They generated a considerable degree of excitement and con- troversy, and set in motion a new creative current in the Ukrainian community. Still, the printed word is a relatively passive medium com- pared to the moving image. Thus, the 1978 advent of such films as Teach Me To Dance and 1927, both recently screened on national television, can be seen only as another major advance. Both films are gems, and each has its particular appeal — Teach Me To Dance to the heart and 1927 to the mind. The former perhaps has met with a more favourable response due to its simplicity, charm, and warmth. The latter piece, a darker, more brooding piece, has met with criticism for its severity and even its authenticity. A frequently made comment about it has been "was it actually realistic?" ivan Lypa (Kenneth Pogue) painfully remembers an embarrassing incident which helps {"Cny virno prydstavaly"!)

  • 1 Theories of Nationalism and the Soviet Ukrainian Context
    1 Theories of Nationalism and the Soviet Ukrainian Context INTRODUCTION On 24 August 1991 the Ukrainian parliament, or Supreme Council, declared national independence, their action subsequently being confirmed by 90.3 per cent of the population in a referendum on 1 December 1990. The central task of any contemporary political history of Ukraine must be to try to explain how this occurred. This opening chapter seeks to place Ukrainian nationalism in a theoretical context, without, however, arguing that Ukraine's entire recent history can or should be retrospectively analysed as a necessary development towards the nationalism of today. As Ukraine, in common with the other constituent parts of the former Soviet Union, has recently experienced a self-styled national 'revival', the main theoretical question is whether it has anything in common with the great European or colonial revivals of the last two centuries. The literature on such revivals is enormous.1 There are very many potential theoretical explanations as to why national movements develop, although not all have been specifically applied to the con­ temporary Soviet context, and still fewer to Ukraine itself. As recent works by Alexander Motyl, Lubomyr Hajda and Mark Beissinger have noted, Sovietology's coverage of nationality problems in the USSR has often been lacking in theoretical perspective, or has failed to make its perspective sufficiently clear.2 Even when political science approaches to Soviet studies became more common after the decline of the 'totalitarianism' paradigm in the 1960s, they rarely paid com­ mensurate attention to the national question.3 This chapter will, however, consider the work of those authors who have looked at the recent development of nationalism in the Soviet Union and Ukraine in a theoretical context.

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.

  • The Study of the Holodomor and Ukrainian Historiography
    Towards a Decentred History: The Study of the Holodomor and Ukrainian Historiography Olga Andriewsky Trent University Abstract: This article reviews research on the Holodomor By historians of Ukraine since the late 1980s. It examines the dominant trends in historiography, the major findings, and the current state of the field. The field itself, it argues, has grown consideraBly and there now exists a critical Body of scholarship on the suBject. For the past two decades, this scholarship has largely Been dominated By the deBate about whether the Holodomor constitutes genocide. Much of the focus has Been on illuminating the policies, methods, and intentions of the Soviet leadership and there have Been notable advances in these areas of research. Social history on this topic, on the other hand, remains largely underdeveloped. Some historians of Ukraine have Begun to study the Holodomor “from Below” and to explore the larger social and cultural consequences of de-kulakization, collectivization, and the Terror- Famine. This approach is crucial, the author suggests, to understanding the exceptional nature of the era. In terms of patterns of migration, family structure, religious practices, social identity, status and ranking, and attitudes towards power, authority, and political participation, the Holodomor Era fundamentally changed the way Ukrainians lived. In this respect, it represents a turning point, as momentous as perhaps any in Ukrainian history. Keywords: Famine, Ukrainian historiography, Genocide, Stalin ong before scholars in the Soviet Union and the West turned their L attention to the suBject of the Famine of 1932–33 in Ukraine, there was an audience anxious for the story to Be told.
