The Ukrainian Solzhenitsyn:
The Poetry of Vasyl Stus, Part 2

Matthew Raphael Johnson

3,156 words

Part 2 of 3

III.

Solid ground is death; it’s the rule of matter and the mundane; both air and water are the alternative, the boundary between the nominal and the Real it refuses to see. Yet, terms like “desert” or “tundra” refer to the lonely life of non-affirmation. One cannot create a substitute world; civilization is materialization of dominance. Read more …

Part 1 of 3

The Tragedy of Moldova:
Dependency, Globalization, & the Destructive Power of Elite Liberalism

Matthew Raphael Johnson

She is one of the many castaways of the 1990s, the imposition of the “free market,” and the “end of history.” Yet she was an important part of the old USSR. But after the breakup of the empire in 1990–1991, she fared even worse than Ukraine, reaching Fourth World poverty levels. Read more …

Matthew Raphael Johnson

7,366 words

Introduction

In no way can a brief article do any justice to a complex idea like the Ukrainian nation. While this author has dedicated his academic life to these and related topics, its poor treatment in the press and distortion by certain emigre circles calls for a certain clarification.
