苏联民族工作的理论和指导思想及苏联解决民族问题的基本思路都源于列宁的思想。在苏联存在的70年间,苏共为解决民族问题做了大量的工作,取得很大的成就,也存在很多问题,有些问题的影响甚至外溢到其他国家。苏联民族工作失败的原因可以从苏共、民族关系理论和国体等角度进行探讨。 The theory and guiding ideology of the Soviet Union’s national work and the basic thinking of the Soviet Union in solving the national question originate from Lenin’s thought. In the 70 years since the Soviet Union was in existence, the CPSU has done a great deal of work to solve the ethnic issue, achieved great achievements and has many problems. Some of its problems have even spilled over to other countries. The reasons for the failure of Soviet nationality work can be explored from the perspectives of the CPSU, the theory of ethnic relations and the state body.
