  • UKRAINE the Constitution and Other Laws and Policies Protect Religious
    UKRAINE The constitution and other laws and policies protect religious freedom and, in practice, the government generally enforced these protections. The government generally respected religious freedom in law and in practice. There was no change in the status of respect for religious freedom by the government during the reporting period. Local officials at times took sides in disputes between religious organizations, and property restitution problems remained; however, the government continued to facilitate the return of some communal properties. There were reports of societal abuses and discrimination based on religious affiliation, belief, or practice. These included cases of anti-Semitism and anti- Muslim discrimination as well as discrimination against different Christian denominations in different parts of the country and vandalism of religious property. Various religious organizations continued their work to draw the government's attention to their issues, resolve differences between various denominations, and discuss relevant legislation. The U.S. government discusses religious freedom with the government as part of its overall policy to promote human rights. U.S. embassy representatives raised these concerns with government officials and promoted ethnic and religious tolerance through public outreach events. Section I. Religious Demography The country has an area of 233,000 square miles and a population of 45.4 million. The government estimates that there are 33,000 religious organizations representing 55 denominations in the country. According to official government sources, Orthodox Christian organizations make up 52 percent of the country's religious groups. The Ukrainian Orthodox Church Moscow Patriarchate (abbreviated as UOC-MP) is the largest group, with significant presence in all regions of the country except for the Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, and Ternopil oblasts (regions).

  • Regarding the Violation of Rights of Ukrainian Orthodox Church Faithful
    Regarding the violation of rights of Ukrainian Orthodox Church faithful My dear fellow Conference participants ! I represent the largest religious organization in Ukraine - the Ukrainian Orthodox Church, which has over 12,700 church communities, in total, that are evenly distributed across the entire country. This includes the territories of the Crimea and the Donbass. In fact,we have 5 dioceses, 1,100 parishes, more than 1,000 priests and 300 monks, in addition to hundreds of thousands of faithful parishioners in the Donbass region. Since the beginning of the year 2014, the UOC has been the target of numerous and frequent hostile acts, that can most accurately be described as discriminatory. These acts are in connection to the inter- religious and political conflicts within my country. But since the goal of this meeting is not a review of interfaith or political conflicts but , instead, violations of believers' rights and discrimination, I would like to provide you with some concrete facts with regards to such discrimination that have been perpetrated against my Church. On the twenty eighth(28th) of January, 2015, deputies of the Kyiv City Council adopted a decision which provided benefits to religious organizations of Kiev in the form of exemptions from real estate tax. The only exception were the religious communities of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. This clearly unconstitutional and discriminatory decision was nevertheless overturned by decision of the District Administrative Court of Kyiv on the eighteenth(18th) of June,2015. In its ruling, the court noted: "that the principle of non-discrimination, impartiality and equal treatment of all organizations, including religious, in particular the prevention of circumstances that gives rise to less favorable conditions or provisions compared with other persons and / or groups must be applied and to the regulatory acts of local self-government.

  • Revision Lists, Kremenets District
    How do I find my great-grandfather’s ancestral town? Part 11 – Putting it all together: Reaching back to the 1700s Dr. Ronald D. Doctor 2 April 2010 Last month, I showed you how I used vital records from the Russian Empire to get information about my 1 st and 2 nd greatgrandfathers, Duvid and Meshulam Vurer, both from Yampol, Ukraine, as well as another greatgrandfather, Meir Volf Korinfeld from Poritsk, Ukraine. The vital records microfilms are available from the Mormon Family History Library. This month we’ll dig deeper into Mormon microfilms. We’ll see how information I found in Russian censuses (Revizskie Skazki, or Revision Lists) took me back to my 6 th greatgrandfather, Aharon Vurer of Yampol, who was born sometime before the mid-1730s. In the 1700s and 1800s most European nations conducted periodic censuses of their populations. They used these censuses to levy taxes and to identify young men for military conscription. The first Russian census in the Kremenets District was in 1811. Subsequent censuses were conducted in 1834, 1850, 1858 and 1874, with Supplemental Lists in intervening years. With assistance from a Ukrainian researcher, I obtained records directly from the Central State Archives in Ternopil for some of my family names. The original records are voluminous. (Figure 1 shows me with a Ukrainian archivist and one small set of Revision List records.) What we found whetted my appetite for more. In 2003, the Mormons released 54 microfilms of these censuses of Kremenets District towns. The entries are organized successively by year, town name, social class, and household.

The present article exhibits the results of systematic analysis on structure and planning of fragments of urban envir- onment. The results have been obtained by looking into the prerequisites of formation of urban environment, specifically the impact of the Magdeburg Rights on urban culture. The study covers the small towns in Ukraine, which retained their historical background to a greater extent. 70 towns in Ukraine that had the Magdeburg Law have been analyzed and their historic, ar- chitectural and planning capacity investigated. The most valuable urban fragments have been classified in accordance with a number of criteria, such as the form of the plan, planning composition, etc. Based on the conducted analysis the author presents further generalized proposals for comprehensive development of historical and architectural heritage within the socio-cultural and tourism infrastructure of the Ukrainian towns. Keywords: urban development, planning structure, towns of the Magdeburg Law, typology, historical nucleus, historical and cultural heritage. Introduction Nowadays, the preservation of historical and architectural interconnections. It is clear that adaptation techniques may heritage and its adaptation to the modern urban environment vary depending on a particular town.
