Украинский историко-культурлогический журнал «Ї» (Львов) посвящает два последних номера интересному тематическому проекту - истории городов Западной Украины - мультиэтничных (фронтирных) мест на карте, прошлое и настоящее которых несет на себе отпечаток гетерогенности имперского наследия.
Статьи двух номеров посвящены урбанистике и культурной истории Коломии и Тернополя, их социальной и интеллектуальной истории, эпизодам истории органично сосуществоваших в них национальных общин.
«Ї» - один из наиболее известных культурологических журналов Украины, издающийся с 1989 года. Выходит как в бумажной, так и в электронной версии (доступ к архиву изданных номеров журнала), и является своеобразной дискуссионой площадкой для ученых и публицистов; изданием, разносторонне освещающим проблемы этничности и идентичности, мультикультурализма, регионализма, пограничного сотрудничества, прав человека, гражданского общества, евроинтеграции.
Из редакционного вступления к номеру редактора Тараса Возняка:
"... Город имел свою чудесную украинскую, польскую, немецкую и еврейскую истори. Не иначе как было несколько городов, которые в нашем представлении как бы и не пересекаются. Однако это не так. И еврейская, и и польская, и русская, и немецкая, и украинская Коломии жили даже не рядом, а вместе. Это мы и хотели продемонстрировать данным номером журнала."
Из вступительной статьи:
"Гуцульщина дійсно є чи не найколоритнішим етнографічним регіоном України. Недаремно саме вона отримала велетенську літературу як українською, так і иншими мовами.
Разом з тим, Коломия мала і певні инші аспірації. Як-от – не без того, щоб свого часу поконкурувати із Станиславовом. Особливо, коли йшлося про справи торгові – тобто істотні. А історично і Коломия, і Львів, і Станиславів були ланками одного великого торгового шляху з Німецьких земель до Волощини і Османської Порти.
Коломия пробувала закріпитися і як адміністративний центр, однак дальше староства чи повітового центру не піднялася. Занадто близько була Волощина і все та ж Османська Порта.
Певні шанси могли бути, коли Галичина 1772 року відійшла до Австрійської імперії. Частина галицького Поділля (як не дивно це звучить) ще якихось кілька десятиліть разом з Тернополем опинилися в складі Російської імперії, отож був шанс стати центром якогось особливого адміністративного утворення, що об’єднало б південне Тернопілля та Покуття."

"Дивним чином три столиці Галичини не є найдавнішими містами. Львів не конкурент Белзу, Івано-Франківськ (Станиславів) – Галичу, а Тернопіль – Теребовлі. Тим не менше, вони зробили добру «урбаністичну кар’єру». Першим стартував, звичайно ж, Львів – ще за галицьких королів та Речі Посполитої він став визнаною столицею краю. Натомість юні Тернопіль та Станиславів цілком і повністю зобов’язані методичності австрійської адміністрації, яка після розбору Речі Посполитої у 1772 році зробила їх регіональними адміністративними центрами. Щоправда, доля Тернополя ледь не зійшла на манівці, коли на якийсь час Тернопіль та околиці на початку ХІХ ст. були передані Російській імперії. Так і став би Тернопіль російським повітовим (у гіршому випадку) або російським губернським (якщо б «поталанило») містом.
<...>Тому, по-суті не галицький, а подільський в етнографічному сенсі регіон, одним з центрів якого і є Тернопіль, увійшовши у галицький контекст, не лише перейнявся галичанством, але й істотно зміцнив саму галицьку платформу, яка стала одним із стовпів відновлюваного українства."

The revenge of the Caucasus: Chechenization and the dual state in Russia
Richard Sakwa
(Post-communist development in Russia has been characterized by the development of a dual state in which the constitutional order is balanced by the consolidation of an arbitrary prerogative state. This horizontal dualism has taken root in Russia's regions; and this is accompanied by the establishment of a form of vertical dualism in relations between the regions and the center. Attempts to overcome this form of segmented regionalism under president Vladimir Putin have been undermined by the development of Chechenization, which represents not only the repudiation of dualism in this republic, but threatens to undermine the precarious balance between the constitutional and prerogative states at the federal level as well. Chechenization has its opponents in Moscow as well and its fate is defined by the struggle between the factions at the center. The process of “separatism without secession” is a highly ambiguous one and reflects broader developments in the Russian state as president Dmitry Medvedev seeks to strengthen the constitutional pillar of the dual state.)
Liberal nationalism, nationalist liberalization, and democracy: the cases of post-Soviet Estonia and Ukraine

