Notes
∗ This paper is based on the authors’ longer study, The Helsinki Watch Committees in the Soviet Republics: Implications for the Soviet Nationality Question, which was supported in whole or in part from funds provided by the National Council for Soviet and East European Research, under Council Contract Number 621–9. Travel to Garmisch‐Partenkirchen has been — in Bilinsky's case — made possible by grants from the American Council of Learned Societies and the University of Delaware. The authors would like to thank their benefactors and explicitly stress that the authors alone are responsible for the contents of this paper. Paper presented at Second World Congress on Soviet and East European Studies, Garmisch‐Partenkirchen, German Federal Republic, September 30‐October 4, 1980.
