Date Signature 3 Zbigniew Wojnowski Abstract This thesis explores the repercussions of the establishment of Soviet hegemony in Eastern Europe in the USSR itself, especially Ukraine. In order to trace the changing character and claims of national and supra-national identities in the different regions of Ukraine, I identify various „official‟ contexts in which Soviet citizens discussed and observed developments in the satellite states. I argue that Soviet portrayals of Eastern Europe were inconsistent and even contradictory, shaped as they were by complex interactions between party officials in Moscow, Kyiv, and the provinces. From the Hungarian uprising in 1956 to the Solidarity crisis in the early 1980s, CPSU leaders perceived ethnic diversity as a threat to Soviet stability. They sponsored various images of the people‟s democracies to promote Soviet patriotism, which they mobilised to bridge or even obliterate ethnic divisions in the USSR. Yet they never agreed upon a common definition of the Soviet „patriot‟, outlining various roles which workers, non-Russian intellectuals, and west Ukrainians would play in the unified „Soviet‟ community. Influenced by events in the people‟s democracies, they variously framed „Soviet‟ identity in ethnically exclusive East Slavic terms or in the rhetoric of „working class solidarity‟. My thesis demonstrates that the „diffusion‟ of ideas across borders, alongside modernisation and social mobilisation, was a crucial factor which contributed towards the rise of Soviet patriotism in Ukraine. Through contrasting a homogeneous „Soviet nation‟ to other peoples of Eastern Europe, party leaders inadvertently encouraged Soviet Jews, Poles, Hungarians, and Ukrainians to protect their linguistic and cultural interests more vigorously. However, with „official Ukrainianness‟ increasingly confined to the sphere of low- culture, most residents of the republic downplayed their ethnic identities and identified themselves as „Soviet‟. Thus, they sought to ease access to information and obtain material benefits from the state. 4 Zbigniew Wojnowski Table of Contents Abstract……………………………………………………………………………….3 Acknowledgments……………………………………………………………………5 Note on Spelling and Transliteration…………………………………………………6 List of Abbreviations…………………………………………………………………7 Introduction………………………………..…………………………………………8 Chapter One.

My supervisor, Susan Morrissey, has brought out the best in me. She has provided detailed and insightful feedback, given me the confidence to defend my point of view, and helped me to keep my head above water as I was drowning in the sea of archival documents. Andrew Wilson, Polly Jones, Geoffrey Hosking, Richard Butterwick, Rory Finnin, Kristin Roth-Ey, Volodymyr Dmytruk, Volodymyr Kulyk, and Natalia Rubliova have commented on my work at different stages, inspiring me to delve deeper into the intricacies of Soviet and Ukrainian history. I have also learnt a great deal from other postgraduate students at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies and colleagues I met during conferences and research trips. My friends and relatives in the UK, Poland, Ukraine, Russia and Canada have kept me sane during the last four years (here I should also thank the Lord John Russell). In particular, I would like to mention my housemates Claire Shaw, Anna Prymakova, Dragana Obradovic, Alex Nice and Digby Levitt who have patiently put up with my rambling on about Soviet Ukraine. I would further like to express gratitude to my undergraduate students who, in asking insightful questions and showing enthusiasm for the subject, have not let me lose sight of the broader problems in East European history. Library and archive staff at SSEES, the British Library, RGANI, GARF, TsDAHO, DAKO, DALO, DAOO and SWPW have been very helpful. I am especially grateful to Liudmila Ivanovna Stepanich who told many a fascinating story over lunch in the RGANI canteen. I would also like to thank the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the School of Slavonic and East European Studies which have provided funding for this project. Last but not least, I would like to express heartfelt thanks to my parents and sister who have always been supportive and encouraging. 6 Zbigniew Wojnowski Note on Spelling and Transliteration I use the Library of Congress transliteration system for Russian and Ukrainian. Czech, Hungarian, Polish and Slovak terms have been anglicised to exclude diacritics. For the sake of consistency, all place names in Ukraine are given in the Ukrainian version. They therefore differ from some well-established forms which the English reader may be accustomed to: I have, for example, chosen to write Kyiv, L‟viv and Odesa rather than Kiev, L‟vov and Odessa. Wherever the sources allow me to ascertain that a particular individual lived in Soviet Ukraine, I cite names, patronymics and surnames in the Ukrainian form. I thus refer to Volodymyr Shcherbyts‟kyi rather than Vladimir Shcherbitskii. In ambiguous cases, such as the member of the CPU Central Committee in Kyiv Mykola Pidhornyi who then became better known as Nikolai Podgornyi after moving to the CPSU Central Committee in Moscow, I provide both versions. 7 Zbigniew Wojnowski List of Abbreviations CDSP – Current Digest of the Soviet Press CPC – Communist Party of Czechoslovakia CPSU – Communist Party of the Soviet Union CPU – Communist Party of Ukraine CPWU – Communist Party of Western Ukraine DAKO – Derzhavnyi arkhiv Kyivs‟koi oblasti (State Archive of Kyiv Oblast) DALO – Derzhavnyi arkhiv L‟vivs‟koi oblasti (State Archive of L‟viv Oblast) DAOO – Derzhavnyi arkhiv Odes‟koi oblasti (State Archive of Odesa Oblast) DSUP – Digest of the Soviet Ukrainian Press GARF – Gosudarstvennyi arkhiv Rossiiskoi Federatsii (State Archive of the Russian Federation) KhTS – Khronika tekushchikh sobytii (Chronicle of Current Events) MS – Materialy samizdata (Samizdat Materials) PUWP – Polish United Workers‟ Party RGANI – Rossiiskii gosudarstvennyi arkhiv noveishei istorii (Russian State Archive of Contemporary History) SDS – Sobranie dokumentov samizdata (Collection of Samizdat Documents) SWPW – Stowarzyszenie wspolpracy Polska-Wschod (Union for Cooperation between Poland and the East) TsDAHO – Tsentral‟nyi derzhavnyi arkhiv hromads'kykh ob‟‟ednan‟ Ukrainy (Central State Archive of Social Organisations of Ukraine) 8 Introduction The establishment of Soviet hegemony in Eastern Europe had far-reaching and unexpected consequences in the USSR itself, especially the western borderlands. Between the mid-1950s and the mid-1980s, as the people‟s democracies diverged from the Soviet model and yet remained close „socialist‟ allies of the USSR, they provided a testing ground for Soviet policies and ideas, as well as an example of socio-political innovation which, as Roman Szporluk puts it, „subverted the position of the Soviet Union as the one prototype of the socialist future of mankind‟.1 In this way, the „outer empire‟ inspired diverse attitudes towards the Soviet regime among the population of the USSR and, more broadly, gave rise to different notions of what it meant to be Soviet. Eastern Europe helped to imbue the concept of Sovietness with undertones of power and international prestige. As early as the 1940s, the Soviet media began to claim that the people‟s democracies were grateful to their Soviet „liberators‟, with foreign workers admiring the Soviet social system and Stalin.2 After the mid-1950s, the rising mass media coverage of the socialist camp, the emerging ideology and practices of international travel and the celebration of particular historical anniversaries fostered a widespread sense of Soviet superiority. Official narratives stressed the importance of the „Soviet people‟ in guiding Eastern Europe on the path of progress, protecting the satellite states from „west German revanchism‟ and „American imperialism‟, as well as rebuking „anti-Soviet‟ opinions and attitudes which arose in the outer empire. They thus depicted the countries of the Warsaw Pact as reliant on the USSR for ideological guidance, economic help and military security. The authorities implied that the USSR was more powerful, stable and advanced than its junior partners from the socialist camp. At the same time, however, events and developments in the outer empire undermined the image of