Prince Adam Czartoryski as a liminal figure in the development of modern nationalism in Eastern Europe at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
Paul Brykczynski
(In Polish history, Prince Adam Czartoryski is almost universally regarded as one of the most important Polish statesmen and patriots of the first half of the nineteenth century. In Russian history, on the other hand, he is remembered chiefly as the Foreign Minister of the Russian Empire, and a close personal friend of Tsar Alexander I. How did Czartoryski reconcile his commitment to the Polish nation with his service to the Russian Empire (a state which occupied most of Poland)? This paper will attempt to place Prince Adam's friendship with Alexander, and his service to Imperial Russia, in the broader context of national identity formation in early nineteenth-century eastern Europe. It will be argued that the idea of finding a workable relationship between Poland and Russia, even within the framework of a single state for a “Slavic nation,” was an important and forgotten feature of Polish political thought at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. By answering the question of precisely how Czartoryski was able to negotiate between the identities of a “Polish patriot” and “Russian statesman,” the paper will shed light on the broader development of national identity in early nineteenth-century Poland and Russia)

Debate
Stalin's populism and the accidental creation of Russian national identity
David Brandenberger
(This article argues that the formation of a mass sense of Russian national identity was a recent, contingent event that first began to take shape under Stalin. Surveying the new literature on Russian nationalism, it contends that elite expressions of “Russianness” and bureaucratic proclamations of “official nationality” or russification should not be conflated with the advent of a truly mass sense of grassroots identity. Borrowing from an array of theorists, it argues that such a sense of identity only becomes possible after the establishment of necessary social institutions - universal schooling, a modern army, etc. Inasmuch as these institutions come into being only after the formation of the Soviet Union, this article focuses on how a mass sense of Russian national identity began to form under a rapid and unpredictable series of ideological shifts that occurred during the Stalinist 1930s and 1940s. This article's major contribution is its description of this development as not only contingent, but accidental. Drawing a clear line between russocentric propaganda and full-blown Russian nationalism, it argues that the ideological initiatives that precipitated mass identity formation in the USSR were populist rather than nationalist. In this sense, Stalinism has much more in common with Pernism than it does with truly national regimes.)

Minor Nation: The Alternative Modes of Belarusian Nationalism
Alexander Pershái
(In the twentieth century, nationalism has become an unwritten yet strong hegemonic rule that prescribes and defines cultural configurations of statehood. In the context of post-socialist and post-colonial transformations in “expanding” Eastern Europe, nation building is a complicated and incoherent process: the nation’s canonic attributes may contradict the cultural and historical “circumstances” of the development of a particular nation. This article questions a complicated dynamic between theoretical frameworks of nationalism and their applications in Eastern European states, such as in Belarus. More specifically, it argues against the discursive conceptualization of Belarus as a “nonexistent” or “undeveloped” nation. This article suggests rethinking nation building in Belarus in relation to the notion of major/minor developed by Deleuze and Guattari. The author implies that the unusual mode of Belarusian nationalism is not only a part of a struggle for domination between different intellectual groups in Belarus; it is also an issue of relying on traditional scholarly paradigms of nationalism that may no longer suffice.)

Commemorating the Future in Post-War Chernivtsi
Svetlana Frunchak
(Throughout the Second World War and the post-war period, the city of Chernivtsi was transformed from a multiethnic and borderland urban microcosm into a culturally uniform Soviet socialist city. As the Soviets finally took power in this onetime capital of a Hapsburg province in 1944, they not only sponsored further large-scale population transfers but also “repopulated” its history, creating a new urban myth of cultural uniformity. This article examines the connection between war commemoration in Chernivtsi in the era of post-war, state-sponsored anti-Semitism and the formation of collective memory and identities of the city’s post-war population. The images of homogeneously Ukrainian Chernivtsi and Bukovina were created through the art of monumental propaganda, promoting public remembrance of certain events and personalities while making sure that others were doomed to oblivion. Selective commemoration of the wartime events was an important tool of drawing the borders of Ukrainian national identity, making it exclusivist and ethnic-based. Through an investigation of the origins of the post-war collective memory in the region, this article addresses the problem of perceived discontinuity between all things Soviet and post-Soviet in Ukraine. It demonstrates that it is, on the contrary, the continuity between Soviet and post-Soviet eras that defines today’s dominant culture and state ideology in Ukraine and particularly in its borderlands.)

