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 and NATO: Deadlock Or Re-Start? Ukraineukraine and and NATO: NATO: Ukraine Has Over the Past Ten Years Developed a Very Close Partnership with NATO
    Ukraine and NATO: Deadlock or Re-start? UkraineUkraine and and NATO: NATO: Ukraine has over the past ten years developed a very close partnership with NATO. Key areas of Deadlock or Re-start? consultation and co-operation include, for instance, peacekeeping operations, and defence and Deadlock or Re-start? security sector reform. NATO’s engagement serves two vital purposes for Ukraine. First, it enhan- Jakob Hedenskog ces Ukraine’s long-term security and serves as a guarantee for the independence of the state; and JAKOB HEDENSKOG second, it promotes and encourages democratic institutionalisation and spreading of democratic norms and values in the country. JAKOB HEDENSKOG Ukraine and NATO: Deadlock or Re-start NATO’s door for Ukraine remains open. The future development of the integration depends on Ukraine’s correspondence to the standards of NATO membership, on the determination of its political leadership, and on an effective mobilisation of public opinion on NATO membership. This report shows that Ukraine has made progress in reaching the standards for NATO membership, especially in the spheres of military contribution and interoperability. However the absence of national consensus and lack of political will and strategic management of the government hamper any effective implementation of Ukraine’s Euro-Atlantic integration. It is also crucial to neutralise Russia’s influence, which seriously hampers Ukraine’s Euro-Atlantic course. Leading representati- ves of the current leadership, especially Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych and his Party of Regions of Ukraine, prefer for the moment continued stable relations with Russia rather than NATO mem- ? bership. Jakob Hedenskog is a security policy analyst at the Swedish Defence Re- search Agency (FOI) specialised on Ukraine.

The article also examines the role of memes in society. The research material inclu- des creolized memes (including both verbal and visual elements) about the Ukrainian politicians Petro Poroshenko and Volodymyr Zelenskyi. These memes were created in 2019 during the Ukrai- nian presidential election. The article firstly focuses on the verbal aspects of the memes and their semantic and functional features. In addition, the peculiarities of opponent image construction are analysed. The article then examines the influence of Ukrainian politicians on the conduct of the “meme war”. The article also sheds light on the role which memes play in the polarization of society. Keywords: political meme; creolized meme; polarization of society; elections; image of opponent; politics in Ukraine 1 Introduction A peculiarity of political internet memes frequently lies in the fact that they not only reflect ideas, but also demonstrate a certain attitude towards a political event, political power in general, or a specific political leader.

  • Can Ukrainian Communists and Socialists Evolve to Social Democracy?
    Can Ukrainian Communists and Socialists Evolve to Social Democracy? OLE:XIY HARAN' n the Ukrainian political lexicon, the term "Left" usually refers to parties that I are to the left of both social democracy in its traditional understanding and to the left of several Ukrainian social democratic parties. In fact, one of the prob- lems for Ukrainian politics is the absence of a real and strong social democratic party; the quite influential Social Democratic Party of Ukraine/United- SPDU(o)-represents the interests of the oligarchs and could discredit the very idea of social democracy; and the three other social democratic groups are not influential. The main parties of the Ukrainian Left are the Communist Party of Ukraine (CPU), reborn in 1993 (with around 140,000 members, mostly from the older generation), and the Socialist Party of Ukraine (SPU), created in the autumn of 1991 (with a current membership of sixty thousand). In addition to these, both the Peasant Party of Ukraine (SeIPU, 1992) and the Progressive Socialist Party of Ukraine (PSPU, 1996) were relatively active in the second half of the 1990s (see figure 1). Regarding its future stance, the Left in Ukraine has choices to make: between commumism and social democracy., and between pro-Russian and pro-European choice. In this article, I will maintain that although the non-modernized Com- munists seem to have no chances oí` coming to power, the more moderate Social- ists could come to power in coalition with other forces (mainly centrist), but that would require more flexibility from them as well as their transformation into a center-left force.