  • Nationalism, Internationalism and Chinese Foreign Policy CHEN ZHIMIN*
    Journal of Contemporary China (2005), 14(42), February, 35–53 Nationalism, Internationalism and Chinese Foreign Policy CHEN ZHIMIN* This article examines the role of nationalism in shaping Chinese foreign policy in the history of contemporary China over the last 100 years. Nationalism is used here as an analytical term, rather than in the usual popular pejorative sense. By tracing the various expressions of contemporary Chinese nationalism, this article argues that nationalism is one of the key enduring driving forces which have shaped Chinese foreign policy over the period; as China increasingly integrates herself into this globalized and interdependent world and Chinese confidence grows, the current expression of Chinese nationalism is taking a more positive form, which incorporates an expanding component of internationalism. In recent years, nationalism has been one of the key focuses in the study of China’s foreign policy. In the 1990s, several Chinese writers started to invoke the concept of nationalism, both in their study of Chinese foreign policy and in their prescriptions for the Chinese foreign policy. Likewise, in English-language scholarship the study of Chinese nationalism largely sets the parameters of the debate about the future of Chinese foreign policy and the world’s response to a rising China. An overarching theme of this Western discourse is a gloomy concern with the worrisome nature of recent expressions of Chinese nationalism. Samuel P. Huntington was famously concerned about China’s intention ‘to bring to an end the

THE ETHNOMETHODOLOGICAL APPROACH ERNEST SZUM, RYSZARD CIEŒLIÑSKI The Josef Pilsudski University of Physical Education in Warsaw, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport in Bia³a Podlaska, Department of Pedagogics Mailing address: Ryszard Cieœliñski, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport in Bia³a Podlaska, Department of Pedagogics, 2 Akademicka Street, 21-500 Bia³a Podlaska, tel.: + 48 83 3428776, fax: +48 83 3428800, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract This article presents the Lemkos games and fun as popular forms of physical culture of the Lemko community living in former areas of south-eastern Poland. It presents them as part of the intangible culture of the vanishing ethnic group. The traditional elements of physical culture of the Lemko community, especially fun and games have been presented on the basis of the general characteristics of this ethnic group, and the entire history of the presence of the Lemkos in Poland. Folk fun and games, as a form of physical activity are presented in the broad sense of physical and cultural system and the Lemko community located within the cultural system. The need for such a study is due to the fact that there are no other ethnological or cultural anthropology studies on physical culture of this ethnic group. Key words: Lemkos, physical culture, fun and games, religious rites, social rituals, leisure sociology, ethnology, cultural anthropology Introduction During the 2011 National Census the Lemko nationality was declared by 10,000 people, compared with the 38.5 million In European culture, traditional games and activities of folk population of Poland, including half of the respondents sur- nature, as well as dances and other forms of physical activity are veyed declaring it as the only nationality, 2,000 people indi- an important component of any national culture [1].

