ESTONIAN MODERN HISTORY IN THE TWENTY­-FIRST CENTURY
ESTONIAN MODERN HISTORY IN THE TWENTY­-FIRST CENTURY

Summary/Abstract: This article presents a short overview of Estonian and international research on the nineteenth century in Estonia during the decades since the re­establishment of independence in 1991, with a focus on work published in the twenty­first century. The authors discuss the most important directions of re­ search – socioeconomic history in rural and urban environments, Estonian nationalism and the devel­opment of ethnic milieus of Baltic Germans and Russians, the history of Estonia as part of a larger empire and, albeit very briefly, also cultural history. The authors also identify a number of topics still in need of attention by scholars.
