Феномен советской украинизации, 1920-1930-е годы

This monograph is the first attempt in Russian historiography to analyze the national policy of the Bolsheviks with regard to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic in 1920-1930s, a process that was called "ukrainization". This phenomenon is considered on a wide social and political background as an element of complex maneuvering of the soviet leadership both in Moscow and in the republic itself. The book reveals the premises, the stages and the results of this policy, tracing back its connection with the general course of the party and state leadership. It also demonstrates how the national policy of the Bolsheviks has been perceived by a wide strata of Ukraine's population, its intellectuals, officials, workers and farmers.
