Zusammenfassung: | [...] the author's persistent use of the Swedish term Fennomani, instead of the correct Fennomania utilized by the nationalists themselves and other researchers, is only a minor issue, but the rhetorical notion of calling Stalin's Terijoki government a new Finnish state remains confusing. [...] the book is intended for a nonFinnish readership, but it could also have provided a first hand opportunity to discard wom out twentieth century ethnic and geographical simplifications, like the phrase "a country not blessed by nature" selling the book on the back cover. |
