This chapter shows how Russia’s post-Soviet legislation in the field of minority rights bears the indelible traces of her Imperial and Soviet history, and is also the product of intense ideological and theoretical debates since 1991. I start with a brief account of the organizing principles of the Russian Empire, and how these survived the Soviet period in barely altered form. Next, I touch on the most significant theoretical debate, which has determined the main contours of minorities legislation in post-Communist Russia. Third, I set out the international legal instruments with which Russia must comply in its legislation. Fourth, in the context already explored, I give an overview of Russia legislation. My conclusion reflects my understanding of the lack of system and inconsistency in Russian legislation in the area of minority rights.
