Abstract

Abstract. The aim is to consider the Holodomor of 1932-1933, taking into account the events of the Рeasant revolution
of 1902-1933 in Ukraine.
The scientific novelty of the publication lies in the explanation of the Holodomor of 1932-1933 as a tool for the physical
and spiritual destruction of another for the Soviet authorities - the Ukrainian peasant-ideoman, an active subject of the peasant
revolution of 1902-1933 in Ukraine.
Conclusions. In the late 1920s and early 1930s, Soviet totalitarianism, implementing agrarian policy in the Ukrainian
countryside, forming a new type of Soviet peasant, represented a peasant counter-revolution. Its goal was clear and
understandable - not only the physical, but also the spiritual and cultural destruction of the Ukrainian peasant-ideoman,
formed at the beginning of the 20th century.
In the late 1920s – early 1930s, Soviet totalitarianism, applying taxes, grain procurement, artificially provoking the
Holodomor of 1932-1933, forming a new type of Soviet peasant, represented a peasant counter-revolution. Its goal was clear
and understandable – not only the physical, but also the spiritual and cultural destruction of the Ukrainian peasant-ideoman,
formed at the beginning of the 20th century. The Holodomor of 1932-1933 wiped out the Ukrainian peasants-ideomans, the
traditional Ukrainian peasant culture. It caused serious damage to Ukrainian identity.
