The Institute of World Policy presented the rating “Top-10 Ukraine’s promoters in the World” in 2012.The annual rating “Top-10 Ukraine’s promoters in the World” is based on the expert survey, in which this year 54 foreign and Ukrainian experts took part.
Evaluation criteria:
• a continuous reference to Ukrainian subject area;
• promotion of Ukraine from the international platform, within the frames of international conferences, in foreign mass media, etc.,
• a continuous assistance for European integration of Ukraine.

The process of estimation included the definition of their own “top ten” Ukrainian promoters and an assessment for each of the chosen persons using the ten-point scale.

Institute of World Policy conducted the study “How to get rid of post-Sovietness?” in partnership with the Georgian Foundation for Strategic and International Studies (Tbilisi, Georgia), the Institute for Development and Social Initiatives “Viitorul” (Chisinau, Moldova) and with support of the Black Sea Trust for Regional Cooperation.The goal of the research was to find out the negative elements in politics and society peculiar for the post-soviet developing period. By the post-sovietness we mean the form of the socio-political mutation, when the old soviet values and models of behavior combine with the Western equivalents.

The project consists of three parts, in which the phenomenon of post-Sovietness in Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia is studied. Choice is motivated not only because those countries were part of the Soviet Union, but also by the fact that they have officially declared the will to join the European Union. In the course of the study, the Institute of World Policy identified attributes of post-Sovietness in politics and society.
Within the study we also created an online test to expose postsovietness. You can take the test on the web-site of information-analytical agency “Glavkom” (available in Ukrainian only).
