Research project: Identifying the Discursive Roots of the Idea of Ukraine’s Alleged ‘East-West’ Divide

This research project addresses the problem of Ukraine’s regional and cultural cleavages and their representation in Western political and expert discourses. The study will trace the conceptual roots of the idea of Ukraine’s alleged domestic ‘east-west’ divide in these European and American discourses as an important environment shaping and reinforcing this stereotype.
