Działania kulturalne jako potencjalne narzędzia deokupacji Szczególnych Rejonów Obwodów Donieckiego i Ługańskiego (ORDŁO) oraz reintegracji ich mieszkańców

Ukraine is in its fifth year of war. In September 2015 the Ukrainian parliament recognized a part of the Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts as temporarily occupied regions. Ukrainian analysts predict several scenarios regarding the future of their country. The most optimistic scenarios is the recovery of these regions by Ukraine, their de-occupation and post-conflict reconstruction. Cultural activities may be helpful in this process. Some Ukrainian artists have already launched projects addressed to both the inhabitants of the occupied regions and the rest of the Ukrainian population. Their aim is to reduce the division between these two groups, showing each of them in the light of the “Grievable Life” (in Judith Bulter’s category) as well as to form new and more effective discourse about war, victory and the post-conflict process.
