(Eds) “Sociology in Ukraine. Selected Works Published During the 90s”. – Kiev: IS NASU, 2000). This was the first collection of works that introduced the results of Ukrainian sociological research to foreign readers. Almost two decades have passed since then. The number of publications in professional journals abroad has been growing with every passing year. However, they can hardly represent the full range of the Ukrainian sociological achievements. In this context, the book of works by the leading Ukrainian sociologists prepared by the Sociological Association of Ukraine ("Ukrainian Sociology in the 21st Century: Theory, Methods, Research Results") can bring Ukrainian scholars closer to the foreign reader. The main aim of this publishing effort is to provide an

JAMESTOWN’S MISSION The Jamestown Foundation’s mission is to inform and educate policymakers and the broader policy community about events and trends in those societies, which are strategically or tactically important to the United States and which frequently restrict access to such information. Utilizing indigenous and primary sources, Jamestown’s material is delivered without political bias, filter or agenda. It is often the only source of information that should be, but is not always, available through official or intelligence channels, especially with regard to Eurasia and terrorism. Origins Launched in 1984 after Jamestown’s late president and founder William Geimer’s work with Arkady Shevchenko, the highest-ranking Soviet official ever to defect when he left his position as undersecretary general of the United Nations, the Jamestown Foundation rapidly became the leading source of information about the inner workings of closed totalitarian societies.

  • Homophobic and Transphobic Violence in Contemporary Ukraine: Victims' Experiences and Patterns of Policing by Roman Leksikov A
    Homophobic and Transphobic Violence in Contemporary Ukraine: Victims’ Experiences and Patterns of Policing by Roman Leksikov A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in GENDER AND SOCIAL JUSTICE STUDIES Department of WOMEN’S AND GENDER STUDIES University of Alberta © Roman Leksikov, 2019 Abstract This study examines homophobic and transphobic violence in contemporary Ukraine: victims’ experiences and patterns of policing and prosecuting by the law enforcement and judicial systems. A range of research methods - primarily in-depth semi-formal interviews and document analysis - were employed to conduct this study. The first chapter examines the experiences of LGBTI+ victims who faced hate and bias- motivated assaults; the ways they navigate public space in; as well as their attitudes to the criminal justice system before and after experiencing the major violent attacks. Also, this part examines the patterns of the violent situations from a micro-sociological point of view. The second chapter is dedicated to the issues of policing and prosecuting of such crimes by the law enforcement officers. This part examines the first encounters of LGBTI+ people by the police officers, the language police officers use while interacting with LGBTI+ victims, existing practices of recognition and categorization of these attacks, patterns of investigation and prosecution, and related issues. A separate focus is on the effect of informalities and extra- legalities on anti-queer violence policing and the changes in policing and prosecuting practices in the context of the Police Reform (2015). The last chapter is dedicated to the issues of the judicial system’s response to violence against LGBTI+ people, and also examines collateral damages and long-time consequences of victimization and justice-seeking process.

  • Russian Politics Toward Ukraine: Was There Ever a Strategic Partnership?
    Przegląd Strategiczny 2019, Issue 12 Olga BRUSYLOVSKA DOI : 10.14746/ps.2019.1.9 Odessa Mechnikov National University https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0519-4206 Igor KOVAL Odessa Mechnikov National University https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3192-5044 Russian Politics Toward Ukraine: was there Ever a Strategic Partnership? Relations between Russia and Ukraine through the prism of strategic partnership con- cept were discussed in much research in Ukraine and abroad. Among others there was the book of Michael Emerson, Nathalie Tocci, Marius Vahl, and Nicholas Whyte where scientists thought about rivalries of the European Union and Russia on the space that the new Russian political vocabulary calls the “Near Abroad” (Emerson, Tocci, Vahl, Whyte, 2001). Ukrainian researchers first of all tried to compare the case of Russian- Ukrainian relations with other Ukrainian partners (������������Парахонський������������, 2005� Парахонсь���������- ���, Яворська, 2011� ��в�в���в, 2009� Седля�, 2005). Yulia Sedliar revealed the peculiarities of the Russian-Ukrainian strategic partnership before the Orange Revolu- tion. For her even then the unequal nature of our relations stood in the way of our com- mon politics in different spheres of cooperation. However, these works do not embrace a period after 2013 and does not give an opportunity to reduce the character of Russian politics in Ukraine throughout the period of Ukrainian independence. The nature of the development of Russian-Ukrainian relations is not clear and needs to be revealed. The hypothesis of this research was that these states never had a rich level of strategic partnership (despite the officially proclaimed status), but al- ways remained a sort of “negative strategic dependence” because of the high level of asymmetry in their relations.
