Cultural identity of modern Ukrainian diaspora in Spain

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the work. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the facts that testify to the emergence of the newest Ukrainian diaspora in Spain through the example of the life of the diaspora and to find out the foundations, functions and priorities of the Ukrainian diaspora in Spain, which gradually harmoniously joins to the community of world Ukrainian diaspora. We tried to demonstrate that in the chronological dimension, the newest Ukrainian diaspora in Spain is a "young" phenomenon, and the process of its development and structuring is only being built. However, already at this stage of the research we clearly trace the functionality of the diaspora. The methodology of the research consists in applying the general scientific principle of objectivity, analytical, cultural studies and comparative methods of the study of the cultural identity of the Ukrainian diaspora in Spain. Together, these methodological approaches have made it possible to reveal the essence of the peculiarities of the functioning of the new Ukrainian diaspora in the Kingdom of Spain. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the determination of the peculiarities of the transformation of external labor migrations into Ukrainian diaspora communities, especially in those countries where there were no, or small-scale communities of Ukrainians. First of all, we are talking about the Kingdom of Spain. Conclusions. As a result of the conducted research it is possible to come to conclusions about the functionality of the Ukrainian diaspora in the Kingdom of Spain. It is consolidated, has characteristic organizational forms and preserves and multiplies signs of national identity - language, culture, consciousness. The main functions carried out by diaspora associations of all nations of the world (cultural, social and political) are laid in the basis of the organizational work of modern diaspora communities of Ukrainians in Spain.
