Peasantry As the Main Military Force During Ukrainian Revolution Period 1917–19211
DOI https://doi.org/10.36059/978-966-397-138-4/88-103 PEASANTRY AS THE MAIN MILITARY FORCE DURING UKRAINIAN REVOLUTION PERIOD 1917–19211 Masnenko V. V. INTRODUCTION The modern period was the time of social transformations of the humanity. The main tendency was the demolition of traditional society in all aspects of being. Another feature was the mass character of political life (alongside with the development of parliamentary system and mass political parties). The social roles and behaviors of different social layers changed as well. The emancipation of peasantry, in its broader meaning, was one of the leading tendencies of the general process of modernization. The determining factor that accelerated this process was the emerging of mass army with the mechanism of conscription. In agrarian societies the peasantry was the main component of military service. Ukrainian peasantry in Russian empire was a latecomer to this modernization process. However, it only slowed down its emancipation and it accelerated only during the World War I and the following revolutionary events. The aim is to investigate the peculiarities of Ukrainian peasantry militarization that determined its leading role in the events of Ukrainian revolution 1917–1921, including the participation in regular armies, rebellion movement and peasantry war. 1. During the World War I The World War I was the turning point of the modernization. Millions of peasants were torn apart from their traditional agrarian lifestyle and peasant world; they lost the connection with their usual way of keeping the household. Such a drastic catastrophic event could not but substantially transform the peasant’s outlook. -

Dr. Reinhard Proksch DEAR DR
Dr. Reinhard Proksch DEAR DR. REINHARD PROKSCH! WE PROMISE TO RESPOND TO ANY QUESTIONS OR CORRECTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE, SHALL YOU PROVIDE US WITH SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE REGARDING INCORRECTNESS OF ANY INFORMATION BELOW. “YANUKOVICH.INFO” TEAM The information below aims to show that money is being laundered by the ruling elite of Ukraine not in offshore havens, but in many countries of the European Union, in particular in Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and the United Kingdom; we have all the required legislative instruments to identify and prosecute the would-be potentates of Ukraine and their assistants in EU countries for money laundering, should there be political will. We sincerely hope that after the publication of this article, both law enforcement agencies and financial monitoring authorities in the appropriate countries will collaborate in order to begin filing criminal charges of money laundering in their jurisdictions. In addition, we hope to show that in Ukraine there is a close relationship between the ruling elite, many of whom are engaged in systematic and coordinated grand political corruption and money laundering abroad. This article was written with the assistance of information published in the following websites: Ukrayinska Pravda and Nashi Groshi. There is only one expert who has succeeded in optimizing taxes and normalizing the «money laundering» system for President Viktor Yanukovych, Prime Minister Mykola Azarov, the Secretary of the National Security Council Mr. Andriy Kliuyev and his brother Deputy Chairman of the Party of Regions Serhiy Kliuyev, namely Dr. Reinhard Proksch who until recently attended to all their interests. Dr. Reinhard Proksch, who was born in Liechtenstein, is an Austrian citizen, claims that he has been an accredited attorney in New York for over twenty years, and likely a resident of the United States, as well as the owner of COMPASERVE SE — an incubator of shelf-companies in Switzerland, Germany, Austria Lichtenstein, Great Britain, the USA, and other countries. -
Pavlo Zaitsev
PAVLO ZAITSEV Translated and edited by GEORGE S.N. LUCKYJ Taras Shevchenko A LI FE PAVLO ZAITSEV Translated and edited by George S.N. Luckyj Taras Shevchenko is undoubtedly Ukraine's greatest literary genius and national hero. His extraordinary life-story is recounted in this classic work by Pavlo Zaitsev. Born in 1814, the son of a poor serf, Shevchenko succeeded in winning his freedom and became an art student in St Petersburg. In 1847 he was arrested for writing revolutionary poetry, forced into the army, and exiled to deserted outposts of the Russian empire to undergo an incredible odys sey of misery for ten years. Zaitsev's re counting of Shevchenko's ordeal is a moving portrait of a man able not only to survive extreme suffering but to transform it into poetry that articulated the aspirations of his enslaved nation. To this day Ukrainians observe a national day of mourning each year on the anniversary of Shevchenko's death. Zaitsev's biography has long been recog nized by scholars as defmitive. Originally written and typeset in the 1930s, the manuscript was confiscated fro m Zaitsev by Soviet authori- ties when they annexed Galicia in 1939. The author still had proofs, however, which he revised and published in Munich in 1955. George luckyj's translation, the first in English, now offers this indispensable biography to a new audience. CEORCE S . N. LUCKYJ is Professor Emeritus of Slavic Studies, University of Toronto. He is the author of Literary Politics in tire Soviet Ukraine and Between Gogol and Shevclre11ko, and editor of Shm:henko and the Critics. -
