The objective of this English-language (late) summer school is to introduce students to the transformations that took place in Ukraine before and after the 2004 Orange Revolution from various perspectives: political, economic, social, and cultural. Additionally the course provides participants with a general idea of "post-Soviet society," its main features and development dynamics, thus establishing a framework for understanding other societies of this type. The teaching will involve English-speaking political scientists, historians, economists, culturologists, and sociologists, mainly from the staff of the Mohyla Academy. The course will include lectures and workshops, in one way or another, related to the following topics: Ukraine between Democracy and Authoritarianism; Ukraine's Path to and after the Orange Revolution; Ukraine and Its Relationship to the European Union; Ukraine and Its Relationship to Russia; Ukraine's Transformation in Comparative Perspective; Ukraine's Economy Before and After the World Financial Crisis; Ukraine's Coming to Term with Its Past; Ukraine's Post-Soviet Cultural Life; Ukraine's Social Change and Modernization Since 1991; Ukraine and the Question of Gender Equality; Ukraine and the Challenge of Ecological Change; Ukraine After Chernobyl; and, possibly, other similar topics.