War of textbooks: History education in Russia and Ukraine
Karina Korostelina
(Many scholars stress that teaching about the shared past plays a major role in the formation of national, ethnic, religious, and regional identities, in addition to influencing intergroup perceptions and relations. Through the analysis of historic narratives in history textbooks this paper shows how the governments of the Russian Federation and Ukraine uses state-controlled history education to define their national identity and to present themselves in relations to each other. For example, history education in Ukraine portrays Russia as oppressive and aggressive enemy and emphasizes the idea of own victimhood as a core of national identity. History education in the Russian Federation condemns Ukrainian nationalism and proclaims commonality and unity of history and culture with Russian dominance over “younger brother, Ukraine”. An exploration of the mechanisms that state-controlled history education employs to define social identities in secondary school textbooks can provide an early warning of potential problems being created between the two states.)
History education and historical remembrance in contemporary Russia: Sources of political attitudes of pro-Kremlin youth
Ekaterina Levintova, Jim Butterfield
(Why during the last decade have many young Russians become politically active well beyond simply voting? Particularly striking among youth activists is their enthusiastic support for Putinism and a resounding rejection of the policies, symbols and political figures of the era of President Boris Yeltsin (1992–2000). The vast majority of youth activists are of college age (18–24), which means they were far too young to be aware of what was happening in the country in the 1990s, the period that while democratic and pro-Western, also represents a failure of the Russian state in their imagery. To what degree do the opinions and world views of politically active pro-Kremlin youth reflect the recently emerged, nearly ubiquitous interpretation of recent history as presented in the high school curriculum? To that end, we undertake a content analysis of 47 high school textbooks in Russian history, followed by open-ended interviews with 37 activists from the three most visible youth organizations, all of whom are pro-Kremlin in their orientation. Although demonstrating a causal relationship is methodologically unfeasible, we find a marked correlation between the views of both the Yeltsin and Putin eras presented in those textbooks and in the political beliefs of the youth groups.)
History as a propaganda tool in Putin’s Russia
Miguel Vázquez Liñán
(This paper analyzes the propaganda campaign orchestrated by the Russian authorities with the aim of promoting a version of the country’s history for political purposes. This version puts the accent on the exceptionality of Russian historical development, and is geared to endowing the figure of Vladimir Putin – seen as the person who has succeeded in carrying out a number of national projects that have been frequently abandoned throughout Russian history. The analysis presented here centres on two channels used in the campaign: school textbooks and the film industry.)

Ten Yardsticks of Federal Conflict Regulation and their Application to Russia
Andreas Heinemann-Grüder
(There is sharp controversy over the pros and cons of federalism as a means of regulating or escalating conflicts in deeply divided societies. Successful conflict regulation depends on the institutional minutiae of a given federation and its interdependence with other parts of the political regime. The various guises assumed by federalism in Russia since the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 demonstrate that the survival of a federation, particularly one based on ethnic principles, depends on the adherence to federal norms, the functioning of democratic institutions, effective conflict-regulation devices, and political parties that reflect federal cleavages..)
Territories of ‘Special Status’ in Russia: The Ethnic Dimension
Oksana Oracheva; Alexander Osipov
(The practical significance of creating 'ethnic territorial units' within the Russian federation remains unclear. Since 2003 the Russian Government has implemented a policy of merging ethnically defined autonomous okrugs (districts) into larger units. The former okrugs have been replaced by the territories of a 'special' status. Some new legal provisions refer to these units' 'ethnic' character. However, examination of the new legislation reveals that issues of ethnicity, the protection and promotion of minority languages, and the cultural heritage of the okrugs have largely been neglected. All the legal acts adopted to date are very general in nature and do not provide details of the guarantees and obligations necessary to put such policies into practice.)
The Fall and Rise of Regionalism?
J. Paul Goode
(The centralization of power and the decline of regionalism were two of Vladimir Putin's principal achievements during his presidency. These achievements are now threatened by the global financial crisis, which weakens the Russian central state and widens existing divisions between the centre and the regions. While the crisis does not portend a revival of a 1990s-style regionalism, it exposes the Kremlin's over-centralization of power in the form of stress within the ruling party, United Russia, and rising internal defections among regional elites. As a result, the regime is increasingly vulnerable to social protest and its potential transformation into anti-regime nationalism.)

