Could anyone help me out? I do not know what phrase or subject here "at the expense of " modifies for :-(. As far as I know, "at the expense of " goes before a "noun".
"This trend towards establishing the primacy of national cultures and languages at the expense of Russian builds on twenty years of steady nationalization of the culture of these states as a matter of deliberate policy, on their deliberate efforts to maintain an openness to the larger globalizing trends in the world economy, and on a generation of growing restrictions on Russian language use in broadcasting and other media."
Thanks so much!
