Currently there appears to be no neutral platform for that minority to express their ideas and problems concerning the life in Estonia. Here's how I see one option of dissolving that gap:
Academic (non-political) alliance of Russian-speaking people would create their own interactive web-portal, which is updated in three languages and has modern graphical interface. At that portal Estonian people could read of different opinions by Russian readers and also there could be a platform for polite discussion.
This portal would reduce the information and understanding gap between the two nations or at least help towards that goal.
Written on the task "Choose a minority group and describe how they can make use of Internet to reduce alienation and prejudice."

ReplyDeleteIs this an Estonian or Russian point of view? Do you really consider relevant for having another portal for fruitful discussion? What about rus.delfi, lifejournal etc?

ReplyDeletewell when describing the idea, I presumed today's options are too one-sided (anti-Estonian mostly), meaning that nationalism is having too broad voice.
I don't approve of Delfi, as it is has no real voice (nobody important to listen reads or writes to delfi), but blogs (livejournal) could be the platform.
But then it is still necessary to have some sort of direction for these kinds of blogs. Is there one?
