Abstract
- This article asserts that Western countries must address as a policy issue the growing nationalism in Eastern Europe and especially in the Soviet Union itself. According to the author, the West preferred to downplay the reality of East European national aspirations and to downgrade the implications of non-Russian national awareness within the Soviet Union. With the elimination of communism and the emergence of nationalism, the author calls on the Western countries to define its interests. He claims that what is in Eastern Europe is bound to affect the internal affairs of the Soviet Union. The national repression in the Soviet Union would affect adversely the process of democratization in Eastern Europe.
