Résumé anglais Eden Naby, The Assyrians of the Soviet Union. Soviet Assyrians, the bulk of whom fled north from Iran and Turkey during the general Assyrian diaspora caused by the events of World War I, have, in the past, derived extensive cultural benefit from their status as a recognized Soviet nationality. In a number of cases, their path has diverged from that of the remainder of world wide Assyrians. One fundamental development setting them apart from other Assyrians has been the replacement of the Syriac alphabet with the Latin alphabet. Another divergence has emerged as a result of the official Soviet anti- religious stand. The Soviet Assyrians, on a relatively small scale, reflect the changes which larger Soviet nationalities also experienced. Despite a certain trend toward assimilation into Russian culture, the small Assyrian community continues to maintain its nationality culture.
