Product Description

This book argues that – contrary to contemporary Lithuanian nationalist rhetoric – Lithuanian nationalism was modern and socially constructed in the period from the emergence of the Lithuanian national movement in the late nineteenth century to the birth of an independent state in 1918. The book brings into sharp focus those aspects of the history of Lithuania that earlier commentators had not systematically explored: it shows how, in this period, the nascent political elite fashioned its own and the emerging nation’s identity. Moreover, factors such as the elite’s social isolation, educational experience, marital strategies and narrowly based, fragmented and uncoordinated political activities were crucial factors in shaping identity and nation-building. It demonstrates how the elite was often in conflict with the peasantry, the religious establishment and other ethnic groups, and how critical considerations such as class, religion, displacement and ethnicity – rather than national ideology – were. The book’s conclusion that Lithuanian nationalism is a construct emerging from modern social forces is highly significant for understanding nationalism and contemporary political developments in Eastern Europe more generally.

Excerpt: Stanisaw Narutowicz (Lithuanian: ·)) (September 2, 1862, in Brvikiai , near Teliai , then in the Russian Empire (now in Lithuania) December 31, 1932, in Kaunas, Lithuania) was a Polish-Lithuanian lawyer and politician, one of the twenty signatories of the Act of Independence of Lithuania and brother to the first president of Poland Gabriel Narutowicz. He was also the only Polish member of the Taryba, the provisional Lithuanian parliament formed in the later stages of World War I. The Narutowicz family, which had its roots in Lithuanian nobility, received a coat of arms in 1413, changing its name from Noruiai (singular Narutis) to Narutowicz in the process. He was a self-declared Samogitian, Lithuanian and a Pole. His parents, Jan Narutowicz and Wiktoria née Szczepkowska were landowners and ran a manor. His father took part in the January Uprising of 1863, which was a revolt that took place in the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth against Tsarist oppression. While studying at the Liepja gymnasium and later at the St. Petersburg University, he collected Lithuanian folklore and distributed Lithuanian language books whene...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=2561360 ...

Excerpt: The list gives the composition of the governments of the Republic of Lithuania from 1918 to 1940. During that period Lithuania was an independent republic. From 1918 to December 1926 it was a democracy and the governments were formed from members of various parties. After the coup of 1926, Lithuania was ruled by authoritarian Antanas Smetona and his party, the Lithuanian National Union. Only the last two governments included members from the opposition. Sources sometimes give conflicting data about the ministers, especially from the early governments. That is because those governments were short-lived, formed during the time of war, and not well documented. ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=7625418 ... Read more

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! During World War II, Lithuania was occupied by the Soviet Union (1940-1941), Nazi Germany (1941-1944), and the Soviet Union again in 1944. Resistance during this period took many forms. Significant parts of the resistance were formed by Polish and Soviet forces, some of which fought with Lithuanian collaborators. This article presents a summary of the organizations, persons and actions involved. February 16, the date that Lithuania first declared its independence in 1918, played an important symbolic role during this period. The call for volunteers for the Lithuanian Territorial Defense Force, the VLIK declaration of independence, and the LLKS declaration of independence were all made on February 16. This day has become a national holiday in Lithuania. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
This text presents a specific interest in analyzing the role of the elites as a key factor for democratic rule and policy changes. The analysis is based on data from structured interviews with around 300 elite persons in eight elite groups - namely parliament, bureaucracy, political parties/movements, state enterprises, private business, intellectuals, the judicial system and local government. In order to put the elites in perspective the author has also conducted opinion surveys asking some of the same questions among representative samples of the populations in the three countries. Comparing these three rather similar states gives possibilities for singling out conditions for specific national developments in elite structure and policies. ... Read more

Product Description
Looks at the process of state-building in Ukraine from a political economy and institutional perspective.Weak and distorted state capacity has come to be widely recognized as a key obstacle to successful transformation.However, so far little systematic research has been carried out on state capacity and on how to explain its development.The book provides new insights in considering the evolution of Ukraine since 1992, offering an in-depth view of institutional development in crucial areas.It draws comparisons with developments in Belarus, Lithuania, and Russia (based on field research).To capture the process of state-building empirically, focuses on the extraction and expenditure systems which are a central pillar of state capacity and also a central link between citizens and the state.The book also sheds light on how Ukraine's potential 'second transition' currently under way will have an impact on its institutional system. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Gives great insight but skip the first 4 chapters!
To start with the conclusion - for anyone that wants insight into the political and economical development i Ukraine, Russia, Lithuania, Belarus or the Former Soviet republics in general, this is a very interesting and useful book to read. Be aware that the book's main focus is on Ukraine (102 pages), While the other countries is given from 30-41 pages each. The comparable approach also makes it useful for getting an introduction to the difference between the former Baltic states and the other former Soviet republics and the similarities and differences in the 3 new Eastern Slavonic nations.

One important weekness of the book is that it spends 78 pages in the introduction to go through a theoretical framework that is hardly interesting, hardly necesary to to read the rest of the book and hardly gives any crucial insights. The poublisher has failed in their role as an editor by not interfering on this point. My advice to the reader is to simply skip theese first 4 chapters and begin on chapter 5. Othervise the risk is great that you will stop reading beofre the real interesting stuff begins.

If you want to be critical one can ask, why the book have picked theese 4 former Soviet republics instead of analysing all 15 of them. As the result of this chice of sample is quite successsful there is hardly any need for it though. I can even imagine that for instance adding the 3rd Baltic republic to the analysis of the 2 former, would give limited new insights to the *comparative* study that is the aim of the book and that the reader might would find himself repeating many of the same information 3 times. Another possible approach could be to compare Moldova and Romania or Poland with Western Belarus and Western Ukraine in order to analyze different trajectories of development of something that historically have been the same country (Romania and Poland respectively). The author have successfully chosen to do otherwise though.

The author has included a comprehensive statistical material in the appendix in the book. One thing that have kept me awake at night is that the performance for some of the Central Asian countries looks too good to be true. Can it really be the case that the economical growth of Uzbekistan since 1989 (115 i 2004, if 1989 is 100) is better than Estinia's (112) while Turkmenistan's growth compared to 1989 is of 112, the same as Estonia?

The inflation-problem colud probably be covered in more depth. The appendix should definately have included a table with inflation rates. Further, former Russian Prime minister Gaydar in a seminar at Carnegie once put the inflation in Russia in the 90s into perspective by comparing to the last time Europe saw inflation of this propotions - in Germany in the 30s, where Adolf Hitler came to power by democratic means with what would follow - also about 15 years since democracy was introduced. The economic situation in the 90s - and the inflation in particular - is crucial for interpreting the political situation and statebuilding in particulary Russia and Ukraine. In this context it also appears that thing have turned out quite ok, compared to the Germany scenario.

Theese comments explains why I have given 4 and not 5 stars.
