Abstract
What happens when people leave their homelands in search of a better life? How do decisions aimed at the avoidance of danger or the improvement of well-being shape people’s identities, change their memory of the places they left, and form the image of the places they have come to? These questions are ambiguous; being issues, important in spheres such as philosophy, psychology, anthropology, sociology, economy, and law. They are also the subject of Natalia Khanenko-Friesen’s study Ukrainian Otherlands: Diaspora, Homeland, and Folk Imagination in the Twentieth Century.
