This volume explores economic, social, and political dimensions of three catastrophic famines which struck mid-nineteenth and early-twentieth century Europe; the Irish Famine (An Gorta Mór ) of 1845–1850, the Finnish Famine (Suuret Nälkävuodet) of the 1860s and the Ukrainian Famine (Holodomor) of 1932/1933.In addition to providing new insights into these events on international, national and regional scales, this volume contributes to an increased comparative historiography in historical famine studies. The parallel studies presented in this book challenge and enhance established understandings of famine tragedies, including: famine causation and culpability; social and regional famine vulnerabilities; core–periphery relationships between nations and regions; degrees of national autonomy and self-sufficiency; as well as famine memory and identity.Famines in European Economic History advocates that the impact and long-term consequences of famine for a nation should be understood in the context of evolving geopolitical relations that extend beyond its borders. Furthermore, regional structures within a nation can lead to unevenness in both the severity of the immediate famine crisis and the post-famine recovery.This book will be of interest to those in the fields of economic history, European history and economic geography.

The first Ukrainian settlers came to Canada over one hundred years ago. Today the Ukrainian-Canadian community holds a distinct place in the cultural mosaic.This collection of essays, first published in 1991, presents an overview of the community's experience, and brings together the works of over twenty scholars in history, politics, and sociology. Divided into three sections, the first group of essays focus on demography and settlement, the second on relations between the community and the state, while the third considers dynamics within the Ukrainian-Canadian community. Archival photographs create a strong sense of time and place.
