These decades has become a history lesson convincing Ukrainian students that only expression of the will of people is able to engender values that could not be destroyed by any invaders or occupiers. The Ukrainian were fighting against outlanders «not because they are outlanders, but because they are exploiters» and created own history, because «nobody will not build a state for us if we do not build it by ourselves, and none of us would make a nation, if we don’t want to be the nation». And they were convinced that an independent Ukrainian state is a historical necessity «for comprehension and prolongation of European balance».

UKRAINIAN STATEHOOD: ORIGINS, FORMS, TRENDS Content module 2. THE UKRAINIAN ISSUE AT THE BEGINNING OF XX CENTURY CHAPTER I. NEW TRENDS IN SOCIO-POLITICAL LIFE OF UKRAINE AT THE BEGINNING OF XX CENTURY Ukrainian lands at the beginning of the XX century were divided between two empires - the Austro-Hungarian - Eastern Halychyna, Transcarpathia, Northern Bukovina (about 15%) and Russian - Sloboda, Left Bank, Right Bank, Volyn, South (85%). If we compare the situation of the Ukrainian people as a part this empire, we could conclude that life of Ukrainian in the socio-economic sector was relatively easier in the Russian Empire, because there, especially in the Donbas and the Dnieper, after the reforms of the 60's and 70's of the nineteenth century, rapid industrial development took place, large areas of land (southern Ukraine) were available etc. In the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the economic development of Western Ukraine has been greatly slowed. As for spiritual, cultural and national development, it should be emphasized that, on the contrary, in the Russian Empire, the majority of expressions of national life were fully suppressed, it is enough to recall the notorious Valuev (1863) and Ems (1876) decrees (the prohibition Ukrainian language). In the Austro-Hungarian Empire Ukrainian had some rights

Rublyov Translated by Szarapow Nestor Makhno, the great Ukranian anarchist peasant rebel escaped over the border to Romania in August 1921. He would never return, but the struggle between Makhnovists and Bolsheviks carried on until the mid-1920s. In the cities, too, underground anarchist networks kept alive the idea of stateless socialism and opposition to the party state. New research printed here shows the extent of anarchist opposition to Bolshevik rule in the Ukraine in the 1920s and 1930s. Cover: 1921 Soviet poster saying "the bandits bring with them a ghost of old regime. Everyone struggle with banditry!" While the tsarist policeman is off-topic here (but typical of Bolshevik propaganda in lumping all their enemies together), the "bandit" probably looks similar to many makhnovists.

  • (Re)Conceptualization of Memory in Ukraine After the Revolution of Dignity
    ARTICLES (Re)conceptualization of Memory in Ukraine 46 Csilla FEDINEC István CSERNICSKO after the Revolution of Dignity (Re)conceptualization of Memory in Ukraine after the Revolution of Dignity Csilla FEDINEC István CSERNICSKO Abstract In Ukraine, having arrived at a critical stage of its history, three areas can be highlighted at the level of legislation during the struggle for the way forward since the end of 2013: the language issue, the constitutional process, and the efforts to eliminate the Soviet legacy. The subject of our analysis is the four laws belonging to the 2015 legislative package on decommunization, with an outlook to the broader context, as well. The four laws in question decide about who are heroes and who are enemies in history; what Ukraine’s relationship is with World War II, as well as with the Communist and Nazi regimes. The laws point out firmly and excluding any further debate the primacy of the country’s independence over all else, and the protection of the ideal of independence by any means concerning both the past and the present. The laws prescribe impeachment as a sanction for denying their contents. This story – hot memory influenced by politics – will be summarized for the period of 2015–2016. Keywords Ukraine, "decommunization package", national memory, identity crises, democratic values Jan Assmann’s impactful concept of memory developed in the 1990s breaks up the unitary categories of history and memory, and offers a nuanced typology of the typical uses of the past today. Regarding the latter, Assmann distinguishes between ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ memory. Hot memory directly shapes our present lives.

  • Title of Thesis: ABSTRACT CLASSIFYING BIAS
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: CLASSIFYING BIAS IN LARGE MULTILINGUAL CORPORA VIA CROWDSOURCING AND TOPIC MODELING Team BIASES: Brianna Caljean, Katherine Calvert, Ashley Chang, Elliot Frank, Rosana Garay Jáuregui, Geoffrey Palo, Ryan Rinker, Gareth Weakly, Nicolette Wolfrey, William Zhang Thesis Directed By: Dr. David Zajic, Ph.D. Our project extends previous algorithmic approaches to finding bias in large text corpora. We used multilingual topic modeling to examine language-specific bias in the English, Spanish, and Russian versions of Wikipedia. In particular, we placed Spanish articles discussing the Cold War on a Russian-English viewpoint spectrum based on similarity in topic distribution. We then crowdsourced human annotations of Spanish Wikipedia articles for comparison to the topic model. Our hypothesis was that human annotators and topic modeling algorithms would provide correlated results for bias. However, that was not the case. Our annotators indicated that humans were more perceptive of sentiment in article text than topic distribution, which suggests that our classifier provides a different perspective on a text’s bias.
