Zu Geschichte und Gegenwart der deutschen Sprachinseln in Russland und der ehemaligen Sowjetunion
(2006)
This essay deals with the German speaking islands in Russia and the territories of the former Soviet Union. There will be an overview of the formation and historical development of the linguistic islands (in the 19th and 20th centuries), and the present situation of the german linguistic islands in Russia is described. The development is marked by an abrupt change in the situation, that is, migration and emigration to Germany. As a result, almost all the old well functioning German linguistic islands have recently ceased to exist. Also in the recently formed so-called German National Districts, language loss has progressed fairly rapidly. At the present, it is not clear if the German language islands have any future at all.
