Abstract
The aim: To identify and to describe the historical and current factors that determine the patterns of alcohol consumption in modern Ukraine. Materials and methods: A review and analysis of existing literature focused on historical and contemporary contexts of alcohol use in modern Ukraine. Epidemiological data from general population adolescents survey (N=2038; 2020) and adults survey (N=1200; 2019) conducted in the Lviv region are analyzed from the sociological perspective. Conclusions: Studies results demonstrate the existence of special mechanism that conserves and strengthens the predisposition of positive attitude towards alcohol since early childhood. This information will help to shift the focus of anti-alcohol policy towards a more diverse set of strategies (including administrative intervention and harm reduction strategy).
