    Stereotypes in Ukrainian Society Related to Internally Displaced Persons from Donbass

    DOI : 10.14746/pp.2019.24.3.8 Oksana VOYTYUK University in Bialystok ORCID ID: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6452-2893 Stereotypes in Ukrainian Society Related to Internally Displaced Persons from Donbass Abstract: Stereotypes have always existed in Ukrainian society. The main reason for their occurrence as a rule, was the differences in the historical development of certain regions. With the influence of time, some stereotypes disappeared, but others appeared in their place. The war in the Donbass, has led to the emergence of new stereotypes, which began to firmly take root in the minds of people. Basically, these stereotypes relate to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from the Donbass and have a negative connotation. The main disseminators of stereotypes are public figures, community activists and the me- dia. The purpose of the article is to analyze the most widespread stereotypes in some regions of Ukraine not covered by the conflict and to find out the reasons for their occurrence. Key words: stereotypes, Internally Displaces Persons (IDPs), Donbass, Ukraine Introduction ne of the most recognizable contemporary phrases in Ukrainian, introduced to the Olanguage four years ago, is Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs). This phrase stands for the people who fled from occupied Crimea and from war-torn Donbass. The events of 2014 resulted in increasing intolerant attitudes towards IDPs, particularly these coming from Donbass. Intensified population inflow from the occupied regions at war contrib- uted to a numerous stereotypes being formed. Lots of these stereotypes had been present within Ukrainian society for years, deeply enrooted in the society, related to historical events.

    Ukraine Scenario 1) Background A. Donetsk and Luhansk Are Rebel

    Ukraine Scenario 1) Background a. Donetsk and Luhansk are rebel-held parts of Ukraine, and have been since 2014. The regions have ethnic Russian majorities and rebelled over attempts to ban Russian as an official language and curtail trade across the Russian border. Many of the rebels advocate secession. b. Ukraine’s state power company claimed the regions were some $431 million in debt over non- payment of bills. Russia says that they will be providing power through pre-existing lines effective immediately to avoid loss of electricity to some 3 million people in the effected areas. c. The decision by the Ukrainian government to cut power to the region appears to be an attempt to put pressure on the secessionist movement, though ironically by forcing them to turn to Russia for electricity, they may further enhance the region’s link to the Russian Federation. Source: “Russia to Supply Electricity to Eastern Ukraine After Kiev Cuts Power: Ukraine Says Regions Weren't Paying Their Bills,” Jason Ditz, Posted on April 25, Anti-War.com website: https://news.antiwar.com 2) Context a. Areas in Eastern Ukraine (Donbas Region) have had power cut by pro-Ukrainian (Kiev Government) groups that control the highest capacity power generation stations in the country. These are the 4 operational nuclear power stations in western Ukraine which includes the Zaporizhia Nuclear Power Station, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe generating 6,000 MW. This leaves the Russian controlled areas with a small number of lower capacity coal generation facilities to power the Donbas region with additional power provided by Russian power plants to support the area.

    Serhii Plokhy Mapping the Great Famine One of the Most Insightful

    Serhii Plokhy Mapping the Great Famine One of the most insightful and moving eyewitness accounts of the Holodomor, or the Great Ukrainian Famine of 1932–33, was written by Oleksandra Radchenko, a teacher in the Kharkiv region of Ukraine. In her diary, which was confiscated by Stalin’s secret police and landed the author in the Gulag for ten long years, the 36-year-old teacher recorded not only what she saw around her but also what she thought about the tragedy unfolding before her eyes. “I am so afraid of hunger; I’m afraid for the children,” wrote Radchenko, who had three young daughters, in February 1932. “May God protect us and have mercy on us. It would not be so offensive if it were due to a bad harvest, but they have taken away the grain and created an artificial famine.” That year she wrote about the starvation and suffering of her neighbors and acquaintances but recorded no deaths from hunger. It all changed in January 1933, when she encountered the first corpse of a famine victim on the road leading to her home. By the spring of 1933, she was regularly reporting mass deaths from starvation. “People are dying,” wrote Radchenko in her entry for May 16, 1933, “…they say that whole villages have died in southern Ukraine.”1 Was Radchenko’s story unique? Did people all over Ukraine indeed suffer from starvation in 1932 and then start dying en masse in 1933? Which areas of Ukraine were most affected? Was there a north-south divide, as the diary suggests, and, if so, did people suffer (and die) more in the south than in the north? Were there more deaths in the villages than in towns and cities? Were small towns affected? Did ethnicity matter? These are the core questions that Mapa, the Harvard Ukrainian Research Institute’s Digital Map of Ukraine Project is attempting to answer by developing a Geographic Information System (GIS)-based Digital Atlas of the Holodomor.

