Himn demokratychnoi molodi [Anthem of Democratic Youth]

Serhii Zhadan's book colorfully describes the ‘carnival’ period of the early nineties. People who tried to survive in that period, earning money in any way, were witnesses of the construction of a new democratic society. And their desire to work at least as a trader in the market began to gradually grow into ideas of private entrepreneurship and big business. From mud to princes - the principle of democracy of that time. And if someone now thinks about why the system of the state apparatus works so badly now, then it is worth just looking around and seeing what this system and this apparatus were built on. ‘Anthem of Democratic Youth’ is dedicated to those who spent their early years in constant danger.
