UKRAINI 168 - Ukraine: History, Identity, Society, and the Environment #12738
Online | TuWTh | 1:00 pm - 3:30 pm | 3 unitsSession D, July 7 - August 15
How many Maidans did Ukraine have in the last 30 years, and how did they shape the current agenda in Ukraine? What role did students play in those social uprisings? Is Ukraine a culturally diverse country? How is the attitude of Ukrainians towards the environment and their ecological history connected with socio-political life? How do fictional representations open up new ways of thinking about catastrophic events in Ukraine (Holodomor, Chornobyl, 2022 war) and social problems (corruption, poverty, gender inequality, and discrimination)? This course will help you find the answers to these questions and develop more ways to understand and learn from Ukrainians and their exceptional invincibility.
Taught in English with readings in English.
