To many observers, the Orange Revolution was a shock, and the stolen elections a recent development. However, both the election fraud and the effort to topple the government of Leonid Kuchma emerged from political dynamics that had appeared in earlier Ukrainian elections.In this path breaking volume, leading scholars place Ukraine?s 2004 Orange Revolution in the longer perspective of Ukraine?s post-Soviet electoral politics. Covering both presidential and parliamentary elec-tions over the entire post-Soviet period, the chapters clarify the man-ner in which earlier elections had emerged as part of the battle for power in Ukraine well before 2004. The opposition that came to power in 2004 had also won the 2002 elections and had developed its strategies during opposition protests that had been catalyzed by the Kuchmagate crisis in 2000. The evolution of the dynamics that led to the fraudulent 2004 election reveals that the events of 2004 represented continuity as well as change. By placing the 2004 elections within a longer trajectory, the volume enriches our understanding of the Orange Revolution and helps us to understand the difficulties faced in consolidating Ukraine?s democratic breakthrough following the Orange Revolution.The volume contains an introduction to Aspects of the Orange Revo-lution I-VI by Andreas Umland followed by eight chapters by Robert K. Christensen, Edward R. Rakhimkulov and Charles Wise, Paul D?Anieri, Robert Kravchuk and Victor Chudowsky, Paul Kubicek, Taras Kuzio, Lucan Way, and Anna Makhorkina. These authors bring complex and varied perspectives that situate Ukraine?s post-Soviet elections in economic reforms, constitutional law, foreign policy objectives of integrating into Europe, as well as in the broader context of the rough and tumble competition for political control of Ukraine 410 0$aSoviet and post-Soviet politics and society. 606 $aPresidents$zUkraine$xElection$y2004 607 $aUkraine$xHistory$yOrange Revolution, 2004$9lat$2NLI 615 0$aPresidents$xElection 676 $a320.947 702 $aD Anieri$b Paul$4edt 702 $aKuzio$b Taras$4edt 702 $aUmland$b Andreas$4edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958386803321 996 $aAspects of the Orange Revolution I$94415523 997 $aUNINA
