Book excerpt: Things change quickly in a war. When you take your gaze away from the kaleidoscope, it has turned. The greens have vanished, and the reds have made their way in. The question of who survives and who does not, as well as how things change instantly, is always present. Suddenly, your body begins to move in directions that your brain is unable to comprehend. You're cruising to the dentist one day. The next thing you know, you're chattering away with random people in a dark basement. It is a time when instinct takes over and emotions are obstructed in order to save your children or get through the next checkpoint. Finally, it is the startling realization that you are suddenly, unwillingly, a refugee, reliant on the kindness of unknown people, no longer a middle-class person in control of your own life. It reminded me of the stunned quality of other wars' early moments, when folks are still in disbelief, habits haven't hardened, and society hasn't completely collapsed. The Kiev I grew up knowing is no longer there. My Instagram has devolved into a post-apocalyptic haze of blood-filtered images of the dead and injured, and my friends send me Videos on YouTube of an AK-47 annihilating civilians who fall like toy soldiers. Since Russia's invasion, over 5.5 million Ukrainians have fled the country. This figure is expected to rise as Russian troops move into Kharkiv, Ukraine's second biggest city with a population of more than 1.5 million people. President Yanukovych, along with other politicians, fled Ukraine amid the brutal treatment of Ukrainian citizens and the 70-100 casualties, leaving the country in political limbo. Citizens are the only ones who aren't fleeing Ukraine. Men in Ukraine today leave their families to fight. Women now have to look after their children, siblings and parents, while the men stay and fight. I saw a viral picture somewhere of a wounded nurse who had been shot in the neck while attempting to help casualties. My friends emailed me about how they've replaced their purses with Molotov cocktails, their heels with headgear, and their jackets with bulletproof vests–the city has devolved into a war zone.
Download or read book Narkomania written by Jennifer J. Carroll and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-15 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Against the backdrop of a post-Soviet state set aflame by geopolitical conflict and violent revolution, Narkomania considers whether substance use disorders are everywhere the same and whether our responses to drug use presuppose what kind of people those who use drugs really are. Jennifer J. Carroll's ethnography is a story about public health and international efforts to quell the spread of HIV. Carroll focuses on Ukraine where the prevalence of HIV among people who use drugs is higher than in parts of sub-Saharan Africa and unpacks the arguments and myths surrounding medication-assisted treatment (MAT) in Ukraine. What she presents in Narkomania forces us to question drug policy, its uses, and its effects on "normal" citizens. Carroll uses her findings to explore what people who use drugs can teach us about the contemporary societies emerging in post-Soviet space. With examples of how MAT has been politicized, how drug use has been tied to ideas of "good" citizenship, and how vigilantism towards people who use drugs has occurred, Narkomania details the cultural and historical backstory of the situation in Ukraine. Carroll reveals how global efforts supporting MAT in Ukraine allow the ideas surrounding MAT, drug use, and HIV to resonate more broadly into international politics and echo into the heart of the Ukrainian public.

Download or read book When the River Ice Flows I Will Come Home written by Elisa Brodinsky Miller and published by Academic Studies PRess. This book was released on 2020-05-12 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after her father’s death, Elisa Brodinsky Miller uncovered a cache of letters among his belongings. Written in Russian and Yiddish, with datelines in Tsarist and early Soviet Russia, the letters detail eight long years (1914-1922) during which Elisa’s father, his five siblings, and their mother spend apart from Elisa’s grandfather who had left for America, believing their separation would be short. Miller, a Russian affairs specialist, learns bit by bit with each translation about the family she knew so little about, and the eight years of history they lived through, enabling her for the first time to connect her own experiences with those who came before her. This captivating memoir bridges the past with the present, as we learn about her grandparents’ struggles to escape Tsarist Russia, her parents’ hopes for their marriage in America, and her own reach for meaning and purpose: each a generation with dreams—first theirs, now hers.

Download or read book Borotbism A Chapter in the History of the Ukrainian Revolution written by Ivan Maistrenko and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has been written on the 1917–1920 revolution in Ukraine, on the national movement, the Makhnovists and the Bolsheviks. Yet there were others with a mass following whose role has faded from history books. One such party was the Borotbisty, the heirs of the mass Ukrainian Party of Socialist-Revolutionaries, an independent party seeking to achieve national liberation and social emancipation. Though widely known in revolutionary Europe in their day, the Borotbisty were decimated during the Stalinist holocaust in Ukraine. Out of print for over half a century, this lost text by Ivan Maistrenko, the last survivor of the Borotbisty, provides a unique account on this party and its historical role. Part memoir and part history, this is a thought-provoking book which challenges previous approaches to the revolution and shows how events in Ukraine decided the fate not only of the Russian Revolution but the upheavals in Europe at the time.
Download or read book The Price of Freedom written by Piotr S. Wandycz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Price of Freedom surveys and explains the fascinating and intricate history of East Central Europe - the present day countries of the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. Taking a thematic approach, the author explores such issues and controversies as the tension between the industrial developed West and the agrarian East Central Europe, the rise of modern nationalism, democracy and authoritarianism and Communism. While the countries of East Central Europe have differed dramatically from one another, the author asserts that they have been bound by a certain community of fate. These comparisons are traced through the Middle Ages and the Early Modern era to the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This exploration reveals that it is no accident that the Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland were the first among the former Soviet bloc nations to be admitted to NATO, and are likely to become the first members of the expanded European Union. Thus an understanding of their experiences, contributions and their place within the European community of nations vastly enriches our knowledge of Europe's past and present.The second edition of this distinguished book brings the history of the region up to date. It discusses the events of the post-communist decade of the 1990s and the problems resulting from the transition to democracy and market economy.
Download or read book To Get Ukraine written by Oleksandr Shyshko and published by Glagoslav Publications. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since Maidan in Kyiv and Russian presence in the Crimea, Ukraine has never been the same. In 2014, the country is deeply divided by the conflict imposed on the Ukrainians. But since nobody actually asked the nation, author Oleksandr Shyshko decided to take matters into his own hands and look for the answer to the ultimate question – who are the Ukrainians and what do they want. Shyshko spent his time researching the national identity of native Ukrainians, and as he went he stumbled on a discovery that led to yet another question – where is Ukraine going, the so-called Quo vadis? of the Ukrainian people. His findings and critical comments gave birth to this new book that is now for the first time being published in English. To Get Ukraine.

Download or read book Ukraine s Unnamed War written by Dominique Arel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-31 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 has its roots in the events of 2013–2014. Russia cynically termed the seditionist conflict in Crimea and Eastern Donbas a 'civil war' in order to claim non-involvement. This flies in the face of evidence, but the authors argue that the social science literature on civil wars can be used help understand why no political solution was found between 2015 and 2022. The book explains how Russia, after seizing Crimea, was reacting to events it could not control and sent troops only to areas of Ukraine where it knew it would face little resistance (Eastern Donbas). Kremlin decisionmakers misunderstood the attachment of the Russian-speaking population to the Ukrainian state and also failed to anticipate that their intervention would transform Ukraine into a more cohesively 'Ukrainian' polity. Drawing on Ukrainian documentary sources, this concise book explains these important developments to a non-specialist readership.
