U ožujku 2014., nakon svrgavanja proruske vlade Viktora Janukoviča i uspostavljanja nove, prozapadne vlade u Ukrajini, Rusija je anektirala poluotok Krim koji je do tada bio u sastavu Ukrajine. Sam ...čin aneksije prikazivan je različito u europskim državama, a ovaj rad istražuje medijski prikaz u Hrvatskoj, Mađarskoj i Srbiji. Kao istraživačka metoda korištena je analiza sadržaja članaka i medijskih objava s relevantnih internetskih portala u istraživanim državama. Prema rezultatima analize sadržaja uočeno je kako se aneksija Krima u Hrvatskoj prikazuje sukladno prozapadnim politikama, u Mađarskoj se ističu određene domaće objektivnosti, dok je najviše proruskih stavova u izvješćivanju zamijećeno u Srbiji.
In March 2014, after the overthrow of the pro-Russian government of Viktor Yanukovych and the establishment of a new, pro-Western government in Ukraine, the Russian Federation annexed the Crimean peninsula, until then a part of Ukraine. The act of annexation itself was portrayed differently in European countries, and this paper investigates the media portrayal in Croatia, Hungary and Serbia. Content analysis of articles and media publications from relevant internet portals in the researched countries was used as a research method. According to the results of the analysis of the content, it was observed that the annexation of Crimea in Croatia is presented in accordance with pro-Western policies, in Hungary certain domestic objectivities stand out, while in Serbia pro-Russian positions are mostly noticed in the reporting.
Ruskom invazijom na Ukrajinu 24. veljače 2022. godine započinje čitav niz događaja koji formiraju globalnu krizu i na humanitarnoj i na ekonomskoj, diplomatskoj, ekumenskoj razini. Medijske kuće ...širom svijeta prate te izvještavaju o ovom ratu fokusirajući se pritom na specifične naglaske koji su u skladu s njihovom uredničkom politikom. Cilj je ovog istraživanje utvrditi koliko i na koji način redakcija portala Bitno.net izvještava o ratu u Ukrajini te koja su tematska područja pri tome najzastupljenija. Koristeći se metodom analize sadržaja, na kvalitativnoj i kvantitativnoj razini, analiziramo 213 članaka objavljenih na portalu Bitno.net u 2022. godini koji se direktno odnose na obradu teme rata u Ukrajini. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju značajno oslanjanje redakcije portala na izvanjske (agencijske) izvore i na kvalitativnoj i na kvantitativnoj razini.