An Analysis of Reconciliatory Mediation in Northern Albania: The Role of Customary Mediators
Ayse Betul Celik; Alma Shkreli
Regional Influences on the Formulation and Implementation of NKVD Order 00447
Michael Ellman
(The article provides an analysis of the regional input into NKVD order 00447, the deadliest of the 1937-1938 state terror attacks on the Soviet population. This regional input concerned the decision to establish regional troikas, the choice of the target groups, the size of the initial limits, the extension of the deadline for completing the operation, the relationship between the initial limits and the final number of victims, the relationship between the final limits and the final number of victims, the actual victims, and unauthorised terror. It is argued that the formulation and implementation of order 00447 was a dynamic process of interaction between the centre and the regions in which the regions played a significant, but subordinate, role.)

The Politics of Soviet and Nazi Genocides in Orange Ukraine
Ivan Katchanovski
(This article examines policies and public attitudes concerning the issue of Soviet and Nazi genocides in Ukraine after the 'Orange Revolution'. The central question is whether such factors as regional political culture affect contemporary policies and public attitudes towards these important historical issues. The article uses a 2008 survey conducted for this study by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology to analyse determinants of public attitudes concerning the question of whether Soviet and the Nazi policies were genocidal. It finds that regional political culture is the most significant factor affecting policies and attitudes towards the Soviet genocide in Ukraine.)
Parliamentary Oversight in Putin's Neo-patrimonial State. Watchdogs or Show-dogs?
Sarah Whitmore
(Conceptualising Russia as a neopatrimonial state directs attention to the patrimonial relations that pervaded formal institutions to reveal increasing tensions within the state during Putin's presidency. A case study of parliamentary oversight practices points to the emergence of legitimation as their key purpose, but also to the growing contradictions between the controlling and legitimating impulses of Putin's regime. At the same time deputies responded to the changes in their status and influence by moving their resources towards the patrimonial sphere, most notably utilising oversight institutions for direct and indirect private interests—activities tolerated by the regime in exchange for political loyalty.)

