At present, Ukraine produces phosphate fertilizers at only two enterprises: Public Joint-Stock Company (PJSC) «Sumykhimprom» and PJSC «Dniprovs- kiy Plant of Chemical Fertilizer» that has a total production capacity of 1434 thousand tons 100% P2O5 in the form of complex mineral fertilizers.

All provincial regions of Ukraine were chosen for this analysis. The aim of the study was to determine trends of regional indicators during the period 2012–2015. The social compo- nent of sustainability reflects the quality of life and it is focused on preserving the stability of the social and cultural systems, in particular on reducing the number of destructive conflicts between people. The basis of our study was the method of the Human Development Index rating in 2015, conducted by the State Statistics Service of Ukraine and the Institute of Demography and Social Studies named after M.V. Pukhta, but with a reduction of performance indicators to four groups (comfortable life, prosperity, decent work, education). The results of our grouping allow for developing a number of measures to respond to current trends and adjust them depending on the situation. Areas with consistently high rates of human development dimension should extend its positive experience to other regional areas of Ukraine.

The article covers the phenomenon of rock music in the lives of young residents of the western regions of Soviet Ukraine, which differed significantly from the rest of the territory of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic and the entire USSR. The article demonstrates the peculiarities among which this music was mastered, its existence in the youth society – from fashionable dance music to the core of nonconformitsm to the Soviet system. It was reflected in the names officially and unofficially used for rock music and its performers (Big beat, vocal-instrumental ensemble, etc.), as well as in relation to official factors (from tolerance to the prohibition). Consumers of rock music did not necessarily have to be opposed to the Soviet regime. However, the active “immersion” in rock music, and the related counterculture spheres (from the late 1960s onwards, and more and more), contributed to the formation of an alternative life style, which manifested itself in particular: listening to banned radio stations, the style of clothing that was associated with rock music, space for free performance / listening to rock music and exchanging information and impressions (“tusovka”).

    How Sissi Became a Ruthenian Queen: Some Peculiarities of the Peasant Worldview Yaroslav Hrytsak The assassination of Queen Elizabeth (Sissi, 1837–98) was met with grief throughout the Habsburg lands, and Austrian-ruled Galicia was no exception.1 This is attested, inter alia, by a local Ruthenian (Ukrainian) song recorded in the Buchach region several months after the tragic event. Among its lines are the following: Вона була така добра, як та рідна мати. Як тота добра мати що нас породила, а царівна добра була, що край боронила. Скасувалa всі кайдани, вулиці тай буки, тай зазнала від ворогів тяженької муки. Hаша панна цісарівна є руського роду тай пішла ся бай купати в швaйцарськую воду. Бодай тота Швайцарія була ся розпала булa би ся цісарівна в сім краю скупала.2 The song is full of empathy for the deceased queen and could be regarded as just another example of naive peasant monarchism. What is striking here, however, is the statement that the queen shared the origins 1 See, e.g., Larry Wolff, “Dynastic Conservatism and Poetic Violence in Fin-de-Siècle Cracow: The Habsburg Matrix of Polish Modernism,” American Historical Review 106, no. 3 (June 2001): 735–64. 2 Ivan Franko, “Zrazok novozlozhenoi nar[odnoi] pisni,” Literaturno-naukovyi vistnyk 10, no. 4 (April 1900): 54. 228 Yaroslav Hrytsak of the peasants who sang the song—that she was of Ruthenian descent (ruskoho rodu). This is obvious nonsense, since Elizabeth was a Bavarian German and a Roman Catholic: in other words, nothing in her origins or status even remotely suggested any link with Ruthenian peasants in Galicia.

We also consider the influence of a conceptual lexeme on the formation of an imaginary code of the author’s language thinking. We emphasize that in Maria Matios’s prose a special panorama of a semantic and semantically symbolic field of a sin opens before a reader. Along with archetypical semas others are also activized but the conceptualization of a sin mainly turns round in the sphere of a sacred Christian world outlook. In some moments in Matios’s characters a Christian world outlook is closely connected with a ritual-magic one. We point out that connotative specification of the investigated lexeme carries unusually rich cultural and ethnic national information caused by intra- and extralingual factors. Submeanings go to the national language level, in some cases mentioned ethnically caused semantic onbuilding even dominates over a proper biblical basis.

  • On Nik. Fabrikant and His Article, EWJUS, Vol. 4, No. 2, 2017
    On Nik. Fabrikant and His Article Serhiy Bilenky University of Toronto ik[olai] Fabrikant was the pseudonym of Ivan Krevets'kyi, a well- N known Ukrainian intellectual who functioned as a historian, a bibliographer, and a civic activist in Austrian-ruled Galicia. In 1905, Krevets'kyi (under his pseudonym) published in Russian his arguably most famous polemical piece on the Russian censorship of Ukrainian literature in the Russian liberal periodical Russkaia mysl' (Russian Thought), one of the most widely circulating Moscow journals (with around 14,000 subscribers at its peak). Krevets'kyi’s “Kratkii ocherk iz istorii otnoshenii russkikh tsenzurnykh zakonov k ukrainskoi literature” (“A Brief Outline of the History of the Treatment of Ukrainian Literature by the Russian Censorship Laws”) was not an original publication but rather a revision of the author’s Ukrainian-language article “Ne bylo, net i byt' ne mozhet!” (“There Has Not Been, Is Not, and Cannot Be!”)1 published in 1904 in the prime Ukrainian journal Literaturno-naukovyi visnyk (Literary Scientific Herald), a literary and scholarly periodical founded by historian Mykhailo Hrushevs'kyi with the participation of such luminaries as Ivan Franko and Volodymyr Hnatiuk. Krevets'kyi was born on 14 October, 1883, in the village of Ivanivka (which today belongs to the Zhydachiv district of Lviv oblast) (Steblii 3-5; Fedunyshyn). Born in a teacher’s family, he went on to study in the prestigious Ukrainian academic gymnasium in Lviv, and in 1907 he graduated from Lviv University where he studied history under Hrushevs'kyi, with whom the young graduate relocated for a while in Kyiv.

This article considers the Soviet western borderlands' contribution to its demise. Turning to the western Ukrainian city of Lviv, it suggests that late Soviet politics of empire integrated Western Ukrainians into one Soviet polity. In the late phases of Khrushchev's "Thaw," the literary journal of Lviv's Writers' Union, Zhovten (October), from 1964 to 1966 became a forum that accommodated local and national interests while adhering to an all-Soviet imperial canon. The dismiss­ al of its editor, poet Rostyslav Bratun', did not completely end the journal's approach to literary expression. Writers like Bratun' remained very active in the public sphere. Drawing on studies of the Soviet Union and other empires, this article rejects binary oppositions between state and society and between imperial centers and colonial peripheries. It sees the power of imperial imagi­ nations affecting regional and national identities1 It suggests instead that un­ resolved debates over issues like literature, language, and historical memory made these borderlands' integration very problematic.
