Winning Freedom: Ukraine 1989-1991

This curated collection dedicated to Ukraine explores three years of struggle for independence, presenting key events in this process: glasnost, social movements, student hunger strikes, political transformations, economic collapse, mass strikes and rallies, and much more. We have selected a diverse, yet representative, fraction, to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of what kind of documents make up our collection. Based on the documents, we demonstrate how the political course and rhetor in the country transformed, and how the desire for independence of Ukraine acquired a massive, national character.
