Ukraines ethnic minorities between politics and realityyevtukh
This document discusses Ukraine's ethnic minorities and the country's policies toward them. It notes that Ukraine has over 120 ethnic groups and its population can be considered multiethnic. It then outlines some key aspects of what constitutes an ethnic minority, including shared descent, culture, and identity. It describes Ukraine's laws guaranteeing equal rights and supporting minority language and cultural development. However, it argues that strong ethnic minority structures are also important for preserving distinctiveness. Many of Ukraine's minorities are still establishing institutional structures after Soviet policies of forming a single Soviet people. Coordinating with ethnic homelands could help minorities and integrate them without conflict into Ukrainian society.
1) The migration situation in Ukraine is complex due to various political, economic, ethnic, and social factors both within and outside the country. It remains difficult and problems are increasing.
2) Ukraine experiences both legal and illegal immigration, including refugees from conflicts in neighboring countries and economic migrants. It also struggles with emigration of educated citizens and illegal immigration activities like human trafficking.
3) Improving Ukraine's socioeconomic conditions could increase legal and illegal immigration by making it a more attractive destination, further complicating the migration situation. The government is working to develop effective migration legislation and management systems to regulate migration flows.
This document discusses ethnic problems and regulations in Ukraine. It notes that Ukraine has a multi-ethnic population composition, like many other countries. Discrimination and inequality faced by some ethnic and immigrant groups is caused by factors like unsatisfactory socioeconomic development, weak social infrastructure for minorities, and deficient legislation regarding minority rights. Some groups that sometimes feel uncomfortable or experience discrimination include Bulgarians, Armenians, Gagauzians, Greeks, Jews, Karaims, Crimean Tatars, Krymchaks, Germans, Roma, Russians, Romanians, Hungarians, and immigrants from Asia, Africa and the Caucasus. Problems occur in legislative, socio-economic, socio-humanitarian, public/political,

New ethnicities – New problems. Immigrants in Ukrainian Social Spaceyevtukh

It begins by establishing the timeliness of studying this issue given trends of increasing globalization and ethnic diversity. It then seeks to define key terms like "Ukrainian social space" and "new ethnicities" to provide context.

The purpose is to understand challenges immigrants pose for Ukrainian society and seek integrative models for development.
Ethnic Problems on Ukrainian Space: Actuality and Regulationsyevtukh
Volodymyr YEVTUKH discusses ethnic problems in Ukraine and argues that discrimination exists against certain groups. He identifies several ethnic groups that face disadvantages, including Bulgarians, Armenians, Gagausians, Greeks, Jews, Karaims, Crimean Tatars, Krymchaks, Germans, Roma, Russians, Romanians, Hungarians, and immigrants from Asia, Africa and the Caucasus.

In particular, he notes high unemployment and issues with privatization have negatively impacted returned deportees, while lack of education in minority languages presents challenges. Overall
This document discusses new ethnicities and problems faced by immigrants in Ukrainian social space. It provides background on the growing immigrant population in Ukraine, which makes up around 9% of the total population.

It finds that Ukrainians generally have a low level of tolerance towards these groups, as measured by social distance indexes. The document also outlines socioeconomic challenges faced by immigrants, including lack of access to the labor market, underemployment, housing issues, and difficulties with cultural adaptation.
This document lists 46 monographs, manuals, and handbooks as well as 49 articles published by Professor Volodymyr Yevtukh on topics related to ethnicity, migration, diaspora, and ethnosociology.

Intercultural Dialogue: Efficient Construct of the Integrative Development of...yevtukh

The dynamics of interethnic relations in crimeayevtukh
This document analyzes the dynamics of interethnic relations in Crimea. It discusses the ethnic diversity of Crimea, which has over 100 ethnic groups and the six most populous being Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Crimean Tatars, Jews, and Tatars. It provides data on the population sizes of various ethnic groups from censuses between 1970-1989, showing increases and decreases.

Prospects of ukraines cooperation with european and transatlantic structures ...yevtukh
1) The document discusses Ukraine's prospects for cooperation with European and transatlantic structures in the context of Ukrainian identities. It argues that identities of a population strongly influence attitudes toward integration with these structures.
2) It defines key terms like "cooperation", "identity", and outlines different types of identities including spatial, political, social and cultural. National and civic identities are most important for analyzing public opinion on joining international organizations.
3) Multiple factors shape identities in Ukraine, like ethnic composition, migration, political influences. Understanding identities is crucial for assessing public support for closer ties with groups like the EU and NATO.
This document discusses the history and demographics of national minorities in Ukraine. It describes how various ethnic groups came to settle in different regions of Ukraine over centuries, including Russians, Belarusians, Poles, Bulgarians, Jews, Moldovans, Hungarians, Romanians, Greeks, Armenians, and Crimean Tartars. It provides population statistics on these groups from censuses in 1979 and 1989. The largest national minorities are Russians, who make up over 11% of the population, and are concentrated in eastern and southern Ukraine. Belarusians and Poles also have significant populations in Ukraine.
Koreans in ethnicnational population structure of ukraineyevtukh
The document discusses the Korean ethnic community in Ukraine in the context of changes to Ukraine's ethnic-national population structure and ethnic renaissance. It analyzes whether Koreans can be considered a national minority based on criteria like ethnic origin, population size, citizenship, compact settlement areas, and efforts to preserve ethnic identity and culture. While Koreans immigrated to Ukraine recently, the document argues they can now be viewed as a national minority due to establishing communities, organizations to maintain their culture, and constituting a small but distinct ethnic group with Ukrainian citizenship.
Ethnic minorities in Ukraine have experienced a revival since independence in 1991, with growing ethnic self-awareness and participation in social, economic, and political life. This is evidenced by increases in minority populations between censuses from 1989 to 2001, the formation of over 1,300 civic organizations, and growth in schools teaching minority languages. However, this revival has also led to tensions, as minorities strive for autonomy and separatism, and compete for influence, causing issues between groups like Crimean Tatars and Russians. To manage tensions, Ukraine needs effective ethnic cultural management, ethnic cultural competence, and intercultural education to foster understanding between groups.
The Ukraine has experienced large migrations of people throughout its history. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, over 200,000 Ukrainians emigrated to places like the US, Canada, and Argentina due to poverty and political discrimination under Austrian-Hungarian rule. After World War 2 and the fall of the Soviet Union, migration increased further as Ukrainians left unsatisfied with economic and political conditions or due to conflicts. Surveys in the 1990s found that over 10% wanted to permanently emigrate and over 50% would temporarily work abroad. While intentions to emigrate were high, actual emigration numbers were lower due to political and bureaucratic barriers. Ukraine also experiences transit migration as people pass through on their way to Western countries.