  • Empire and English Nationalismn
    Nations and Nationalism 12 (1), 2006, 1–13. r ASEN 2006 Empire and English nationalismn KRISHAN KUMAR Department of Sociology, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, USA Empire and nation: foes or friends? It is more than pious tribute to the great scholar whom we commemorate today that makes me begin with Ernest Gellner. For Gellner’s influential thinking on nationalism, and specifically of its modernity, is central to the question I wish to consider, the relation between nation and empire, and between imperial and national identity. For Gellner, as for many other commentators, nation and empire were and are antithetical. The great empires of the past belonged to the species of the ‘agro-literate’ society, whose central fact is that ‘almost everything in it militates against the definition of political units in terms of cultural bound- aries’ (Gellner 1983: 11; see also Gellner 1998: 14–24). Power and culture go their separate ways. The political form of empire encloses a vastly differ- entiated and internally hierarchical society in which the cosmopolitan culture of the rulers differs sharply from the myriad local cultures of the subordinate strata. Modern empires, such as the Soviet empire, continue this pattern of disjuncture between the dominant culture of the elites and the national or ethnic cultures of the constituent parts. Nationalism, argues Gellner, closes the gap. It insists that the only legitimate political unit is one in which rulers and ruled share the same culture. Its ideal is one state, one culture. Or, to put it another way, its ideal is the national or the ‘nation-state’, since it conceives of the nation essentially in terms of a shared culture linking all members.

  • Educational Concepts of Internationalism and Multiculturalism: Historical and Pedagogical Aspect
    SCIENTIFIC JOURNAL OF POLONIA UNIVERSITY 39 (2020) 2 EDUCATIONAL CONCEPTS OF INTERNATIONALISM AND MULTICULTURALISM: HISTORICAL AND PEDAGOGICAL ASPECT Lyudmyla Kruhlenko Senior Lector, Kryvyi Rih National University, Ukraine e-mail: [email protected], orcid.org/ 0000-0002-0596-6926 Summary The article is devoted to highlighting the origins of the idea of multiculturalism in the Ukrainian educational environment. The author states the relevance of the problem of multiculturalism for the Ukrainian education system, defines the range of the most discussed scientific problems and states the limited scope of work where the problem of multiculturalism was considered from a historical and pedagogical perspective. In paper the author states the presence of this educational trend in the middle of the twentieth century, which has created certain preconditions for the modern implementation of the concept of multicultural education. The article considers educational internationalism as a dual concept, which, on the one hand, promoted fraternity, commonwealth and mutual respect, and on the other hand, irreconcilability towards representatives of other (non-socialist) political views. Therefore, the author is convinced that it is impossible to identify the ideas of internationalism and multiculturalism in education. International education laid the foundations for the creation of a certain social community on the territory of the USSR, however, both external and internal problems associated with the existence of various nations/ethnic groups were solved exclusively on a class (and therefore irreconcilable) basis. On the other hand, the educational concept of multiculturalism deprives the educational discourse of any enmity, opposition of some groups to others, struggle with each other, instead of promoting the ideas of social tolerance, civic values, mutual respect and cooperation.

  • Incommensurate Russia
    perry anderson INCOMMENSURATE RUSSIA t will soon be a quarter of a century since Russia left com­ munism behind. Its present ruler has been in power for fifteen years, and by the end of his current term in office will have all but equalled the tenure of Brezhnev. From early on, Western Iopinion of his regime divided sharply. That under Putin—after a period of widespread misery and dislocation, culminating in near state bankruptcy—the country had returned to economic growth and political stability, was evident by the end of his first term; so too the popularity he enjoyed because of these. But beyond such bare data, there was no consensus. For one camp, increasingly vocal as time went on, the pivots of Putin’s system of power were corruption and repres­ sion: a neo­authoritarian state fund amentally inimical to the West, with a wrapping of legal proprieties around a ramshackle pyramid of klep­ tocracy and thuggery. This view prevailed principally among reporters, though it was not confined to them: a representative sample could be found inEconomist editor Edward Lucas’s The New Cold War (2009), Guardian journalist Luke Harding’s Mafia State (2012), Standpoint contributor Ben Judah’s Fragile Empire (2013), but expressed no less pungently by a jurist like Stephen Holmes. For Lucas, Putin, having seized power with a ‘cynical putsch’, and maintained it with the ‘methods of terrorists and gang­ sters’, had ‘cast a dark shadow over the eastern half of the continent’. For Harding, under Putin’s tutelage, ‘Russia has become bullying, violent, cruel and—above all—inhuman’.
