The Holodomor Through the Eyes of Ukraine's Scholars: Essays on the Famine-Genocide of 1932-1933 in Soviet Ukraine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781894865708)

Since Ukraine's independence in 1991, the study of the 1932-33 famine in Soviet Ukraine (the Holodomor) has resulted in thousands of publications by Ukrainian authors, both popular and scholarly. Yet the international academic community is largely unfamiliar with these works. This volume of twelve translated scholarly essays makes available to a wider English-language readership a selection of writings by Ukraine's scholars and will be of value not only to those who research the Holodomor but also to those interested more broadly in Ukrainian and Soviet history as well as famine and genocide. Most of the topics addressed in this volume have received little attention in English-language historiography and range from the role of Soviet elites in the Holodomor to the mobilization of students to work in the countryside. Among the articles collected here are contributions from established scholars, lesser-known Ukrainian historians, and a team of demographers that includes one American.
