Vaatluse all on kaks näidet: 1993. aasta autonoomia referendum ning 2015. aastal alanud arutelu Narva kui võimaliku Vene Föderatsiooni sihtmärgi ja kohalike lojaalsuse ja identiteedi osas.

Artikkel analüüsib, kuidas ajapikku muutus referendumi teemaline avalik diskursus ning kuidas see transformeerus ühiskondlikus mälus uudiste objektist lähiajaloo sündmuseks, mis leiab oma koha muuseumiruumides ja mälestusteraamatutes.

Driven by this, the local council of Narva, a city located by the Russian border, came to an understanding that there is a need for autonomy – which, according to the city council, should be reflected in being able to veto legal acts issued by Estonian authorities. The referendum on the autonomy of Narva, held in 1993, is a special event in Estonian history. For the Estonian state, which had regained its independence in 1991, this was a great challenge, as the situation was competely new and unexpected. Despite active involvement of representatives of Russia in the proccess and almost 100% support for autonomy by Narva residents, the Supreme Court of Estonia declared the results of the referendum illegal and there were no attempts of the same scale to campaign for autonomy in the following years. The referendum served as an effective tool to attract attention to the problems of the Russian-speaking population, and attract attention away from Narva’s problems with coping with increased administrative burden in the case of real autonomy.
The presentation of a superficial concept for Narva’s autonomy following the court decision meant that the leaders of the autonomy movement had no clear vision of an autonomous Narva, i.e. the whole event had been nothing but a farce from the very beginning.
