Ukraine Maps
This series of maps for the oblasts and constituencies of Ukraine have been developed in connection with a project funded by the Geography and Spatial Science program of the National Science Foundation, titled "The Transition to Democracy in Ukraine." The maps show the distribution of the support for candidates for the Verkhovna Rada (parliament) of Ukraine in the 1994-1996 elections, by the 450 constituencies and 26 oblasts. A second series of maps shows the distribution of the voting behavior of the Rada deputies on issues of economic and political change in 1995-1996.
