Yak zrozumity ukraintsiv: kroskulturnyi pohliad - Maryna Starodubska

Why is corruption in Ukraine (falsely) considered “intractable”? What is the reason why we elect certain types of politicians and distrust the state? Why do public discussions in Ukraine so often turn into “shit”? Is it really “done” here (in fact, it isn't) and are systemic changes based on Western models impossible in Ukraine? Cross-cultural science decomposes national mentalities into types that can be compared and components that can be analyzed without stereotypes and unnecessary emotions. This is the first text of its kind by a Ukrainian author that explains to a wide readership who we are, why we are the way we are, and how to live with it.
