One may Be proud of such achievement of the human genius; one should and one may Be proud of the achievements of one’s own nation, but it is bad when the human mind attributes to itself the power which Belongs to the supernatural. The most significant event since the creation of the world was the coming of Christ and His revelation of Divine Truth. With that began a new era in the life of the human species. The world was created By God and no human achievements, which in their essence are only perceptional in character, can match His creation. The present triumph of science and engineering can Be compared with the conquest of the oceanic expanses in the 15th century, the discovery of Both poles, or the conquest of space. The discovery of America was a great achievement for mankind in general and Europe in particular, and its consequences were of no lesser importance than the landing on the moon. But, without degrading any human achievement, one must rememBer that neither the moon, nor any other planet of the solar system could Be settled By man, for the atmospheric conditions there do not warrant it. And no matter how enthusiastic we have Become about this latest feat of human genius, we have to get Back to earthly problems, for the question of the liberation of the enslaved nations from the foreign Communist Russian yoke is still an earthly question. Therefore, we cannot turn our attention away from the basic question of our social existence, i. e., the reestablishment of a free and independent Ukrainian State. For the last twenty years we have constantly argued in our press that technological development of the world is not going hand in hand with moral and ethical progress. On the contrary, what is progressing is the Barbarization of human life, its de-humanization and de-Christianization. What a paradoxical contradiction! We are pleased that today the great British historian Arnold ToynBee is raising the same question, although from a different angle. He sees all the evil as stemming from nationalism; we see it as stemming from imperialism. What a great gap lies Between the phenomenal technological progress and human achievement and the morality of THE BASIC PROBLEM 3 the hedonists, the conquerors, the oppressors and the perpetrators of genocide! How are civilization and science flourishing, and culture and morality sinking! Today, in full view of the world and with its tacit agreement, thousands of children are starving to death in Biafra, which fought for her statehood against the modern-day African imperialists. The Irians-Papuans of New Guinea are dying By the thousands at the hands of the present-day Indonesian imperialists. And in the Russian empire? Countless thousands of fighters — sons and daughters of the subjugated people — are suffering and dying under inhuman conditions in prisons and concentration camps of the Russian tyrants. All this is taking place Before the very eyes of the civilized, but heartless world! For this reason it was much easier to land on the moon than to solve the proBlem of the liberation of the suBjugated peoples and to introduce a just order on earth. For this reason we are constantly returning to earthly problems, to our problems, so that while Being enthusiastic about the achievements of human genius in the technol­ ogical sense, we do not forget the essence: that so far the Ukrainian Truth has not been realized on earth. And this is also God’s proBlem on earth. We have often justified the uncontrollaBle race of human genius to discover the new, to follow in the footsteps of Dedalus and Icarus. This is characteristic of the human spirit, which is always searching, fighting for what is new, solving the as yet unsolved. But we hope that the extraordinary achievement of American science and en­ gineering, which is the result of research and inventiveness of whole generations of intellectuals of various nations, will not overshadow the basic proBlem of human existence — that one Billion human beings are living under tyranny, in particular 45 million Ukrainians, our brothers, sisters, parents and children are living under Russian despotism. Furthermore, the Ukrainian genius is active there as well. A Ukrainian, Kapytsia, is the father of Soviet technology in the thermo-nuclear field, and cyBernetics was founded By the Kyiv scientists. But we are lacking one thing: FREEDOM AND SOVER­ EIGNTY, the RULE of the Ukrainian people on Ukrainian soil. And this is the central proBlem of our collective existence. We would Be unfair if we failed to pay due respect to the courage and self-sacrifice of the American astronauts, who landed on the moon. But, while admiring them, the world has forgotten another kind of heroism — anonymous, without puBlicity, without the admiration of humanity, the quiet heroism and self-sacrifice of the abused and lonely heroes and heroines in the Russian prisons and concentration camps. There are two types of heroes — those who are worshipped, who have the sympathy of the whole world, the prayers and blessings of the highest religious dignitaries, who are supported in their risky undertakings By hundreds, and even thousands of 4 THE UKRAINIAN REVIEW scientists, technicians and computers, i. e., heroes who are conscious of the moral sympathy of mankind. Another type of heroes — un­ parallelled in the history of all times — are the Ukrainian women in Kinghir, who in defense of other prisoners threw themselves under the caterpillars of tanks driven By the Russian barbarians; these are the Kateryna Zarytskas, the HorBovyis, the Shukhevychs, the Kara- vanskyis, the Oliynyks; these are the lonely, the forgotten, the tortured, the martyred, the persecuted. These heroes are dying some­ where of a shot in the head, or slowly perishing in the dark jail cell or stone quarries of the tyrants — alone, without the applause of the whole world, but fanatics of the great idea of national independence, freedom, truth and justice. Yes, there are two kinds of heroes! And each of them is risking his life and to each this life is precious to the same degree. But for the former all churches and their dignitaries are imploring God’s help, while for the latter, our heroes, only their own faith, their own will­ power, their own determination to fight singlehandedly for truth and freedom must suffice, while the free world is watching in forBoding silence. Which of these has worked harder for victory of God’s truth on earth — will have to Be answered By each of us in our own hearts. How much easier is it to risk one’s life when one is conscious of all possible help from the greatest technological power on earth and the sympathy and prayers of almost the whole of mankind, but how much harder is it to Be left to one’s own faith and willpower, to Be completely lonely, to receive only the tacit compassion of one’s own subjugated nation.