The Mind of the Nation: The Debate about Völkerpsychologie, 1851-1900
By Klautke, Egbert
(Völkerpsychologie or 'folk psychology' has a bad reputation amongst historians. It is either viewed as a pseudo-science not worth studying in detail, or considered a 'failure' since, in contrast to sociology, psychology, and anthropology, it never established itself as an independent discipline at university level. This article argues that Völkerpsychologie as developed by Moritz Lazarus and Heymann Steinthal was an important current in nineteenth-century German thought. While it was riddled with conceptual and methodological problems and received harsh criticism from academic reviewers, it contributed to the establishing of the social sciences since key concepts of folk psychology were appropriated by scholars such as Georg Simmel and Franz Boas. The article summarizes the main features of Lazarus and Steinthal's Völkerpsychologie, discusses its reception in Germany and abroad, and shows how arguments originally developed for folk psychology were used by Lazarus to reject antisemitism in the 1870s and 1880s. It concludes that Lazarus and Steinthal's Völkerpsychologie epitomized the mentality of nineteenth-century liberals with its belief in science, progress, and the nation, which was reinforced by their experience of Jewish emancipation).
"Imposed Authenticity": Approaching Eastern European National Characterologies in the Inter-war Period
By Trencsényi, Balázs
(The article analyses the concepts of national specificity and the national past in Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary; focusing on debates in the inter-war period. It seeks to discern the common features, as well as the considerable divergence, between the local versions of this characterological discourse, while also placing them into a wider European cultural context. It concentrates on the use of history and the category of historicity, which became an important question in the inter-war period as nineteenth-century evolutionary narratives encountered challenges. To explain the differences between the characterologies, it goes beyond a monocausal scheme. It provides a contextual analysis of the symbolic resources and available ideological references that were used for creating these discourses in the respective countries. In the light of the three case studies, it also seeks to contribute to discussions of the problem of modernism and anti-modernism in twentieth-century political thought.)
«Ї»: История мультиэтничных культурных центров Западной Украины
Украинский историко-культурлогический журнал «Ї» (Львов) посвящает два последних номера интересному тематическому проекту - истории городов Западной Украины - мультиэтничных (фронтирных) мест на карте, прошлое и настоящее которых несет на себе отпечаток гетерогенности имперского наследия.
Статьи двух номеров посвящены урбанистике и культурной истории Коломии и Тернополя, их социальной и интеллектуальной истории, эпизодам истории органично сосуществоваших в них национальных общин.
«Ї» - один из наиболее известных культурологических журналов Украины, издающийся с 1989 года. Выходит как в бумажной, так и в электронной версии (доступ к архиву изданных номеров журнала), и является своеобразной дискуссионой площадкой для ученых и публицистов; изданием, разносторонне освещающим проблемы этничности и идентичности, мультикультурализма, регионализма, пограничного сотрудничества, прав человека, гражданского общества, евроинтеграции.
№ 62 (2010) журнала посвящен гуцульскому культурному центру, "местечку" - Коломии.
Из редакционного вступления к номеру редактора Тараса Возняка:
"... Город имел свою чудесную украинскую, польскую, немецкую и еврейскую истори. Не иначе как было несколько городов, которые в нашем представлении как бы и не пересекаются. Однако это не так. И еврейская, и и польская, и русская, и немецкая, и украинская Коломии жили даже не рядом, а вместе. Это мы и хотели продемонстрировать данным номером журнала."
Из вступительной статьи:
"Гуцульщина дійсно є чи не найколоритнішим етнографічним регіоном України. Недаремно саме вона отримала велетенську літературу як українською, так і иншими мовами.
Разом з тим, Коломия мала і певні инші аспірації. Як-от – не без того, щоб свого часу поконкурувати із Станиславовом. Особливо, коли йшлося про справи торгові – тобто істотні. А історично і Коломия, і Львів, і Станиславів були ланками одного великого торгового шляху з Німецьких земель до Волощини і Османської Порти.
Коломия пробувала закріпитися і як адміністративний центр, однак дальше староства чи повітового центру не піднялася. Занадто близько була Волощина і все та ж Османська Порта.
Певні шанси могли бути, коли Галичина 1772 року відійшла до Австрійської імперії. Частина галицького Поділля (як не дивно це звучить) ще якихось кілька десятиліть разом з Тернополем опинилися в складі Російської імперії, отож був шанс стати центром якогось особливого адміністративного утворення, що об’єднало б південне Тернопілля та Покуття."

№ 63 (2010) (ТЕРНОПІЛЬ * TARNOPOL * TERNOPOL * טארנאפאל)
Из вступительной статьи к номеру:
"Дивним чином три столиці Галичини не є найдавнішими містами. Львів не конкурент Белзу, Івано-Франківськ (Станиславів) – Галичу, а Тернопіль – Теребовлі. Тим не менше, вони зробили добру «урбаністичну кар’єру». Першим стартував, звичайно ж, Львів – ще за галицьких королів та Речі Посполитої він став визнаною столицею краю. Натомість юні Тернопіль та Станиславів цілком і повністю зобов’язані методичності австрійської адміністрації, яка після розбору Речі Посполитої у 1772 році зробила їх регіональними адміністративними центрами. Щоправда, доля Тернополя ледь не зійшла на манівці, коли на якийсь час Тернопіль та околиці на початку ХІХ ст. були передані Російській імперії. Так і став би Тернопіль російським повітовим (у гіршому випадку) або російським губернським (якщо б «поталанило») містом.
<...>Тому, по-суті не галицький, а подільський в етнографічному сенсі регіон, одним з центрів якого і є Тернопіль, увійшовши у галицький контекст, не лише перейнявся галичанством, але й істотно зміцнив саму галицьку платформу, яка стала одним із стовпів відновлюваного українства."

The revenge of the Caucasus: Chechenization and the dual state in Russia
Richard Sakwa
(Post-communist development in Russia has been characterized by the development of a dual state in which the constitutional order is balanced by the consolidation of an arbitrary prerogative state. This horizontal dualism has taken root in Russia's regions; and this is accompanied by the establishment of a form of vertical dualism in relations between the regions and the center. Attempts to overcome this form of segmented regionalism under president Vladimir Putin have been undermined by the development of Chechenization, which represents not only the repudiation of dualism in this republic, but threatens to undermine the precarious balance between the constitutional and prerogative states at the federal level as well. Chechenization has its opponents in Moscow as well and its fate is defined by the struggle between the factions at the center. The process of “separatism without secession” is a highly ambiguous one and reflects broader developments in the Russian state as president Dmitry Medvedev seeks to strengthen the constitutional pillar of the dual state.)
Liberal nationalism, nationalist liberalization, and democracy: the cases of post-Soviet Estonia and Ukraine

