging and (self-/other) assignment to groups as well as
the attitude to language maintenance among young Russian-speaking immigrants.
