Reviews of my first book, Nation, Language, Islam
“a richly detailed account of the
complexities and ambiguities involved in a post-Soviet nation-building project,
vividly illustrating how Tatarstan’s quest for sovereignty affected the lives
of those who experienced it”
“breadth in no way comes at the
expense of depth”
“Faller’s up-close examination of
Tatarstan’s sovereignty movement is as yet unparalleled in providing insight
into the lives of those who inhabit one of Russia’s most culturally rich
regions. It is,
in short, essential reading…”

“engaging and insightful”
“insightfully challenges normative notions of
nation-state building and identity construction processes.
Faller thoughtfully engages with the way
different agents (citizens, politicians, newspapers) interpret and engage with
language and culture”
“a well-written and useful read”
Europe-Asia
Studies Jan 2014
“a clear illustration that the role
of language in nation-building is not as homogeneous as many Western theorists,
focusing mainly on a bourgeois, male, Western public, have
implied.”
