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.

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.

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 document discusses issues related to regulating the legal status of persons missing during the armed conflict in Ukraine and makes recommendations. It summarizes that over 1,000 people have gone missing during the conflict but current legislation does not define procedures for granting legal status to missing persons or support their relatives. It recommends creating a coordinating commission of government and non-government groups involved in tracing missing persons, as well as an executive body to directly aid applicants and relatives of the missing.
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.

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. Key factors that determine contemporary interethnic relations in Crimea are the historical formation of the population's ethnic composition, dynamics of ethnic settlement patterns, current migration trends, ethnic group constitutionalization, and interactions between the largest ethnic groups.
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.
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.
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.

1. THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT AND NGO'S IN THE SYSTEM OF ETHNO-
POLITICAL MANAGEMENT IN UKRAINE
Ethno-political management is a part of the system of governmental
management, which has controlling-regulatory functions in the sphere of inter-ethnic
relations. The main functions of the ethno-political management are: 1) the
legislative provision of processes of ethno-national development; 2) control over the
realization of laws and other normative acts in the sphere of interethnic relations; 3)
formation of the structure of all-Ukrainian, regional and local organs of management
and organizing of interaction on the vertical (central-regional-local) and horizontal
(local to local) levels of the activities of these organs.
The activity of central, regional and local organs of executive power is
determined by the laws of Ukraine, decrees of the President (he or she confirms the
regulations of the central organ of management), and regulations of departments in
the structure of regional (local) administrations (confirmed by the head of the
corresponding administration).
The main methods of ethno-political management in Ukraine are:
1) monitoring and prognosis of ethno-social processes;
2) administrative-organizational regulation (through laws, decrees, special
resolutions) of ethno-national development
3) elaboration of models of management standards in the sphere of state ethno-
policy;
4) financial support for ethno-cultural development of national minorities;
5) promotion of activities of minority organizations.
The goal of the ethno-political management in Ukraine is for the realization of
the rights of ethnic minorities to be declared in national and international legislations,
the prevention of ethnic conflicts, the solving of conflict situations due to ethnic
backgrounds, and the formation of the integral type of ethno-social development of
society.
Within the structure of ethno-political management of Ukraine there are three
aspects:
1) operational (administrative);
2. 2) implementational (elaboration of methods and means, which provide
realization of state ethno-policy);
3) non-governmental (NGO’s), which influence the formation and realization of
state policy in the sphere of interethnic relations.
1.1 THE FIRST ASPECT (OPERATIONAL) INCLUDES:
1) Central organs of the executive power: the coordinated state organ
Department for Nationalities and Migration in the structure of the Ministry
of Justice1); the section for education of national minorities in the Ministry
of Education, and a Section in the Ministry of Science and Arts.
In the system of the executive power of the Autonomous Republic of
Crimea, there is a Republican Committee for Nationalities and Deported Persons.
2) Organs of regional and local executive power (departments, sections) within
the structure of regional administrations and the administrations of several
cities and towns with multiethnic population (for example, Kyiv,
Sevastopol, Ushgorod etc.). The number of staff of the structures mentioned
above is about 100 persons.
2.2 THE SECOND ASPECT (ETHNO-POLITICAL MANAGEMENT)
INCLUDES:
I. State programmes, which are being realized in different spheres of state-
ethno- policy:
1. The complex programme «Ukrainian language».
2. A programme of adaptation and integration into Ukrainian society of
deported Crimean Tatars and other nationalities, the revival and development of
their cultures and education.
1
It should be mentioned that such an organ in the system of Ukraine's executive power has existed since 1991: first as
Committee for Nationalities; 1993 — Ministry for Nationalities and Migration; 1994 — Ministry for Nationalities,
Migration and Cults; 1995 — Ministry for Nationalities and Migration; 1996 — State Committee for Nationalities and
Migration; 2000 — Department for Nationalities and Migration, Ministry of Justice.
3. 3. A complex plan of measures towards development of culture of national
minorities in Ukraine up until 2001.
4. A programme of preservation of historical-cultural heritage and
promotion of ethno-social development of Crimean Karaite and Crymchacks.
5. The State programme «Ukraine-2010» (includes section as to
education and culture of national minorities.
II. Special programmes (for example, «Children of Ukraine»).
III. Regional programmes (for example «Programme of covering the ethno-
cultural needs of national minorities in Trans-Carpathian region».
