To commemorate the famine of 1932–1933 in Ukraine, the Holodomor, and victims, survivors, and the losses of the Soviet famines, this week we compiled the list of the recent publications, articles, books, and special journal issues (in alphabetical order) on the history of Ukraine’s Soviet famines, their imperial and colonial legacies, children’s experiences, memory, emotions, and the archival collections and sources to assist the further research.
