An earlier version of this article was presented as keynote address at the conference “Eurasian Empire: Literary, Historical, and Political Responses to Russian Rule in the Twentieth Century,” Havighurst Center for Russian and Post-Soviet Studies, Miami University, Oxford, OH, October 2006. I would like to thank both the conference organizers for stimulating me to take on this project and the participants for their very helpful comments and questions. I would also like to thank Sergey Glebov and the Ab Imperio editors for their suggestions and assistance as I revised the lecture into an article. The article was written while I was on leave with support from the American Philosophical Society, ACLS/SSRC/NEH International and Area Studies Fellowship Program, the Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies at Harvard University, and the College of Humanities and Department of History at The Ohio State University.