IV. Special activities: congresses, forums, meetings etc: as example, the
First Congress of Nationalities, 1991.
The results, of ethno-policy in Ukraine brought about through the ethno-
political management mentioned above can be seen in different spheres of ethno-
national life. Presently, there are about 2 400 Russian schools, 11 Moldavian, 6
Crimean Tartar, 65 Hungarian, 3 Polish, 10 Rumanian and 5 Jewish schools. In
addition to these essentially minority schools there are 2399 mixed schools in
Ukraine.
It should be taken into account that the state finances definite measures which
are implemented in the framework of the all-Ukrainian programmes on educational
issues (the maintenance of schools with teaching in ethnic languages), culture,
information, radio and television, book publication.
As far as the publication of books in ethnic languages in Ukraine is concerned,
the Main Specialized Editorial Office for the Literature in the Languages of National
Minorities of Ukraine has been functioning since 1992. Since it began, it has
published literature (textbooks, books on social and political issues, fiction) in
Russian, Hungarian, German, Polish, Rumanian, Jewish, Gagauz, Modern Greek,
Slovak, Crimean Tartar, Byelorussian, Azerbaijanian, Bulgarian, Czech, Lithuanian
and other languages (in 20 languages of the national minorities), in total about 450
book titles, the most significant group of which are the textbooks for the schools with
ethnic language teaching.
4. Due to the complicated economic situation, such support of the ethno-cultural
life of national minorities at least reflects the desire of the state to keep to its stated
intention (declarations, laws, decrees of the executive bodies) to stimulate the ethno-
political renaissance of all ethnic groups in Ukraine. This thesis is confirmed by facts
from other spheres of social life. In Ukraine today there are about 60 newspapers
published for national minorities. The Supreme Council's newspaper «The Voice of
Ukraine» now publishes 6 additional newspapers together with ethno- cultural
societies. In particular, in Bulgarian – «Roden Krai», in Polish – «Dziennik
Kijowski», in Jewish – «Jewish news», in Armenian – «Aragatz», in Rumanian –
«Concordia», in Russian – «The Voice of Crimea» for the Autonomous Republic of
Crimea.
The circulation of these newspapers ranges from 5 000 to 20 000 copies. These
supplementary newspapers have proved to be stable and popular editions of national
minorities. According to the official data, the total broadcast volume in the national
minorities' languages in television in recent years was about 1300 hours, on the radio
about 2000 hours.
The libraries and the museums are an important source of protection by the
State and development of the special ethno-cultural features of the national
minorities. Thus, 367 libraries of Ukraine contain literature sections in the languages
of national minorities, and this number does not include the Russian literature
libraries as the Russian library service comprises 24 382 general and universal
libraries with a total of more than 240 million copies of books and magazines. In 120
museums of Ukraine (without Kyiv), national minorities' halls are open to the public,
and about 1100 historic and cultural memorials can be found. Historic and cultural
memorials of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea make up another 10 000, and
almost all of them belong to the national minorities.
Specialists of national minorities are receiving education at 11 universities, 20
pedagogical universities and colleges.
5. 1.3. THE THIRD ASPECT (ETHNO-POLITICAL MANAGEMENT)
The third aspect is connected with activities of NGO's, as a rule, of national
minorities.
There are 429 such NGO’s: 26 of all-Ukrainian status, others are regional and
local. 38 national minorities have their own organizations. Some associations
recently created, for example, include: «Association of Jewish organizations and
communities», «Association of Bulgarian national-cultural societies» etc. The legal
framework of activities of NGO’s of national minorities is determined by the Law of
Ukraine «On Associations of Citizens».
The chief aim of NGO activities is to provide the needs of ethno-cultural
development of national minorities and to encourage tolerant interactions between all
sections of ethno-national structure of Ukrainian society, the building up of public
opinion and finding ways of influencing decision-making by organs of legislation
and executive power. NGO's try to reach these goals through daily organizational
activities (meetings of associations contacts with representatives of executive power)
and through congresses, conferences, seminars, «round tables», the drawing of
attention of officials and public opinion to the status of national minorities and
through resolutions, proposing ways of solving their social, ethno-cultural and legal
problems. In the educational sphere, several measures which took place during the
last three years should be mentioned: All-Ukrainian conferences and seminars
"Contemporary Ukrainian school in multiethnic regions", ''Education and languages
of national minorities of Ukraine in the context of The Hague and Oslo
recommendations", "Education of national minorities in Ukraine", "Educational
rights of national minorities". The resolutions produced by the conferences are taken
into consideration during the decision-making process of the Ministry of Education
and Science.