Prince Adam Czartoryski as a liminal figure in the development of modern nationalism in Eastern Europe at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries
Paul Brykczynski
(In Polish history, Prince Adam Czartoryski is almost universally regarded as one of the most important Polish statesmen and patriots of the first half of the nineteenth century. In Russian history, on the other hand, he is remembered chiefly as the Foreign Minister of the Russian Empire, and a close personal friend of Tsar Alexander I. How did Czartoryski reconcile his commitment to the Polish nation with his service to the Russian Empire (a state which occupied most of Poland)? This paper will attempt to place Prince Adam's friendship with Alexander, and his service to Imperial Russia, in the broader context of national identity formation in early nineteenth-century eastern Europe. It will be argued that the idea of finding a workable relationship between Poland and Russia, even within the framework of a single state for a “Slavic nation,” was an important and forgotten feature of Polish political thought at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. By answering the question of precisely how Czartoryski was able to negotiate between the identities of a “Polish patriot” and “Russian statesman,” the paper will shed light on the broader development of national identity in early nineteenth-century Poland and Russia)

Stalin's populism and the accidental creation of Russian national identity
David Brandenberger
(This article argues that the formation of a mass sense of Russian national identity was a recent, contingent event that first began to take shape under Stalin. Surveying the new literature on Russian nationalism, it contends that elite expressions of “Russianness” and bureaucratic proclamations of “official nationality” or russification should not be conflated with the advent of a truly mass sense of grassroots identity. Borrowing from an array of theorists, it argues that such a sense of identity only becomes possible after the establishment of necessary social institutions - universal schooling, a modern army, etc. Inasmuch as these institutions come into being only after the formation of the Soviet Union, this article focuses on how a mass sense of Russian national identity began to form under a rapid and unpredictable series of ideological shifts that occurred during the Stalinist 1930s and 1940s. This article's major contribution is its description of this development as not only contingent, but accidental. Drawing a clear line between russocentric propaganda and full-blown Russian nationalism, it argues that the ideological initiatives that precipitated mass identity formation in the USSR were populist rather than nationalist. In this sense, Stalinism has much more in common with Pernism than it does with truly national regimes.)

Minor Nation: The Alternative Modes of Belarusian Nationalism
Alexander Pershái
(In the twentieth century, nationalism has become an unwritten yet strong hegemonic rule that prescribes and defines cultural configurations of statehood. In the context of post-socialist and post-colonial transformations in “expanding” Eastern Europe, nation building is a complicated and incoherent process: the nation’s canonic attributes may contradict the cultural and historical “circumstances” of the development of a particular nation. This article questions a complicated dynamic between theoretical frameworks of nationalism and their applications in Eastern European states, such as in Belarus. More specifically, it argues against the discursive conceptualization of Belarus as a “nonexistent” or “undeveloped” nation. This article suggests rethinking nation building in Belarus in relation to the notion of major/minor developed by Deleuze and Guattari. The author implies that the unusual mode of Belarusian nationalism is not only a part of a struggle for domination between different intellectual groups in Belarus; it is also an issue of relying on traditional scholarly paradigms of nationalism that may no longer suffice.)

Commemorating the Future in Post-War Chernivtsi
Svetlana Frunchak
(Throughout the Second World War and the post-war period, the city of Chernivtsi was transformed from a multiethnic and borderland urban microcosm into a culturally uniform Soviet socialist city. As the Soviets finally took power in this onetime capital of a Hapsburg province in 1944, they not only sponsored further large-scale population transfers but also “repopulated” its history, creating a new urban myth of cultural uniformity. This article examines the connection between war commemoration in Chernivtsi in the era of post-war, state-sponsored anti-Semitism and the formation of collective memory and identities of the city’s post-war population. The images of homogeneously Ukrainian Chernivtsi and Bukovina were created through the art of monumental propaganda, promoting public remembrance of certain events and personalities while making sure that others were doomed to oblivion. Selective commemoration of the wartime events was an important tool of drawing the borders of Ukrainian national identity, making it exclusivist and ethnic-based. Through an investigation of the origins of the post-war collective memory in the region, this article addresses the problem of perceived discontinuity between all things Soviet and post-Soviet in Ukraine. It demonstrates that it is, on the contrary, the continuity between Soviet and post-Soviet eras that defines today’s dominant culture and state ideology in Ukraine and particularly in its borderlands.)

