The country is gradually developing the capacity of its state institutions and civil society to address the political and social consequences of Russian aggression. • Russia’s three main levers of influence in Ukraine include the ongoing armed conflict, corruption, and the poor quality of the political sphere. The Kremlin seeks to exploit these vulnerabilities to promote polarization and encourage a clash between Ukraine’s citizens and its governing elite by taking military action, manipulating the corruption narrative, supporting pro-Russia parties, and fuelling religious tensions through the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC). • The ramifications of the military operation in Donbas reverberate strongly across the country and domestic politics. The most prominent spillover effects include the circulation of firearms and the weakened capacity of authorities to reintegrate internally displaced people (IDPs) and war veterans. • With no clear way to end the armed conflict, there is a growing risk of societal polarization. This could have negative consequences for any prospective peace agreement.

  • Appendices I
    Appendices I. Archival Sources Archival research for this monograph was conducted in Lviv, the former capital of Galicia, in 1983. To orient myself in the rich archival holdings of this city, I benefitted from the unpublished manuscript of Patricia K. Grimsted's forthcoming guide to Soviet Ukrainian archives and manuscript repositories' as well as from a number of published works.' Plans to use archives in Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk were frustrated, as was the plan to use the manuscript collection of the Institute of Literature of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR (in Kiev). Work in the Austrian archives in 1982 did not uncover sources of direct relevance to the subject of this monograph, but the Viennese archives remain an important and little-explored repository of historical documentation on Galician history. The richest collection of unpublished sources on the history of Galicia during the Austrian period is located in the Central State Historical Archives of the Ukrainian SSR in Lviv (U Tsentrainyi derzhavnyi istorychnyi arkhiv URSR u rn. Lvovi; abbre- viated as TsDIAL). The Central Archives have inherited the papers of various Galician government institutions and major civic organizations. Unfortunately, there is no published guide to these archives, although a number of articles describe aspects of their holdings.' The papers of the Presidium of the Galician Viceroy's Office (U Haiytske narnisnytstvo, rn. Lviv. Prezydiia) are contained in TsDIAL, fond 146, opysy 4-8 (and presumably others). Particularly valuable for this study were documents dealing with the publication and confiscation of political brochures and periodicals, including , Patricia K.

The Genus Leiopus Audinet-Serville, 1835 in Western Ukraine and the invading of mediterranean-pontic species Leiopus femoratus Fairmaire 1859 (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Acanthocinini).- Andrew M. Zamoroka1, 2 And Yaroslav I. Kapelyukh3.- Here we present the results of the Leiopus distribution study conducted in Western Ukraine. We identified three Leiopus species, including Leiopus nebulosus (Linnaeus 1758), Leiopus linnei Wallin, Nylander & Kvamme, 2009, and Leiopus femoratus Fairmaire 1859. The L. femoratus species was recorded in Western Ukraine for the first time. Also, we found that L. femoratus was widely distributed throughout the main physiographic regions of Western Ukraine, including Podillya Eminence, Pre-Carpathian Lowland, Carpathian Mountains, and Pannonian (Trans-Carpathian) Lowland. It can be suggested that this species expands its distribution northward due to the Global Warming events. Additionally, the recently described L. linnei was also identified in this study. This species is widely distributed in Western Ukraine, and it is more common than its sibling species L. nebulosus. The latter represents an important finding, since the previous studies identified L. nebulosus as the only species present in this region. Finally, the key to identification of Leiopus taxa in Ukraine is given. Key words: Cerambycidae, Leiopus, Leiopus nebulosus, Leiopus linnei, Leiopus femoratus, Western Ukraine Address: 1.

  • Activity Report 2017-2018
    Auschwitz Jewish Center ACTIVITY REPORT 2017-2018 Dear Friends, In the past two years we continued our flagship anti-discrimination programs which put the Auschwitz Jewish Center at the forefront of Holocaust and Human Rights organizations in Poland. The global rise of xenophobia has mobilized us to further develop our educational initiatives that explore the sources of hatred and provide tools to stand up to intolerance. It seems now, more obvious than ever, that substantiated knowledge about historical facts, even as extreme as Auschwitz and the Holocaust, does not serve as a vaccine against prejudice such as antisemitism, racism or homophobia. One needs to get deeper into the roots of evil, that is, the psychological mechanisms of perception of people different from us. Only with such knowledge we may be able to become immune to political exploitation of our own fears. In addition to educating the public, the AJC continues to preserve the memory of the Jewish community in Oświęcim, which had been an essential part of the town’s life until the Holocaust. The history of Oshpitzin is now presented on the Google Arts & Culture platform thus reaching millions of viewers worldwide. The new version of our mobile app Oshpitzin is an amazingly innovative way to promote the unique and little known local heritage both in the Jewish Museum and in the town itself. Although the newly published guidebook to the Jewish cemetery in Oświęcim is traditional in its form,it presents the historical site from a different perspective, including a glimpse into its nature and biodiversity. Our most recent project, the commemoration of the Great Synagogue in Oświęcim, to be unveiled in 2019 as the Memorial Park, is yet another example of formative remembrance and education.
