The post-Soviet Ukraine has gone through two full revolutionary cycles (1991-2004, 2005- 2014). Contemporary revolutionary processes are connected with the ideas and practices of 1917 and with the specific political system that Ukraine developed in mid-1990s.

In this lecture, Prof. Minakov will provide his answers on what revolution is, how 1991 Soviet bourgeois revolutions were connected to the Revolution of 1917, how post-Soviet Ukraine’s political system demands revolutionary situations, and how they lead to attempts of establishing authoritarianism?
