Tiivistelmä: | This article explores the connections between ethnicity and economic transition in three republics of Russia- Tatarstan, North Ossetia and Sakha (Yakutia). Tatarstan and Sakha have been leaders in the quest for expanded republic rights, garnering some of the most dramatic concessions from the federal government during the period of 'high sovereignty' (1991-99). Both republics won control over substantial shares of hard currency trade in local resources (oil in Tatarstan, and diamonds, gold, oil and gas, among other things, in Sakha). They have had the most discretion over local resources and arguably the most leeway of any Russian regions in allocating rewards to local constituents. |
