Summary
The organisational and methodological background of the survey on second-generation Russians in Estonia
Empirical analyses presented in this volume are based on the Russian Second Generation Survey in Estonia, a sub-project of ‘The Integration of the European Second Generation’ (TIES). This larger international comparison, initiated by the Institute for Migration and Ethnic Studies (IMES) at the University of Amsterdam, began in 2005. At the beginning of 2006, the Institute of International and Social Studies (IISS) at Tallinn University became an associated member of TIES. The survey design followed, as far as possible, the concepts, definitions, indicators and questionnaire modules of the larger TIES project. From January to December 2006, a team comprising six researchers from different departments of IISS worked on adapting the TIES survey as an instrument apt for the Estonian situation and the new target group. The questionnaire for Russian youth was translated into Russian during September and October 2006 and a pilot study was conducted in October and November of that year.
IISS also participated in developing the common questionnaire of the TIES group from January to August 2006. In addition, members of the research team participated in conferences coordinated by TIES, benefiting from both the knowledge of the methodological challenges that fellow TIES participants faced in the field as well as solutions that were implemented.
Finance for participation in the development of a common questionnaire, and its adaptation for Russian youth in January to August 2006, was provided by the Chancellery of the Republic of Estonia. The survey implementation in Estonia was financed by a grant from Tallinn University Research Council. As the fieldwork turned out to consume more time and resources than expected, extra funding for finishing the survey was supplied by the City Government of Tallinn and the Chancellery of the Republic of Estonia. Funding for cleaning up and processing the database and the analysis carried out for writing up the country report came from the Estonian Science Foundation Grant No. 7720 ‘Integration of Second Generation Russians in Estonia’, (grant holder Prof. Raivo Vetik).
