In 1897, 36 per cent of the population of the Crimea was Tatar. After the revolution, the Crimea became an autonomous republic of the Rus­ sian Soviet Federated Socialist Republic. In 1944, Tatars were deported en masse to Central Asia, charged with collaborating with the Nazis. The charges were formally withdrawn in 1967 by a decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. Tatars, however, were not allowed to return to their ancestral homeland. 5. V. M.

The 1897 census did not collect nationality data based on self­ identification of the respondents. Rather, individuals were asked to state their mother tongue. Since many Ukrainians gave Russian as their mother tongue, there were more ethnic Ukrainians than the census reveals. Throughout this chapter when reference is made to the 1897 census nationality is defined by mother tongue. 7. The right bank consists of Yolyn', Podillia and Kiev provinces.

It should be noted that the abolition of serfdom did not mean that peasants were free to travel wherever they pleased. Administrative restrictions remained, which applied to Russian peasants as well. However, in right-bank Ukraine, where the regime was anxious not to weaken the 'Russian element' there were special regulations in force making out-migration more difficult than in other regions of the Empire. 55.

  • 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.

  • POLAND-UKRAINE RELATIONS Andrzej Szeptycki
    Revista UNISCI / UNISCI Journal, Nº 40 (Enero / January 2016) POLAND-UKRAINE RELATIONS Andrzej Szeptycki 1 University of Warsaw Abstract: Poland and Ukraine are the two biggest and most populated countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Because of their size, neighbourhood and position in the region the two countries have often been compared to France and Germany. Both countries are deeply interested in their mutual cooperation. Such situation steams from five factors: direct neighbourhood, common (albeit difficult) history, attractiveness of the Polish labour market for the Ukrainians, membership of Poland in the Western structures, and last but not least, the Russian threat. Despite complimentary interests, both countries have difficulty to effectively develop their mutual relations and turn them into a real "strategic partnership". These problems are due to the internal political and economic situation in Ukraine, limits imposed by the membership of Poland in the EU, Russian policy aiming at keeping Ukraine within its zone of influence and, finally, the EU reluctance to effectively engage in Ukraine. Keywords: Poland, Ukraine, political relations, economic relations, social relations, NATO, European Union. Resumen: Polonia y Ucrania son los estados más grandes y más poblados de Europa Central y Oriental. Dado su tamaño, su vecindad y su situación en la región, los dos estados frecuentemente han sido comparados a Francia y Alemania. Ambos estados están profundamente interesados en la cooperación mutua. Esta situación deriva de cinco factores: vecindad geográfica, historia común- aunque difícil-, atracción del mercado de trabajo en Polonia para los ucranianos y la amenaza rusa. A pesar de tener intereses complementarios tienen dificultades en el desarrollo de forma efectiva de sus relaciones mutuas para llegar a conseguir una asociación estratégica real.

    TROTSKY AND THE PROBLEM OF SOVIET BUREAUCRACY by Thomas Marshall Twiss B.A., Mount Union College, 1971 M.A., University of Pittsburgh, 1972 M.S., Drexel University, 1997 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2009 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This dissertation was presented by Thomas Marshall Twiss It was defended on April 16, 2009 and approved by William Chase, Professor, Department of History Ronald H. Linden, Professor, Department of Political Science Ilya Prizel, Professor, Department of Political Science Dissertation Advisor: Jonathan Harris, Professor, Department of Political Science ii Copyright © by Thomas Marshall Twiss 2009 iii TROTSKY AND THE PROBLEM OF SOVIET BUREAUCRACY Thomas Marshall Twiss, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2009 In 1917 the Bolsheviks anticipated, on the basis of the Marxist classics, that the proletarian revolution would put an end to bureaucracy. However, soon after the revolution many within the Bolshevik Party, including Trotsky, were denouncing Soviet bureaucracy as a persistent problem. In fact, for Trotsky the problem of Soviet bureaucracy became the central political and theoretical issue that preoccupied him for the remainder of his life. This study examines the development of Leon Trotsky’s views on that subject from the first years after the Russian Revolution through the completion of his work The Revolution Betrayed in 1936. In his various writings over these years Trotsky expressed three main understandings of the nature of the problem: During the civil war and the first years of NEP he denounced inefficiency in the distribution of supplies to the Red Army and resources throughout the economy as a whole.

    Książka POJEDNANIE PRZEZ TRUDNĄ PAMIĘĆ. WOŁYŃ 1943 jest jednym z rezultatów projektu o tej samej nazwie, będącego polsko-ukraińskim działaniem zapoczątkowanym w 2012 r. Polsko-ukraińska grupa re- searcherów zbierała relacje ustne na Wołyniu, poszukując postaw ludzi szlachetnych i sprawiedliwych, szczególnie wśród Ukraińców ratujących Polaków w okresie czystek etnicznych prowadzonych przez OUN i UPA w latach 1943–1945 na Wołyniu i w Galicji oraz wśród Polaków pomagających Ukra- ińcom w czasie akcji odwetowych i wysiedleńczych. Potrzeba projektu wyrosła z wielokrot- nych rozmów o polsko-ukraińskich stosunkach oraz upamiętnieniu zbliżającej się 70. rocz- nicy wydarzeń na Wołyniu. Ze względu na wagę, jak i złożoność tematu, problematyka trudnej historii i pamięci może być interesująca dla wielu specjalistów, stąd też próba kompleksowego spojrzenia na omawiane kwestie.

