  • One Ukraine Or Many? Regionalism in Ukraine and Its Political Consequences
    Nationalities Papers, Vol. 32, No. 1, March 2004 One Ukraine or Many? Regionalism in Ukraine and Its Political Consequences Lowell W. Barrington & Erik S. Herron Intra-state regional differences are a central topic in the study of European and Eurasian politics. In Ukraine, regional differences have proven to be powerful predictors of mass attitudes and political behavior. But what does the “regional factor” in Ukrainian politics represent? Is it simply the result of compositional effects, or are the regional differences more than just a sum of other demographic factors correlated with geographic divisions? When analyzing regional divisions as an explanatory variable, what are the implications of employing different regional frameworks? In this article, we demonstrate how geographic divisions in the country hold up even when others factors—such as ethnicity and language use—are con- trolled for. As part of this inquiry, we compare the results of three competing regional frameworks for Ukraine: one with two regions, one with four regions and one with eight regions. While the eight-region framework is uncommon in studies of Ukraine, the decision to examine eight regions is supported by historical, economic and demographic arguments, as well as by the results of the statistical analyses presented in this article. Scholars who have focused on fewer regions in Ukraine may have underestimated the effects of regional differences and missed interesting stories about intra-state variation in Ukrainian attitudes and voting behavior. The results of this study carry important implications not only for the study of Ukraine but also for those interested in intra-state regional divisions across Europe and Eurasia.

  • Zhytomyr, Ukraine
    126 MobiliseYourCity Global Monitor 2021 / Factsheet: Zhytomyr, Ukraine Zhytomyr, Ukraine Partner city Status of the project: completed technical assistance Basic Information Urban area: 93 km² Population: 264,300 (2018) GDP per capita: USD 3,400 Modal share: Motorized vehicles: 15% Public transport: 46% Walking: 37.8% Cycling: 1.3% Region capital city Context Several transport and mobility related challenges were identifed during the SUMP preparation process. The fleet of public transport rolling stock needs to be updated. The average age of the trolleybus is 27.5 years, the tram is 32.5 years old and the standard period of operation is 10 and 15 years, respectively. Road accidents are frequent and road markings are absent on a variety of secondary roads and alleys, where it is particularly important to replenish the markings. In terms of walking infrastructure in the city, Zhytomyr has a problem of narrow pedestrian walkways, which are common in residential areas. Most traffc lights have no sound equipment. The street lighting focuses only on roads, which leads to insuffcient lighting on the sidewalks. Support from the Partnership Technical Assistance: Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) Funded by: The German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) Implemented by GIZ through the project Integrated urban development in Ukraine.
