Ukraine's tumultuous history has left it standing on unstable
ground, wrought with the devastation of the 20th Century's wars,
famines, and other struggles. Today, life in Ukraine is moving
forward, stepping out of the shadows of Communism and into a
modern, urban, and multicultural light, finally gaining for itself
a sense of national identity. Now a cultural hotspot that serves as
a crossroads between Europe and Asia, Ukraine's traditions of
yesterday are evolving into today's daily life and customs. High
school and undergraduate students will have the opportunity to
delve into Ukraine's modern society by looking at its religious
practices, language conflicts, gender issues, education policies,
and media censorship struggles, as well as its cuisine, holidays,
literature, music, and performing arts. A thorough and unique
investigation of this young country, Culture and Customs of Ukraine
is an absolute must-have for high school, public, and undergraduate
library bookshelves. Chapters include: BLChapter 1: Context
