This book examines in detail the state of the art on census taking to spark a more vivid debate on what some may see as a rather technical – and hence uncontroversial – field of inquiry.Against the backdrop of controversy between instrumental and performative theoretical stances towards census taking, it analyses the historical trajectories and political implications of seemingly technical decisions made during the quantification process by focusing on the 2020 round of censuses, which have been particularly revealing as activities have been affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing containment policies. Through case studies of countries from the Global North and the Global South, the book highlights the consequences of, and innovations and challenges in census taking focusing on three particular areas of concern – the politics of the census in terms of identity politics; the institutional autonomy of the census; and significant and transformative methodological innovations.This book will be of key interest to scholars, students and practitioners of quantification studies, and social demography and more broadly to public policy, governance, comparative politics and the broader social sciences.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution‑Non Commercial‑No Derivatives (CC‑BY‑NC‑ND) 4.0 license.

This edited collection provides a comprehensive overview of the major changes and transformations in Ukrainian society, from its independence in 1991, through to 2018. Based on solid empirical quantitative data generated by local institutions such as the monitoring survey Ukrainian Society, produced by the Institute of Sociology of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (IS NASU), the contributions explore transitions in values, occupational structure, education, inequality, religiosity, media, and identity, as well as the impact of the “Revolution of Dignity” (Euromaidan) and the Donbas conflict.Covering more than 25 years of Ukrainian history and complemented by qualitative research carried out by authors, Ukraine in Transformation will be invaluable to upper level students and researchers of sociology, political science, international relations and cultural studies, with a particular interest in post-Soviet Eastern Europe.

This volume offers a timely, empirically grounded analysis of how Ukrainian society adapts and transforms under the strain of full-scale war. It reconceptualises resilience not as passive endurance, but as a dynamic process involving individuals, communities, and institutions. Focusing on bottom-up responses, contributors examine how resilience is enacted through local governance, civic activism, youth agency, linguistic identity, and social inclusion.Based on qualitative and quantitative research – much of it conducted during wartime – the chapters demonstrate how decentralisation, civic engagement, and shifting social attitudes have enabled both resistance and adaptation. While the focus remains on societal responses, the volume also reflects on the methodological and ethical complexities of researching under conditions of war and suggests context-sensitive approaches to studying social resilience amid disruption.This book is essential reading for scholars of Eastern Europe, conflict and resilience studies, sociology, political science, and governance, as well as for policymakers, NGOs, and practitioners working in crisis contexts.