Past imperfect: The construction of history in the school curriculum and mass media in post-communist Russia and Ukraine
Ekaterina Levintova
War of textbooks: History education in Russia and Ukraine
Karina Korostelina
(Many scholars stress that teaching about the shared past plays a major role in the formation of national, ethnic, religious, and regional identities, in addition to influencing intergroup perceptions and relations. Through the analysis of historic narratives in history textbooks this paper shows how the governments of the Russian Federation and Ukraine uses state-controlled history education to define their national identity and to present themselves in relations to each other. For example, history education in Ukraine portrays Russia as oppressive and aggressive enemy and emphasizes the idea of own victimhood as a core of national identity. History education in the Russian Federation condemns Ukrainian nationalism and proclaims commonality and unity of history and culture with Russian dominance over “younger brother, Ukraine”. An exploration of the mechanisms that state-controlled history education employs to define social identities in secondary school textbooks can provide an early warning of potential problems being created between the two states.)
History education and historical remembrance in contemporary Russia: Sources of political attitudes of pro-Kremlin youth
Ekaterina Levintova, Jim Butterfield
(Why during the last decade have many young Russians become politically active well beyond simply voting? Particularly striking among youth activists is their enthusiastic support for Putinism and a resounding rejection of the policies, symbols and political figures of the era of President Boris Yeltsin (1992–2000). The vast majority of youth activists are of college age (18–24), which means they were far too young to be aware of what was happening in the country in the 1990s, the period that while democratic and pro-Western, also represents a failure of the Russian state in their imagery. To what degree do the opinions and world views of politically active pro-Kremlin youth reflect the recently emerged, nearly ubiquitous interpretation of recent history as presented in the high school curriculum? To that end, we undertake a content analysis of 47 high school textbooks in Russian history, followed by open-ended interviews with 37 activists from the three most visible youth organizations, all of whom are pro-Kremlin in their orientation. Although demonstrating a causal relationship is methodologically unfeasible, we find a marked correlation between the views of both the Yeltsin and Putin eras presented in those textbooks and in the political beliefs of the youth groups.)
History as a propaganda tool in Putin’s Russia
Miguel Vázquez Liñán
(This paper analyzes the propaganda campaign orchestrated by the Russian authorities with the aim of promoting a version of the country’s history for political purposes. This version puts the accent on the exceptionality of Russian historical development, and is geared to endowing the figure of Vladimir Putin – seen as the person who has succeeded in carrying out a number of national projects that have been frequently abandoned throughout Russian history. The analysis presented here centres on two channels used in the campaign: school textbooks and the film industry.)

Federalism and Inter-governmental Relations in Russia
Cameron Ross
Ten Yardsticks of Federal Conflict Regulation and their Application to Russia
Andreas Heinemann-Grüder
(There is sharp controversy over the pros and cons of federalism as a means of regulating or escalating conflicts in deeply divided societies. Successful conflict regulation depends on the institutional minutiae of a given federation and its interdependence with other parts of the political regime. The various guises assumed by federalism in Russia since the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 demonstrate that the survival of a federation, particularly one based on ethnic principles, depends on the adherence to federal norms, the functioning of democratic institutions, effective conflict-regulation devices, and political parties that reflect federal cleavages..)
Territories of ‘Special Status’ in Russia: The Ethnic Dimension
Oksana Oracheva; Alexander Osipov
(The practical significance of creating 'ethnic territorial units' within the Russian federation remains unclear. Since 2003 the Russian Government has implemented a policy of merging ethnically defined autonomous okrugs (districts) into larger units. The former okrugs have been replaced by the territories of a 'special' status. Some new legal provisions refer to these units' 'ethnic' character. However, examination of the new legislation reveals that issues of ethnicity, the protection and promotion of minority languages, and the cultural heritage of the okrugs have largely been neglected. All the legal acts adopted to date are very general in nature and do not provide details of the guarantees and obligations necessary to put such policies into practice.)
The Fall and Rise of Regionalism?
J. Paul Goode
(The centralization of power and the decline of regionalism were two of Vladimir Putin's principal achievements during his presidency. These achievements are now threatened by the global financial crisis, which weakens the Russian central state and widens existing divisions between the centre and the regions. While the crisis does not portend a revival of a 1990s-style regionalism, it exposes the Kremlin's over-centralization of power in the form of stress within the ruling party, United Russia, and rising internal defections among regional elites. As a result, the regime is increasingly vulnerable to social protest and its potential transformation into anti-regime nationalism.)