In Beau Monde on Empire’s Edge , Mayhill C. Fowler tells the story of the rise and fall of a group of men who created culture both Soviet and Ukrainian. This collective biography showcases new ...aspects of the politics of cultural production in the Soviet Union by focusing on theater and on the multi-ethnic borderlands. Unlike their contemporaries in Moscow or Leningrad, these artists from the regions have been all but forgotten despite the quality of their art. Beau Monde restores the periphery to the center of Soviet culture. Sources in Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, and Yiddish highlight the important multi-ethnic context and the challenges inherent in constructing Ukrainian culture in a place of Ukrainians, Russians, Poles, and Jews. Beau Monde on Empire’s Edge traces the growing overlap between the arts and the state in the early Soviet years, and explains the intertwining of politics and culture in the region today.
Istraživanje analizira ubrzanje povijesti kojem prisustvujemo u našem vremenu, a koje je bjelodano s izbijanjem rata u Ukrajini, bivajući u proteklim godinama vidljivo i u nizu drugih događaja i ...kriza, kakvi se u ovako značajnom intenzitetu i frekventnosti nisu događali još od vremena završetka Drugoga svjetskog rata. Razmatrajući rat u Ukrajini i krize koje su mu prethodile osporava se teza historičara Erica Hobsbawma da se »kratko« 20. stoljeće koje je trajalo od Prvoga svjetskog rata »kao doba ekstrema« završilo padom »komunizma« i Berlinskog zida, nakon čega smo ušli u 21. stoljeće. Nasuprot ovoj tezi, kao i nasuprot poznatoj tezi o »kraju povijesti«, rad iznosi tezu da »politički« još uvijek živimo u 20. stoljeću, s obzirom na to da u našem vremenu i dalje postoje napetosti među velikim silama slične onima koje su obilježile i 20. stoljeće i koje općenito obilježavaju moderni svijet od Westfalskog mira u 17. stoljeću naovamo. Ovu općenitu tezu rad obrazlaže promatrajući u najosnovnijim crtama dijalektiku moderne europske i svjetske povijesti i zaključujući da ne samo što »politički« još uvijek živimo u »dugom« 20. stoljeću već još uvijek živimo i u »najdužem« westfalskom klasičnom modernom vijeku koji neprekidno traje tri i pol stoljeća u uvijek istim dijalektičkim proturječjima svjetske politike. Naposljetku, rad razmatra i zada- ću filozofije u vremenu tzv. »ubrzanja povijesti« kakvo je naše te zaključuje kako je filozofija upravo u ovakvim vremenima, hoće li se potvrditi kao znanost, dužna ponuditi jednu svježu i kreativnu »filozofiju povijesti« koja bi objasnila tijek aktualnih međunarodnih događaja.
The paper analyzes the acceleration of the history we are witnessing in our time, which is evident in a series of events and crises that mark the world we live in, especially after the start of the war in Ukraine, which have not occurred in such significant intensity and frequency since the end of the Second World War. Considering these events and crises, the paper discusses the thesis of a historian Eric Hobsbawm that the “short” 20th century that had lasted as “the age of extremes” since the First World War ended with the fall of “communism” and the Berlin Wall, after which we in fact entered the 21st century. Contrary to this thesis and to the well-known thesis on the “end of history”, our paper presents the view that we are still “politically” in the 20th century, because in our time there are similar tensions between the great powers that marked the 20th century and which in general mark the modern world since Westphalian peace in the 17th century. This general thesis is explained by the observation of the most basic lines of the dialectics of modern European and world history. The paper concludes that we are not only “politically” living in the “long” 20th century, but we are still “politically” living in the “longest” classical Westphalian age, which has been lasting for three and a half centuries in the same dialectical contradictions of world politics. Ultimately, the paper also discusses the task of philosophy in the times of the so-called “acceleration of history”, such as ours, and concludes that philosophy as a discipline in these times is obligated to offer, with theoretical creativity, a fresh philosophy of history, explaining in wider perspective a series of actual international occurrences.
Komparativna analiza utvrdila je slicnost tranzicijskih demografskih procesa u Ukrajini i Hrvatskoj kao posljedicu specificnih povijesnih, drustvenih i ekonomskih uvjeta razvoja u okviru bivsih ...drzavnih zajednica. Razmatranjem posttranzicijskih obiljezja i demografskoga naslijeda potvrdena je i usporedivost suvremenih demografskih obiljezja i procesa u ovim dvjema drzavama. Recentna geopoliticka dogadanja na istoku Europe vezana uz rusku agresiju na Ukrajinu uzrokovala su pojacana, prisilna razmjestanja stanovnistva na ukrajinskom i europskom prostoru u kontekstu prognanickih i izbjeglickih kretanja. Pritom su definirana glavna izvorista migracijskih valova, smjerovi i intenzitet pojedinih oblika prisilnih (ratnih) migracija na teritoriju Ukrajine i izvan njega. Osim povecane prostorne pokretljivosti stanovnistva (unutarnje i vanjske) i izravnih demografskih gubitaka, ostale demo-grafske posljedice vidjet ce se s odgodenim efektom, a nakon zavrsetka rata i stabilizacije prilika u Ukrajini. Kljucne rijeci: Hrvatska, izbjeglice, prisilne migracije, prognanici, tranzicija, Ukrajina

This book provides a practice-based analysis of European Union (EU) diplomacy and community-building.
Unlike studies focusing on how EU community-building proceeds centrally in Brussels, this book ...turns to EU diplomacy in its bordering state of Ukraine. At a time when the EU's internal cohesion is being put to the test, this book provides novel insights into how feelings of belonging are produced amongst its members in the absence of a homogenous 'we'. Transcending the traditional dichotomy between macro-structures and micro-processes of interaction, the book demonstrates that the EU's large-scale community depends for its existence on practical instantiations of community-building in distinct 'communities of practice'. Using the case of an EU diplomatic 'community of practice' in Kyiv, Ukraine takes these questions to the EU's margins, highlighting that the boundaries of community are key sites in which community materialises. The in-depth case study identifies diplomats' 'boundary work' as the constitutive rule that makes the local 'community of practice' cohere and create feelings of belonging to the large-scale polity of the EU.
This book will be of interest to researchers of European studies, as well as to those working on global cooperation and international relations more broadly.
Everyday War Uehling, Greta Lynn

eBook
Everyday War provides an accessible lens through which to understand what noncombatant civilians go through in a country at war. What goes through the mind of a mother who must send her child to ...school across a minefield or the men who belong to groups of volunteer body collectors? In Ukraine, such questions have been part of the daily calculus of life. Greta Uehling engages with the lives of ordinary people living in and around the armed conflict over Donbas that began in 2014 and shows how conventional understandings of war are incomplete. In Ukraine, landscapes filled with death and destruction prompted attentiveness to human vulnerabilities and the cultivation of everyday, interpersonal peace. Uehling explores a constellation of social practices where ethics of care were in operation. People were also drawn into the conflict in an everyday form of war that included provisioning fighters with military equipment they purchased themselves, smuggling insulin, and cutting ties to former friends. Each chapter considers a different site where care can produce interpersonal peace or its antipode, everyday war. Bridging the fields of political geography, international relations, peace and conflict studies, and anthropology, Everyday War considers where peace can be cultivated at an everyday level.
From its roots in revolution and war, Ukraine’s Azov movement has grown from a militia of fringe far-right figures and football hooligans fending off Russian-backed forces into a multipronged social ...movement that has become the envy of the global far right. In this first English-language book on the Azov movement, Michael Colborne explains how Azov came to be and continues to exploit Ukraine’s fractured social and political situation—including the only ongoing war on European soil – to build one of the most ambitious and dangerous far-right movements in the world.
