Does Nation Building Increase the Strength of Citizen Loyalty? Theoretical and Empirical Investigations of Ukrainian Nationalism
A widespread—yet for the most part untested—proposition about nationalism is that it promotes political legitimacy, and thereby undergirds people's allegiance to their state and their willingness to support and comply with government policies. This article reconsiders the general proposition through an examination of survey data from Ukraine. Using multivariate statistical analysis, the study isolates four dimensions of nationhood and explores ho…
Nation versus class in U kraine
This article evaluates the long‐standing but rarely‐tested proposition that nationalism and nationhood mask the extent of class divisions in a society. Specifically, it examines three possible routes by which state‐nationhood might subjectively mitigate the importance of class. Nationhood may shape people's perception of the magnitude of economic inequalities, their perception of the magnitude of class conflict or their assessment of their own cl…
The legitimacy of foreign intervention in elections
The empirical and theoretical study of the effect of foreign intervention in the electoral processes of states is exceedingly weak. Using insights from the nationalism literature, this article provides a theoretical argument on domestic reactions to foreign interference in a state's internal politics. It then tests the predictions generated by the argument using mass survey data in Ukraine. The article analyses the Ukrainian people's reaction to …
Interest versus Identity
To what extent do economic factors accentuate or mitigate ethno-cultural fault lines in Ukrainian politics? Previous analyses of Ukrainian elections have focused on Ukraine's ethno-cultural regional divide, which splits the Ukrainophone West and Center from the Russian-speaking East and South. A newly-fashioned subnational dataset that includes ethno-linguistic, economic, and electoral data for Ukraine's 225 territorial election districts is used…
Cultural comparisons and their consequences for nationhood in Ukraine
Several theories of nationalism argue that ethnic and regional cultural heterogeneity are a source of conflict and alienation in a state, and therefore impede nation-building. This article tests this assertion with respect to ethnic and regional differences in Ukraine. Using a 2001 mass public opinion survey developed by the author, the article engages in bi-variate and multivariate statistical analysis of the relationship between perceived ethni…
Ukrainian Nation-Building Under Kuchma
Kuchma paid lip service to an ethnically based Ukrainian national identity but made little effort to implement relevant policies
National Identity and Public Support for Political and Economic Reform in Ukraine
This article investigates the impact conceptions of national identity have on mass support for political and economic reform in Ukraine. After laying out the theoretical linkage between national identity and models of political and economic development, it uses a 2001 mass public opinion survey to assess the influence of two competing versions of national identity—Eastern Slavic and Ethnic Ukrainian—on reformist attitudes in Ukraine. Bivariate an…
The contours of civic and ethnic national identification in Ukraine
Exploring the economic basis of nationhood
This article investigates whether and how wealth and economic equality influence the nation-building process. The article is divided into three sections. First, it reviews the theoretical literature on the relationship between a state's economic performance and nationhood. Next, the article organizes arguments on the relationship between economic performance and national identity and unity into four hypotheses and derives testable empirical predi…
The Role of Economic Performance in Ukrainian Nationalism
Nationalist Sentiments and Globalisation Preferences in Five Great Powers
Sources of Civic and Ethnic Nationalism in Ukraine
A vigorous debate is under way in Ukraine over what features do or should form the basis for a state-wide national identity. Instead of a simple battle over the primacy of a civic versus ethnic national identity, much of the controversy is over two variants of ethnic national identity: Ethnic Ukrainian and Eastern Slavic. Four sets of factors have a strong influence on the strength of a civic and the two ethnic variants of national identity at th…
Challenging the Civic/Ethnic and West/East Dichotomies in the Study of Nationalism
This article challenges the widespread notion that civic nationalism is dominant in Western Europe and North America, whereas ethnic nationalism is dominant in Central and Eastern Europe. After laying out the civic-West/ethnic-East argument, it refines the civic/ethnic dichotomy and deduces the state policies that flow from ethnic, cultural, and civic conceptions of national identity. It then employs survey data from 15 countries to measure mass …
Nationalist Sources of International Economic Integration
Most scholars of international relations and nationalism presume that nationalist ideology acts uniformly to hinder international economic integration, globalization, and free trade. This article challenges the conventional wisdom by developing an analytical framework of the incentives majority and minority nationalists face in the realm of foreign economic relations. Defining nationalism as the promotion of the autonomy, unity, and identity of t…
Asymmetrical international integration and Ukrainian national disunity
The cultural foundations of Ukrainian national identity
This article examines the importance of intra- and inter-state cultural comparisons in the construction of national identity in a multi-ethnic country. A theoretical discussion first explores two dimensions of the underdeveloped concept of national identity: content and strength. It is argued that perceptions of cultural similarity among a country's ethnic and ethno-regional groups, and perceptions of both cultural similarity and difference betwe…
National integration and foreign policy in multiethnic states
This article examines the relationship between international and national integration in multiethnic states. Focusing on issues of culture, identity and geography, it derives from the extant literature on national integration a set of interrelated hypotheses that describe how a state's foreign ties affect the degree of unity and solidarity among its constituent ethnic and regional groups. Foreign ties influence the cultural characteristics and et…
Cultures in competition
IN THEIR FOCUS ON ISSUES OF MILITARY SECURITY and political economy the dominant approaches to international relations, realism and liberalism, fail to investigate an issue that for many countries in today's increasingly interdependent world is of critical importance: how ethnic and national cultures penetrate, shape and erode each other.1 In Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union new or newly independent multiethnic states confront the parti…
Competing versus Complementary Identities
The huge Russian diaspora created in the wake of the Soviet Union's collapse creates a great challenge to nation builders throughout the “near abroad.” Especially in Lithuania, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Ukraine, by virtue of their size, Russian populations must be integrated into new political communities where they now have minority status. The building of cohesive, unified nation states requires that the identities and loyalties of these Russians be…
