common ethnic bias

Explanation:
The context suggests ethnic issues, rather than national ones.

--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 2003-03-10 20:59:40 (GMT)
--------------------------------------------------

Ethnic bias has two meanings: 1) preconceived notions that one individual holds about another based on his ethnicity [commonly referred to as натциональност in Russian], and 2) a skewing of statistical findings based on uncontrolled factors which are more prevalent among a given ethnic group.

everyday nationalism

Many forms of cultural nationalism qualify as \"everyday nationalism.\" Although such nationalism-- dressed-up in culturalist explanations and myths of uniqueness-- does not evoke images of xenophobic tirades, marching soldiers, and military threats, it does bolster ethnic exclusivism, heightened ethnocultural self-consciousness, racialized notions of identity, and an economic guardedness vis-€-vis the world.

\"When discussing nationalism or racism, we can talk about _everyday nationalism_ and racism, political nationalism and racism, but cannot talk about nationalism or racism that is targeted at specific ethnic groups and is generated by another specific group of people.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)

agree

Olga Demiryurek: Could it be just "ethnicism"?

17 mins

-> Not usually. The normal terms are "ethnicity" -- i.e. "what role does ethnicity play in their views?" Or "ethnic bias" -- i.e. "Is this survey subject to ethnic bias?"

agree

Elizabeth Adams: you're absolutely right-but why not just say "plain old garden variety RACISM?"

34 mins

-> Thanks Elizabeth. I don't think they would do that here, because the tone seems to be objective/scientific. Racism is a bit charged, and the author could have chosen расизм in the first place.

agree

Sergey Strakhov

46 mins

-> Thanks, Sergey.

neutral

Dmitry Arch: 'bytovoi' is not the same as 'obychnyi'; examples of 'bytovoi natsionalism' include ethnic jokes and complaining in a private conversation that a certain ethnic group is too widely represented in the government or at the market place

2 hrs

-> It does indeed mean common or everyday in many contexts.

agree

xeni (X): yeah, that's it!

-> Thanks, Xenos.

zmejka: I like Elizabeth's version, too!

private acts of ethnic chauvinism

Explanation:
(vs. institutional discrimination)

В России еще в первые годы после революции 1917 года был искажен смысл слова "национальность" - его стали употреблять (и до сих пор употребляют) в смысле "этническое проихождение". Соответственно, слово "национализм" приобрело значение "этнический шовинизм", и именно это значение реализуется в сочетании с прилагательным "бытовой". Остальное отлично разъясняется в статье, на которую дается ссылка.