The results of cooperation between governmental and non-governmental
organizations in the sphere of ethno-cultural development and education can be
illustrated by several examples: on the initiative of NGO's of national minorities,
regional ethnic festivals took places as the all-Ukrainian festival of national
6. minorities "We all are your children, Ukraine"; the Hungarian theatre (Beregovo),
Trans-Carpathian region, Roma theatre "Romance»" (Kyiv), Roma exposition in the
state museum of Bila Tserkva, the Institute of Hungarian language teaching
(Beregovo).
A very important part of the NGO's influence is their interaction with organs
of executive power on all-Ukrainian, regional and local levels. An effective factor in
this interaction during the last three years was the Council of Representatives of the
Civic Communities of the National Minorities attached to the State Committee of
Ukraine for Nationalities and Migration. Its membership included the leaders of the
ethnic organizations that have an all-Ukrainian status (23 members of the Council). It
held twice-yearly sessions and discussed the acute problems of national minorities,
such as desirable additions and changes to the Act of Ukraine on National
Minorities, the concept of the national minorities, the draft of the State Programme
for the Development of the Cultures of the National Minorities, the financing of the
activities of the national minorities' organizations, etc.
Today, NGO's have a new opportunity to strengthen their influence on
decision-making in the sphere of ethno-national developments in Ukraine due to the
inauguration of a special consultative-deliberative organ by the President of Ukraine.
Its aim is to promote the increase of the role of NGO's of national minorities in the
social life of the Ukrainian society and the preservation and the development of their
ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious originality. The Council of the
Representatives of Public Organization of National Minorities was established by the
Decree of the President (April 2000). This Council includes 33 Members.
The main goals of the Council are:
1. To present proposals for the formation of state ethno-policy, the protection of
the rights of national minorities, their participation in state building;
2. The analysis of the situation, tendencies and perspectives of ethno-national
development of Ukraine, of national minorities status;
3. The analysis of bills and decrees of the President of Ukraine and of the
Cabinet of Ministers, programmes, adopted by central organs of executive
7. power, connected with national minorities and presentation of proposals for
their improvement;
4. The elaboration of proposals for the ethno-cultural development of national
minorities for implementation of international agreements, adopted by the
Verhovna Rada (Supreme Council);
5. The presentation of proposals for conferences, forums, symposiums, to be held
at state level;
6. The promotion the contacts between national minorities of Ukraine and their
homelands.
The establishment of the Ombudsman's Institute in Ukraine is a positive sign
for the implementation of national minorities rights and the NGO’s influence on this
process. The first Ombudsman's report on human rights in Ukraine in 1999 contains
numerous proposals (initiated by NGO's) for improvement of the status of national
minorities.
We have discussed the mechanisms involved in the satisfaction of ethno-
cultural needs of national minorities with the support of NGO participation. One of
the main topics is education. We are convinced of the fact that educational problems
can be successfully solved only in the context of the satisfaction of ethno-cultural
needs; that is why we felt it necessary to cover the entire system of ethno-political
management.
2. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT
To reach the proper level of satisfaction of educational needs, the following
steps should be taken:
1) identification of needs, especially among the most disadvantaged ethnic groups
(for example Roma, Gagauz, Crimean Tatars). This can be done by conducting
special sociological research;
2) elaboration of programmes of social integration of disadvantaged groups with
reinforcement of the role of qualitative education;
8. 3) the installation of a system of tolerance in interethnic relations in the school
environment through the teaching of the history and culture of different national
minorities (introducing special courses, programmes);
4) the preparation of textbooks on the history and culture of Ukraine's ethnic
groups, human rights and rights of ethnic minorities;
5) the elaboration of programmes for the education of specialists for schools,
classes for national minorities, for ethno-cultural organizations;
6) the use of different forms of satisfaction of educational needs, (for example,
ethnic week-end schools);
7) the improvement of the system of local ethnic management through the
cooperation of local administration, NGO’s, and of national minorities on the basis of
introducing different cultural and educational multi-ethnic programmes;
8) the establishment in Ukraine, under the auspices of the Council of Europe, a
scientific-methodological centre for the educational problems of national minorities
of CIS.
