Abstract

360 Book Reviews / Canadian – American Slavic Studies 44 (2010) 343–386 Laada Bilaniuk. Contested Tongues: Language Politics and Cultural Correction in Ukraine . Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press, 2005. xiv, 230 pp. $59.95 (cloth), $24.95 (paper). Language has been a hotly contested issue in post-Soviet Ukraine. After decades of repression and Russiﬁ cation under imperial Russian and Soviet rule, many Ukrainians saw independence as an opportunity to elevate the Ukrainian language to a higher status. Ukrainian was made the sole oﬃ cial state language, and Ukrainian was aﬀ orded a more prominent place in education and in the media.
