Sources of the Ukrainian Elite's Identity Problems
Žernov, Denis ; Voráček, Emil (advisor) ; Doubek, Vratislav (referee)
This thesis addresses identity issues of the Ukrainian elites using two parallel Ukrainian narratives. In search for conflict lines, we look at 20th ct. milestones which played a major part in the formation of the Ukrainian elites. An emphasis is placed on the modernization of Ukrainian society in 1920s and 1930s. We also analyze the impact of these two Ukrainian narratives on the formation of the Soviet nation using strong historical ties between the Ukrainian and the Russian nation. These ties still have an impact on the formation of Ukrainian identities; however, the conclusion of this thesis suggests that it will be possible to assess the definite shape of the Ukrainian identity only after a new supranational identity - similar to the Soviet one - has been shaped. KEY WORDS: ELITES MODERNIZATION NARRATIVE IDENTITY RUSSIAN UKRAINIAN SOVIET

The Dichotomy of Ukrainian Identity
Žernov, Denis ; Doubek, Vratislav (advisor) ; Voráček, Emil (referee)
The Dichotomy of Ukrainian Identity Abstract This thesis addresses dichotomy of the Ukrainian identities using two parallel Ukrainian narratives. In search for conflict lines, we look at 20th ct. milestones which played a major role in the formation of such dichotomy. An emphasis is placed on the modernization of Ukrainian society in 1920s and 1930s. We also analyze the impact of the unformed Russian Empire and Soviet Union supranational building process on the formation of these two Ukrainian narratives up to the contemporary Ukrainian state. The conclusion of this thesis suggests that estimating a definitive shape of the Ukrainian identity will only be possible after a new supranational Eastern Slavic Identity has been shaped.