The project has been sponsored by the Kowalsky Program for the Study of Eastern Ukraine at the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies (CIUS), University of Alberta, the Shevchenko Scientific Society of America, and the Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies at the University of Toronto. The renowned historian of the Hetmanate, former director of CIUS, and director of the Kowalsky Program, Professor Zenon Kohut, heads this undertaking. The late poetess Volodymyra Wasylyszyn and her husband, the artist Roman Wasylyszyn of Philadelphia, have been generous patrons of the historical and archaeological research in Baturyn. The Baturyn Canada-Ukraine archaeological expedition is based at the National University of Chernihiv. From 1669 to 1708 Baturyn was the capital of the Cossack state, attaining its greatest development during the rule of the distinguished Hetman Ivan Mazepa (1687–1709). In alliance with Sweden, Mazepa led a revolt seeking to liberate central Ukraine from increasing domination by Moscow. In 1708 Tsar Peter I retaliated by razing Baturyn to the ground. Russian troops annihilated the Cossack garrison and the town’s civilian population (a total of eleven to fourteen thousand people) in order to suppress the rebellion with a ruthless display of terror.

    Contemporary Flags of the Ukrainian Regions: Old Traditions and New Designs

    Contemporary flags of the Ukrainian regions: Old traditions and new designs Andriy Grechylo Abstract Ukraine consists of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea and 24 oblasts (regions or provinces). The new law on local self-governments, adopted by the Verkhovna Rada (Parliament) of Ukraine in 1997, allowed local authorities to confirm the coats of arms, flags, and other symbols of oblasts, rayons (districts), cities, towns, and villages. Over the last six years, all oblasts have adopted their own symbols. Most of them have already adopted regional flags. Many of these flags have old historical signs and colours (Volyn, Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, etc.), but some oblasts have chosen new designs (Donetsk, Cherkasy, Kherson, and others). Ukraine is divided into 25 administrative territories — 24 oblasts (provinces or re- gions) and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. Two cities, Kyiv and Sevastopol, have a special, national status. The oblast borders have remained unchanged since 1959, when Drohobych oblast was joined to the Lviv oblast (Fig. 1). After the disintegration of the Ruthenian Kingdom (Galician-Volynian State) in the middle of the 14th c., the Ukrainian lands were divided among various neighbour- ing countries. During this time the arms of separate administrative territories were used. When Ukraine was absorbed into the USSR, none of the oblasts possessed their own arms or flag. Only after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the declaration of Ukrainian independence did a process of the formation of symbols of administrative territories begin. The first regional coat of arms was ratified for the Transcarpathian (Zakarpattya) oblast in December 1990. In 1992 the symbols of Crimea, which received the status of an autonomous republic, were adopted.

    GeoTerrace-2020-036 Development of GIS for assessment of ecological stability of land V. Zatserkovnyi, *P. Trofymenko, A. Amelyanets, N. Trofimenko (Taras Shevchenko Kyiv National University), V. Mykytyuk, T. Kotkova (Polissya National University) SUMMARY The article provides a comprehensive assessment of the ecological status of the territory of Chernihiv region in relation to the main types of land, characterized by varying degrees of anthropogenic load. The ecological stability of the territory was determined and the anthropogenic load of the territory was assessed. The level of plowing and agricultural development of the territory was established. It is established that the Chernihiv region is characterized by intensive use of land in agriculture. The share of arable land in the structure of agricultural land for the period from 2000 to 2016 increased by 1.2%, which led to an increase in plowed land to 44.5%. The magnitude of the ecological stability coefficient of the territory (0.48) of the Chernihiv region indicates that the territory of the region as a whole is ecologically unstable and unstable. GeoTerrace-2020 07-09 December 2020, Lviv, Ukraine Introduction It is known that the following characteristics are used to determine the ecological condition of the territory: the ratio of land by species and categories, the degree of anthropogenic transformation of natural landscapes, the load of ecological and economic condition. To analyze the structure of land use can be carried out on the basis of land cadastre units, taking into account expert scores of individual land plots. In view of the above, conducting an assessment of the ecological and economic balance of the territory by the degree of load on the territory of the region is an important scientific problem.
