heal.abstract
This dissertation was written as part of the MA in Black Sea Cultural
Studies at the International Hellenic University. The aim of the research is
to provide an overview over the problematic or even absent in some cases
representation of the post–Soviet ethnicities that exist as minorities within
the newly established states in the Black Sea region. To serve that purpose
the origins and the current predicaments that those people are faced with
shall be presented and possible solutions shall be suggested. The Crimean
Tatars who live in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea within Ukraine will
be the case study for this research. More specifically, the essay will start
with an informative introduction that contextualizes the issue of
representation into a broader framework. In addition, definitions,
important data and a brief historical review will display the necessary
background information. Special attention will be paid to the norm of self
determination and the fundamental human, civil and political rights. In this
research the representation of the Crimean Tatars is going to be examined
by unfolding the level at which the fundamental human, cultural, civil and
social rights are currently enjoyed by the Crimean Tatars. The main part
of the research will be divided in several, more analytical sections. The
first chapter will present the historical background and important data
concerning the Crimean Tatars. This part will include the ethnic origin as
well as the historical effect that certain policies had. The second part of the
first Chapter will present the problematic relationship with the host-state in
accordance to the nationalist mobilization. Within this framework, the
unsettled issues will be presented. Moving on to the contemporary era, the
second Chapter will present the framework of the events of the annexation
of Crimea by the Russian Federation and will unfold analytically certain
cases of violations of the rights of the Crimean Tatar community during
2014. In the third Chapter the role of international law and international
organizations will be stressed for being one of the focal points through
which representation can be realized. This chapter will shortly present the
international binding organizations, NGO’s and other fora that concern
both the Crimean Tatars per se and the wider realization of he rights that
ensure representation. Moreover, the role of International Courts will be
underlined. The last but not least part will include conclusions, remarks
and an attempt of theorizing the data into a broader perspective.
