Scholars, experts, journalists, students and other specialists are invited to make contributions to the new web-resource “Links on Russian Nationalism” at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/russian_nationalism/links. There are several folders with over 150 links to relevant papers, bibliographies, books, primary sources and other material that is freely available on the WWW. Altogether, the various resources to which these links lead list hundreds of various texts related, in one way or another, to Russian nationalism.

You can add a text already published and freely accessible on the web by simply following the below instructions. Or, you can add a yet unpublished text or a text not yet freely available on the web to this list. For doing the latter, you would first have to publish this text somewhere else on the WWW, for instance, within an established web newspaper, specialized web site, or scholarly web journal that allows free access to its articles. Once your text has appeared there, you can set a link to your new web-based publication in the appropriate folder of the „Links“ section.

For making the addition to the „Links“ list, you would have to create a Yahoo-Account of your own (unless you have already one). Please, visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/russian_nationalism/, and click „Join this Group“ (you can easily leave the group and Yahoo later). Once you have become a group member, go to “Links”, open the relevant folder and click „Add Link“. Follow the instructions and apply the format/style of the previous listings which is the following:

Please, feel free to add relevant links as you see fit. Sometimes contributions from one folder to another might be moved. For instance, if you are a Russian patriot who wants to add a link to an article with a theory of why Russia should dominate some other people, your contribution might be moved from the folder „Theorizing Russian Nationalism“ to the folder „Programs, Interviews and Other Primary Sources“. Usually, relevant contributions will not be entirely removed, but might only repositioned. Only additions that have little empirical substance, analytic rigor, documentary value or/and theoretical insight (i.e. are largely useless for scholarly purposes), or that have no relation to Russian nationalism will be deleted. For instance, if you want to talk about Estonian nationalism, German neo-Nazism, Ukrainian ethnocentrism, or American imperialism, you will have to create your own Yahoo Group for that. (The Yahoo-Groups function is open to everybody; only little technical expertise is necessary to set up such a Group.)

Once you want to leave the group, please, send an empty e-mail to: russian_nationalism-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com, or cancel your Yahoo account.
