In Perogies and Politics, Rhonda Hinther explores the
twentieth-century history of the Ukrainian left in Canada from the
standpoint of the women, men, and children who formed and fostered
it. For twentieth-century leftist Ukrainians, culture and politics
were inextricably linked. The interaction of Ukrainian
socio-cultural identity with Marxist-Leninism resulted in one of
the most dynamic national working-class movements Canada has ever
known. The Ukrainian left's success lay in its ability to meet the
needs of and speak in meaningful, respectful, and empowering ways
to its supporters' experiences and interests as individuals and as
members of a distinct immigrant working-class community. This
offered to Ukrainians a radical social, cultural, and political
alternative to the fledgling Ukrainian churches and right-wing
Ukrainian nationalist movements. Hinther's colourful and in-depth
work reveals how left-wing Ukrainians were affected by changing
social, economic, and political forces and how they in turn
responded to and challenged these forces.