Regional Influences on the Formulation and Implementation of NKVD Order 00447
Michael Ellman
(The article provides an analysis of the regional input into NKVD order 00447, the deadliest of the 1937-1938 state terror attacks on the Soviet population. This regional input concerned the decision to establish regional troikas, the choice of the target groups, the size of the initial limits, the extension of the deadline for completing the operation, the relationship between the initial limits and the final number of victims, the relationship between the final limits and the final number of victims, the actual victims, and unauthorised terror. It is argued that the formulation and implementation of order 00447 was a dynamic process of interaction between the centre and the regions in which the regions played a significant, but subordinate, role.)

The Politics of Soviet and Nazi Genocides in Orange Ukraine
Ivan Katchanovski
(This article examines policies and public attitudes concerning the issue of Soviet and Nazi genocides in Ukraine after the 'Orange Revolution'. The central question is whether such factors as regional political culture affect contemporary policies and public attitudes towards these important historical issues. The article uses a 2008 survey conducted for this study by the Kyiv International Institute of Sociology to analyse determinants of public attitudes concerning the question of whether Soviet and the Nazi policies were genocidal. It finds that regional political culture is the most significant factor affecting policies and attitudes towards the Soviet genocide in Ukraine.)
Parliamentary Oversight in Putin's Neo-patrimonial State. Watchdogs or Show-dogs?
Sarah Whitmore
(Conceptualising Russia as a neopatrimonial state directs attention to the patrimonial relations that pervaded formal institutions to reveal increasing tensions within the state during Putin's presidency. A case study of parliamentary oversight practices points to the emergence of legitimation as their key purpose, but also to the growing contradictions between the controlling and legitimating impulses of Putin's regime. At the same time deputies responded to the changes in their status and influence by moving their resources towards the patrimonial sphere, most notably utilising oversight institutions for direct and indirect private interests—activities tolerated by the regime in exchange for political loyalty.)

The Mind of the Nation: The Debate about Völkerpsychologie, 1851-1900
By Klautke, Egbert
(Völkerpsychologie or 'folk psychology' has a bad reputation amongst historians. It is either viewed as a pseudo-science not worth studying in detail, or considered a 'failure' since, in contrast to sociology, psychology, and anthropology, it never established itself as an independent discipline at university level. This article argues that Völkerpsychologie as developed by Moritz Lazarus and Heymann Steinthal was an important current in nineteenth-century German thought. While it was riddled with conceptual and methodological problems and received harsh criticism from academic reviewers, it contributed to the establishing of the social sciences since key concepts of folk psychology were appropriated by scholars such as Georg Simmel and Franz Boas. The article summarizes the main features of Lazarus and Steinthal's Völkerpsychologie, discusses its reception in Germany and abroad, and shows how arguments originally developed for folk psychology were used by Lazarus to reject antisemitism in the 1870s and 1880s. It concludes that Lazarus and Steinthal's Völkerpsychologie epitomized the mentality of nineteenth-century liberals with its belief in science, progress, and the nation, which was reinforced by their experience of Jewish emancipation).
"Imposed Authenticity": Approaching Eastern European National Characterologies in the Inter-war Period
By Trencsényi, Balázs
(The article analyses the concepts of national specificity and the national past in Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary; focusing on debates in the inter-war period. It seeks to discern the common features, as well as the considerable divergence, between the local versions of this characterological discourse, while also placing them into a wider European cultural context. It concentrates on the use of history and the category of historicity, which became an important question in the inter-war period as nineteenth-century evolutionary narratives encountered challenges. To explain the differences between the characterologies, it goes beyond a monocausal scheme. It provides a contextual analysis of the symbolic resources and available ideological references that were used for creating these discourses in the respective countries. In the light of the three case studies, it also seeks to contribute to discussions of the problem of modernism and anti-modernism in twentieth-century political thought.)
