Vielvölkerreich Russland
Russia's external and internal borders are a product of Soviet nationality policy. Its polyethnic character goes back to the pre-revolutionary Tsarist Empire. For the most part, the federation consists of the territory of Muscovy, which was settled by a majority of Russians, but also other ethnic groups. The areas with non-Russian populations were annexed through military conquest, economic development, agreements on loose sovereignty of the tsar…
Raus aus dem Abseits
Andreas Kappeler, a historian of Eastern Europe, looks back on his personal discovery of Ukraine as a nation at a time when the mere mention of the word “nation” was considered disreputable. He explains where the stereotype of Ukrainians as nationalists and anti-Semites comes from. In his view, however, the widespread Western disinterest in Ukraine has been overcome, and Ukraine is now recognized as an equal subject within the international commu…
Revisionismus und Drohungen
In July 2021, the Kremlin published an essay “On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians”. Its authorship is attributed to Vladimir Putin. This lends the text special weight. In terms of historiography, it builds on the Great Russian and Soviet interpretation of the history of Russia and Ukraine. Politically, it provides insights into Putin’s thinking: a jumble of Soviet patriotism, imperial and Russian ethno-nationalism, and revisionist …
Das historische Erbe der Ukraine
Knowledge of history provides orientation. For historical heritage co-determines the present and the future. History can be analysed as a bundle of internal and external factors. For Ukraine, eleven elements of its historical heritage are of particular importance. They range from its natural geographic conditions via Orthodoxy, which was adopted in the 10th century, to the catastrophes of the 20th century. Other elements are related to the shapin…
Das Echo des Holodomor
News about the famine of 1932/33 that raged in Ukraine, Kazakhstan and southern Russia, was suppressed by the Soviet government, which banned the publication of any information about the catastrophe and denied its existence. An analysis of the contemporary press in Austria reveals that despite this, the general public did have access to broad information about the famine, which was even reported in local newspapers. The Secretary General of the “…
Ungleiche Brüder
Russen und Ukrainer bezeichnen sich seit Jahrhunderten als Brudervölker, wobei sich die Russen in der Rolle des großen Bruders sehen. Dieses Buch erzählt die Geschichte dieser ungleichen Brüder als Wechselspiel von Verflechtungen und Entflechtungen. Nicht zuletzt trägt es zum Verständnis des aktuellen russisch-ukrainischen Konflikts bei
The Russian Empire
The "national question" and how to impose control over its diverse ethnic identities has long posed a problem for the Russian state. This major survey of Russia as a multi-ethnic empire spans the imperial years from the sixteenth century to 1917, with major consideration of the Soviet phase. It asks how Russians incorporated new territories, how they were resisted, what the character of a multi-ethnic empire was and how, finally, these issues rel…
Kleine Geschichte der Ukraine
Dieses Buch informiert über die wichtigsten Ereignisse und Zusammenhänge der ukrainischen Geschichte. Es setzt der vorherrschenden russozentrischen Perspektive eine ukrainische gegenüber und überprüft gleichzeitig kritisch ukrainische nationale Mythen. Dabei wird nicht nur die Geschichte der Ukrainer vom Mittelalter bis zur Gegenwart dargestellt; auch die Geschichte der in der Ukraine lebenden Polen, Russen, Juden und Deutschen wird berücksichtig…
Ukraine and Russia
The legacy of the tsarist Empire and the Soviet Union is one of the crucial factors for an understanding and an explanation of current affairs in the post-Soviet space. This is especially true for Ukraine and for Russian–Ukrainian relations. Russia regards Ukraine as a part of its own strategic orbit, while many Ukrainians want to liberate themselves from the Russian hegemony and advocate a closer cooperation with the European Union. This controv…
Die Kosaken
Im 15. bis 17. Jahrhundert formierten sich an den Flüssen der Steppengrenze die egalitären Kriegergemeinschaften der Dnjepr-, Don- und Terek-Kosaken. Sie spielten in Polen-Litauen und im Moskauer Staat als Krieger und als Rebellen eine hervorragende Rolle. Die Anführer aller frühneuzeitlichen Volksaufstände in Osteuropa waren Kosaken. Im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert «zähmte» das Russländische Imperium die Kosaken, die als privilegierter Militärstand t…
Spaces of Entanglement
Spaces of Entanglement Andreas Kappeler (bio) The imperial turn, which for the past 25 years has directed the attention of historians toward empires, may have lost its first impetus, but as the journals Ab Imperio and Kritika as well as recent collective volumes and research projects have shown, it is by no means spent. The collapse of the Soviet Union initially revived interest in Edward Gibbon's question about "the decline and fall" of empires,…
Южный и Восточный Фронтир Россиив XVI – XVIII Веках
The concept of the “frontier,” conceived by F.J. Turner for North America and applied to Eurasia by O. Lattimore and others, does not refer to a state border, but to a transitional zone between different geographic, socio-economic, political, religious and cultural spaces. From the15th to 18th centuries, the Russian steppe frontier in the south and southeast was a relatively stable military frontier between the sedentary Christian Russians and th…
