Scope and Content of Collection

The Joan Beecher Eichrodt collection consists of sound recordings, transcripts and summaries of interviews, notes, reports, conference proceedings, newspapers, other printed matter, and photographs relating to nationalism and separatism in Chechnya and elsewhere in the Caucasus.
As a Voice of America correspondent, Eichrodt made frequent trips to the Soviet Union to cover the Congress of People's Deputies (S"ezd narodnykh deputatov), a democratically elected assembly created by Mikhail Gorbachev in 1989. Through a series of interviews with Congress members, Eichrodt documented the attitudes of Russian officials toward Gorbachev's union treaty and the rights of autonomous republics, audiotapes of which can be found in the Russia subseries of the Sound Recordings series.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Eichrodt was interested primarily in nationalist and separatist groups within the Russian Federation, particularly the North Caucasus. In 1994, she received a MacArthur grant to write a book on the history and contemporary politics of the North Caucasus, the proposal for which can be found in the Personal File.
From 1994 to 1996, Eichrodt used her grant to travel extensively in the Caucasus, interviewing hundreds of local government officials, citizens, and refugees on separatist movements and territorial conflicts. These taped interviews are in the Sound Recordings series and grouped by Caucasian republic. Included among Eichrodt's interviewees are Chechen presidents Dzhokhar Dudaev and Aslan Maskhadov, Ingushetian president Ruslan Aushev, opposition leader Zelimkhan Iandarbiev and public figure Ruslan Labazanov. Most of the interviews conducted in Chechnya are on domestic affairs from 1990 to 1997, although some relate to Stalin's 1944 deportations of Chechens and Ingush. The collection includes Interview Transcripts of selected tapes as well as Notebooks maintained by Eichrodt during her interviews and research trips.
In addition to the hundreds of recorded interviews, the bulk of the collection consists of Research Materials, Clippings and Newspapers related to Eichrodt's Voice of America reports, as well as her planned book on the Caucasus. Topics include history of the North Caucasian republics, the 1994-1996 war between Russia and Chechnia, ethnic relations, and cross-border conflicts in the Caucasus, particularly between Ingushetia and Ossetia.
