Abstract
This article studies the ideas and ideologies publicly expressed by workers’ organizations (alternative trade unions and various support groups) in Ukraine during the world economic crisis. Studying such ideas allows insights into the extent to which the post-communist political-economic order has won the acceptance of important segments of society; about how the mobilized parts of the working class perceive the country’s political leaders, and about the actions and alliances pursued by various workers’ organizations against politicians and business groups. The study shows how workers’ and other marginal groups’ organizations depict reality in their public declarations so as to facilitate the emergence of a large alliance of have-nots on the basis of total rejection of Ukraine’s post-1991 political and economic establishment.
