During a public meeting on 20 July between Reporters Without Borders and members of the Ukrainian parliament’s Committee of Enquiry into Freedom of Expression, parliamentarian Andrei Shevchenko deplored not only the increase in press freedom violations but also, and above all, the disturbing and challenging lack of reaction from the government. The data gathered by the organisation in the course of its monitoring of Ukraine confirms that there has been a significant increase in reports of press freedom violations since Viktor Yanukovych’s election as president in February.

ABSTRACT During the 1990s, Ukraine experienced a change in its political system, becoming a nominal liberal democratic with contested multiparty elections in combination with post-Soviet oligarch community. These newly established dimensions impacted two major revolutionary periods in Ukraine, dating from 1992-2004 and 2005-2014, reaching a climax of violent civil unrest during the Ukrainian Revolution of 2014. The Ukrainian Revolution, also known as the Euromaidan and Revolution of Dignity, illustrates the stages of modernization in a post-Soviet society. The Euromaidan mobilized a variety of regional and ethno-linguistic groups to demand political and economic reform. Members of oligarch clans, consisting mostly of ethnically Russian economic elites, are often appointed in regional government positions largely in the East, and hold substantial power in Ukrainian politics. My research question poses: “How did oligarchic concentration of economic and media power influence government functions such as public service delivery, and shape corruption patterns preceding the protest uprising in 2014?” In my thesis, I seek to study the impact of oligarch clans as holding centralized power, and how this system may affect Ukrainian national politics as seen under the leadership of former democratically elected, Pro-Russian president, Viktor Yanukovych, during the Ukrainian Revolution of 2014.

    Ukraine | Freedom House Page 1 of 5 Ukraine freedomhouse.org Україна Note: The scores and narrative for Ukraine do not reflect conditions in Russian-occupied Crimea, which is assessed in a separate report. Status change explanation: Ukraine’s status improved from Not Free to Partly Free due to profound changes in the media environment after the fall of President Viktor Yanukovych’s government in February, despite a rise in attacks on journalists during the Euromaidan protests of early 2014 and the subsequent conflict in eastern Ukraine. The level of government hostility and legal pressure faced by journalists decreased, as did political pressure on state-owned outlets. The media also benefited from improvements to the law on access to information and the increased independence of the broadcasting regulator. Conditions for press freedom in Ukraine were affected by tumultuous political events in 2014. During the first two months of the year, a protest movement known as Euromaidan occupied central Kyiv and withstood waves of attacks by security forces loyal to President Viktor Yanukovych, who ultimately fled the country in late February. Russian forces then occupied Crimea and actively supported separatist militants in Ukraine’s two easternmost regions, Donetsk and Luhansk. Even as fighting escalated in the east, the country held democratic elections for the presidency and parliament in May and October, respectively. These events led to an overall improvement in the media environment, although concerns remain, especially regarding the government’s handling of pro-Russian propaganda, the concentration of ownership of private outlets in the hands of a small group of wealthy businessmen, and the high levels of violence against journalists in the country, especially in the east.

Однако при рассмотрении вопросов управления украинским ме- диабизнесом нельзя обойти вниманием вопросы политического и социально- го влияния медиаиндустрии. Поэтому автор проанализировал предвыборный дискурс публикаций газеты «Факты и комментарии» накануне парламентских выборов 2002 г. и показал механизмы отражения политических приоритетов владельца медиаконцерна «StarLightMedia», в состав которого входит изда- ние. При исследовании стратегии медиапредприятия автор пришёл к выводу, что для владельца СМИ в Украине служат не столько источником прибыли, сколько инструментом лоббирования собственных интересов. «Факты и ком- ментарии» представили парламентские выборы 2002 г. как дело только поли- тиков, а не как шанс и обязанность избирателей изменить ситуацию. Циклич- ное повторение выборов на страницах газеты ослабило внимание избирателей и превратило событие в тривиальное действие «сезонного», «сериального» характера. Оппозиционные силы были представлены как нарушители обще- ственной стабильности. Таким образом, владелец медиакомпании

    ISSN 2312-8933 Studia Politologica Ucraino-Polona. 2018. Вип.8 Viktoriya Havrylyuk Marek Jachimowski Uniwersytet Śląski PRZESTRZEŃ MEDIALNA UKRAINY: POSTKOMUNISTYCZNE DOŚWIADCZENIE Viktoriya Havrylyuk, Marek Jachimowski. The media space of Ukraine: the post-communist experience. Based on a review of the extensive related literature, the changes that have taken place in the media and information space of Ukraine since Soviet times for the first twenty years of independence of that state have been shown in this article. The authors of the publication try to show the multiple conditions affecting the shaping of these spaces: from historical, social, political and economic to technological. They also indicate global phenomena that also influence the processes that shape contemporary periodic media and mediated communication of Ukraine. Key words: information space, media system, communication, television, on line media, social media. Wstęp System medialny Ukrainy w ciągu dwudziestu lat od głasnosti1 [15] do pomarańczowej rewolucji2 [74] podlegał ogromnym zmianom. Ukraina wycofała się z zamkniętego, scentralizowanego sowieckiego systemu medialnego i zaczęła rozwijać zróżnicowane, nowoczesne środowisko medialne, zintegrowane z globalnymi systemami komunikacyjnymi. Przed rokiem 1991 przestrzeń medialna Ukrainy objęta była radzieckim systemem mediów. Systemy medialne na poziomie republikańskim (Ukrainy) dysponowały mniejszymi finansami niż system ogólnozwiązkowy (ZSRR). W konsekwencji systemy republikańskich mediów nie rozwijały się technologicznie, a przez to nie zyskiwały na popularności. W sierpniu 1991 r. parlament Ukrainy ogłosił niepodległość państwa. Po przejęciu kontroli nad przestrzenią medialną/informacyjną rząd Ukrainy potwierdził prawo własności prywatnej oraz zniesienie cenzury i likwidację barier w kontaktach międzynarodowych. To sprawiło, iż nastąpił wzrost liczby mediów drukowanych, kanałów telewizyjnych, a dla dziennikarzy otworzyła się nieznana wcześniej możliwość wolności słowa.

  • Under Assault: Ukraine's News Media and the 2004 Presidential Elections
    Under Assault: Ukraine’s News Media and the 2004 Presidential Elections Jeremy Druker and Dean Cox No one should underestimate the political, social, and economic importance of the presidential election scheduled in Ukraine for October 2004. It is clear that this election offers an important opportunity for a new beginning for Ukraine, a country mired in official corruption. Yet given Ukraine’s recent history, including its last presidential and parliamentary elections, the next four months do not bode well for the independence of the country’s news media. President Leonid Kuchma (who under Ukraine’s constitution cannot run for a third term) and his allies will look to secure at all costs the victory of a chosen successor. The election of an opposition candidate could portend a sea change in the upper echelons of power and enable sorely needed reform of the political system. In the past, analysts in Ukraine and news media watchdog organizations outside this east European country have criticized Ukraine’s news media for performing poorly and failing to provide fair political and electoral information to the voting public. The financial dependency of the media and strict control of media companies by the ruling regime, local and regional administrations, and political parties have increased dramatically since President Kuchma’s 1999 reelection and intensified during the 2002 parliamentary elections, when intimidation of reporters and media outlets reached its highest point since the consolidation of Ukraine’s post-communist independence. Given the immense implications of a change in state power and the strong showing of opposition forces in recent polls, there is a danger that many news media outlets—particularly broadcast media—will outdo even their past efforts to skew the news agenda.
