本文评价了俄罗斯民族共和国的语言政策，以民族群体讲芬兰-乌戈尔语后，以了解为什么这些政策对他们的社会语言学情况的影响有限。这是一项以定量研究为基础的分析性研究，在政策分析的框架内调查政策产出与结果之间的联系，以检验行为和态度的变化可以追溯到语言管理模式的假设。该研究提供了一套系统化的数据，说明为在各共和国内创造语言知识、使用和态度的条件而采取的措施，并寻找各种变量之间的相互关系。定量数据的来源包括法律的和其他官方文件、可获得的官方统计数据以及现有的社会学和社会语言学调查。这种政策评估有助于从理论上理解复兴项目作为“自上而下”的公共政策所追求的局限性。
The paper evaluates language policies of the ethnic republics of Russia titled after the ethnic groups speaking Finno-Ugric languages in order to understand why the policies had limited impact on their sociolinguistic situations. This is an empirical-analytical study based on quantitative research that investigates within the framework of policy analysis the link between policy outputs and outcomes in order to test the hypothesis that changes in behaviour and attitudes can be traced back to the patterns of languagemanagement. The study produces a systematized set of data on measures taken to create the conditions for language knowledge, use and attitudes in the republics and searches for correlations among variables. The sources of quantitative data include legal and other official documents, accessible official statistics and available sociological and sociolinguistic surveys. Such a policy evaluation contributes to the theoretical understanding of the limits of the revivalist project pursued as a “top-down” public policy.