  • Chapter IX: Ukrainian Musical Folklore Discography As a Preserving Factor
    Art Spiritual Dimensions of Ukrainian Diaspora: Collective Scientific Monograph DOI 10.36074/art-sdoud.2020.chapter-9 Nataliia Fedorniak UKRAINIAN MUSICAL FOLKLORE DISCOGRAPHY AS A PRESERVING FACTOR IN UKRAINIAN DIASPORA NATIONAL SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE ABSTRACT: The presented material studies one of the important forms of transmission of the musical folklore tradition of Ukrainians in the United States and Canada during the XX – the beginning of the XXI centuries – sound recording, which is a component of the national spiritual experience of emigrants. Founded in the 1920s, the recording industry has been actively developed and has become a form of preservation and promotion of the traditional musical culture of Ukrainians in North America. Sound recordings created an opportunity to determine the features of its main genres, the evolution of forms, that are typical for each historical period of Ukrainians’ sedimentation on the American continent, as well as to understand the specifics of the repertoire, instruments and styles of performance. Leading record companies in the United States have recorded authentic Ukrainian folklore reconstructed on their territory by rural musicians and choirs. Arranged folklore material is represented by choral and bandura recordings, to which are added a large number of records, cassettes, CDs of vocal-instrumental pop groups and soloists, where significantly and stylistically diversely recorded secondary Ukrainian folklore (folklorism). INTRODUCTION. The social and political situation in Ukraine (starting from the XIX century) caused four emigration waves of Ukrainians and led to the emergence of a new cultural phenomenon – the art and folklore of Ukrainian emigration, i.e. diaspora culture. Having found themselves in difficult ambiguous conditions, where there was no favorable living environment, Ukrainian musical folklore began to lose its original identity and underwent assimilation processes.

  • INTERNATIONAL ELECTION OBSERVATION MISSION Ukraine — Presidential Election, 17 January 2010
    NATO Parliamentary Assembly Assemblée parlementaire de l’OTAN INTERNATIONAL ELECTION OBSERVATION MISSION Ukraine — Presidential Election, 17 January 2010 STATEMENT OF PRELIMINARY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS The first round of the 17 January presidential election in Ukraine was of high quality and showed significant progress over previous elections. This election met most OSCE and Council of Europe commitments. Civil and political rights were respected, including freedom of assembly, association and expression. Election day was conducted in an efficient and orderly manner. This election saw a diverse field of candidates representing alternative political views, offering a genuine choice to the electorate. Candidates were able to campaign freely across the country without impediment. The campaign period was generally calm and orderly. Unsubstantiated allegations of large-scale electoral fraud negatively affected the pre-election atmosphere and voters’ confidence. In contradiction with the law, administrative resources were misused by candidates in official positions. More transparent campaign financing is necessary during the pre-election period. By voting in large numbers and freely expressing their will, Ukrainians have shown the desire to decide on the course of the country. The intertwining of political and economic interests had a negative influence and undermined public confidence in the political process, posing a challenge for Ukraine’s leadership. Election rules have to be set clearly and should not be a permanent subject of discussion. Regrettably, a unified election code has not yet been adopted in Ukraine. The existing election law as amended in August 2009 was a step backward compared to previous legislation. As a result, the legal framework remains unclear and incomplete.

Belinsky was in good company with his assessment. Such sentiments are rife in the critical essays and articles of the first third of the nineteenth century. A decade earlier, Aleksandr Bestuzhev had declared that, “we have a criticism but no literature” (Leighton, Romantic Criticism 67). Several years before that, Pyotr Vyazemsky voiced a similar opinion in his article on Pushkin’s Captive of the Caucasus : “A Russian language exists, but a literature, the worthy expression of a mighty and virile people, does not yet exist!” (Leighton, Romantic Criticism 48). These histrionic claims are evidence of Russian intellectuals’ growing apprehension that there was nothing Russian about the literature produced in Russia. There was a prevailing belief that
