The Tatar language was made second official in Tatarstan along with Russian. This has paved way for the ambitious program of the Tatar language revitalization which was aimed at ensuring the vitality of the language and raising its social status. This work examines the policies of the Tatar language revitalization and analyzes the reasons for its successes and failures.
