Returning to Ukraine
Chornovil returned to Ukraine in 1985 and revived Ukrainskyi visnyk in 1987. A periodical interrupted by repression again became an instrument of civic activity.
Changed circumstances, continuing work
Compare the early 1970s with the late 1980s. The publication’s name returns, while its readers, political surroundings and opportunities for civic action have changed. The comparison reveals continuity and transformation together.
A personal perspective
Years of absence were more than a pause in a political career. Returning also involved family, daily work and rebuilding relationships. Use the notebook to record which questions about the person remain outside the familiar political milestones.
What does it mean to resume work for which one has already been punished?
