- Abstract
Purpose of the article is to highlight the peculiarities of the election campaign to the USSR Verkhovna Rada in 1947 in the USSR western regions in relation to the first postwar elections. Methodology of study is based on placed on the difficult economic and sociopolitical situation in the region, associated with the famine of 1946-1947 and the activities of the nationalist underground. The author analysed the new tactics of the regime’s representatives in relation to the organisation and conduct of elections in the region, aimed at reducing the protest mood of the population. In the article you can see the difficulties with the implementation of election procedures and the use of non-legal regulators of the election process. The author characterises the forms and methods of resistance of Western Ukrainians to the forced planting of Soviet-style democracy and the Soviet regime in general. The author emphasises that the first post-war election campaigns not only did not contribute to the Sovietisation of the western regions, but also strengthened the anti-Soviet sentiments of the population.
