Ethno-political factors of consolidation of the contemporary Ukrainian society / edited by O. Rafalsky (head), V. Voynalovych, M. Riabchuk. Kyiv: I.F. Kuras Institute of Political and Ethnic Studies of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. 2020. p. 336
The book is based on the results from the research on Ethno-political factors of consolidation of the contemporary Ukrainian society carried out by the scholars of the ethno-political department of the I. F. Kuras Institute of Political and Ethnic Studies in 2017-2019.
It presents a detailed analysis of ethno-political factors of consolidation of contemporary Ukrainian society, outlines the conceptual framework for the analysis, and examines the available relevant studies on the topic. The dynamics of changing ethno-cultural and social identities in the aftermath of the Revolution of Dignity is scrutinised as the most complex and controversial phenomenon. Substantial attention is paid to the language and ethno-confessional aspects of societal consolidation, politics of memory and actualization of public space. As a result of the study, the question of conceptualising the image of the future Ukrainian society is raised.
The book is intended for scholars, teachers, students, journalists, civic activists and NGO leaders, as well as policy makers and civil servants who elaborate, legislate, and implement in practice the strategies of national consolidation.
