Ukraine looks back on a long history of protests, revolts and revolutions. The fight against Soviet and Russian imperialism has been part of Ukrainian civil society long before the infamous 24th of February 2022. There were dissident movements during Soviet times. There were the peaceful protests of the so-called “Orange Revolution”. And there was the Euromaidan. Last November marked the 10th anniversary of these protests which took place on the central square of Kyiv. We have chosen to take this occasion as a base to look back on the complex history of the Ukrainian civil movement of the last 40 years.
The historian and activist Vladyslav Starodubtsev will give us his thoughts on the Soviet dissident movement in Ukraine live from Kyiv. His input will be followed by the talk of the scholar in exile Daria Vystavkina on the Euromaidan and Sofiya Bohoslavets on the current civil society in Ukraine. This will lead into a general discussion about the last 40 years of the Ukrainian civil movements with the three aforementioned. At the end the discussion will be opened for questions from the audience.
The event is a co-operation between Archiv der sozialen Demokratie and Universität Bonn.
