They show the varying success of the Soviet determination to protect native languages and occupations while allowing people to participate in socialist institutions such as schools, collective farms, and the Communist Party. For the final years, they describe how aboriginal political activists sought to protect aborigines in nations where they were a minority, and wrestled with the enduring tradeoff between improving people's lives and preserving national traditions Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record Subject Indigenous peoples -- Education -- Russia (Federation) -- Siberia -- History Education and state -- Soviet Union -- History EDUCATION -- Bilingual Education.