  • The Ambiguities of Soviet “Piedmonts”: Soviet Borderland
    THE AMBIGUITIES OF SOVIET “PIEDMONTS”: SOVIET BORDERLAND POLICIES IN THE UKRAINIAN SSR AND THE MOLDOVAN ASSR, 1922-1934 Alexandr Voronovici A DISSERTATION in History Presented to the Faculties of the Central European University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Budapest, Hungary 2016 CEU eTD Collection Supervisor: Professor Alexei Miller ii Copyright in the text of this dissertation rests with the author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained by the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copied made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. I hereby declare that this dissertation contains no materials accepted for any other degrees and no materials previously written and/or published by another person unless otherwise noted. CEU eTD Collection iii Abstract The dissertation analyzes Soviet borderland policies in the Ukrainian SSR and the Moldovan ASSR in the 1920s and early 1930s. Adopting the situational approach, I explore the Soviet struggle for borderlands on the Western border and the role of the cross-border cultural ties in it. The dissertation argues that the negotiations, different interpretations and the interplay between actors on both sides of the Soviet Western border influenced and framed the evolution of borderland policies in the Ukrainian SSR and the Moldovan ASSR in 1920s. Although, the Soviet Union was a centralized state with a disciplined party, there was still considerable space for conflicting interpretations of Moscow's directives and the promotion of personal agenda by Soviet leaders and activists.

For centuries Central and Eastern Europe has been the scene of frequent changes of bor- ders and numerous ethnic conflicts. Contemporary ethnic diversity of this region is much smaller, however, the growing nationalisms of the various societies, mutual mistrust, and the temptation of politicians to use ethnic issues in the regional geopolitical competition pose a real threat to the sta- bility and peace in Central and Eastern Europe. The dynamic political, legal, social and economic changes which have been taking place in this part of Europe for three decades now, which overlay its clear civilization division into the Latin and the Byzantine parts and are intensified by historical animosities, must have had an impact on the situation and the perception of minorities. In contrast to Western Europe, the contemporary ethnic diversity of Central and Eastern Europe is primary the consequence of various, often centuries-old historical processes (settlement actions, voluntary and forced migrations, border changes, the political and economic expansion of particular countries), and in the ethnic structure especially dominate the indigenous groups, migrants, particularly from the outside of the European cultural circle, are of marginal importance. Moreover, national minor- ities are usually concentrated in the border regions of countries, often in close proximity to their home countries, becoming – often against their will – element of the internal and foreign policies of neighbouring countries.

  • Introduction
    Przemyslaw ZURAWSKI vel GRAJEWSKI POLISH - UKRAINIAN RELATIONS 1991-2002 Introduction Poland and Ukraine are the two largest states of Central-Eastern Europe and the nature of their relations by that very fact is a crucial one for the future of and the stability in the region. Being deprived of their independence till 1989 (Poland) or even real statehood till 1991 (Ukraine) the two neighbouring nations have a unique chance to shape their mutual relations as free peoples on an equal level both in interstate and inter individuals relations now. The way in which they deal with that task is the main topic of this paper. The subject in question will be considered in the two main dimensions: political and economic one. To create a clear and valuable image of the Polish-Ukrainian relations in the first decade of the independence of the two countries we shell start with the periodization of the entire epoch and with the list of basic treaties constituting a solid fundament for both political and economic relations between Poland and Ukraine. For the same reason a list of the main meetings and visits of high officials of both countries is included to the text just as an illustration of the intensity of mutual contacts. That is expected to supply the readers with the hard framework of the more detailed considerations presented in the further sub-chapters. The main questions to be answered in this paper are: 1. What is the place of Ukraine in the conceptual papers of Polish government? What are the principles on which the Ukrainian policy of Poland is based on and what are the strategic aims of Poland as regards Ukraine? 2.

  • The Great War and the Birth of the Communist Movement in Romania
    THE GREAT WAR AND THE BIRTH OF THE COMMUNIST MOVEMENT IN ROMANIA Gheorghe ONIŞORU Ştefan cel Mare University of Suceava E-mail: [email protected] Rezumat: Marele Război şi naşterea mişcării comuniste în România. Înfiinţarea Partidului Comunist din România în anul 1921, ca de altfel întreaga mișcare comunistă din ţara noastră, a fost puternic influenţată de evenimentele de pe plan mondial de la sfârșitul Primului Război Mondial – ne referim aici cu precădere la revoluţia bolșevică din Rusia și la răspândirea ei spre Europa. Studiul nostru își propune să analizeze maniera în care comunismul românesc a urmat modelul sovietic, mai ales că vorbim despre o ţară care nu avea tradiţie în această direcţie, iar clasa muncitoare era mult inferioară din punct de vedere numeric faţă de ţărănime. Résumé : La Grande Guerre et la naissance du mouvement communiste en Roumanie. La création du Parti communiste en Roumanie en 1921, de même que l'en- semble du mouvement communiste de notre pays, a été fortement influencée par les événements du monde depuis la fin de la Première Guerre Mondiale. Nous nous référons ici particulièrement à la révolution bolchevique en Russie et à sa propagation en Europe. Notre étude vise à analyser la façon dont le communisme roumain a suivi le modèle soviétique, d'autant plus que nous parlons d'un pays qui n'a pas de tradition dans cette direction, et la classe ouvrière était beaucoup plus faible en termes de nombre vis-à-vis les paysans. Abstract. The communist movement in Romania and the birth of the Communist Party in 1921 was a phenomenon strongly influenced by events at the end of the Great War.
