ABSTRACT:
The Kremlin’s recent attempt to merge Adygeya and Krasnodar Krai showed a disregard for local ethno-national sensitivities which smacked of what Lenin once called, “Great Russian Chauvinism.” In his haste to address the enduring political realities of the region, President Putin is evidently underestimating the formidable power of ethno-nationalism. This rashness is rooted in the mentality of Great Russian chauvinism. It threatens to provoke ethno-national bandwagoning across the North Caucasus, and lends encouragement to local political opportunists, themselves intent on realising their own political ambitions.
