国家内部的地区差异是欧洲和欧亚政治研究的中心议题。在乌克兰，地区差异已被证明是群众态度和政治行为的有力预测因素。但乌克兰政治中的“地区因素”代表着什么？它仅仅是组成效应的结果，还是区域差异不仅仅是与地理划分相关的其他人口因素的总和？在分析作为解释变量的区域划分时，采用不同的区域框架会产生什么影响？在这篇文章中，我们展示了即使在其他因素如种族和语言使用被控制的情况下，该国的地理划分是如何保持的。作为这项调查的一部分，我们比较了乌克兰三个相互竞争的区域框架的结果：一个有两个区域，一个有四个区域，一个有八个区域。虽然八个地区的框架在乌克兰的研究中并不常见，但研究八个地区的决定得到了历史，经济和人口论据的支持，以及本文中提出的统计分析结果。关注乌克兰少数地区的学者可能低估了地区差异的影响，错过了乌克兰态度和投票行为的国内差异的有趣故事。这项研究的结果不仅对乌克兰的研究，而且对那些对欧洲和欧亚大陆的国家内部区域划分感兴趣的人具有重要意义。
Intra-state regional differences are a central topic in the study of European and Eurasian politics. In Ukraine, regional differences have proven to be powerful predictors of mass attitudes and political behavior. But what does the “regional factor” in Ukrainian politics represent? Is it simply the result of compositional effects, or are the regional differences more than just a sum of other demographic factors correlated with geographic divisions? When analyzing regional divisions as an explanatory variable, what are the implications of employing different regional frameworks? In this article, we demonstrate how geographic divisions in the country hold up even when others factors—such as ethnicity and language use—are controlled for. As part of this inquiry, we compare the results of three competing regional frameworks for Ukraine: one with two regions, one with four regions and one with eight regions. While the eight-region framework is uncommon in studies of Ukraine, the decision to examine eight regions is supported by historical, economic and demographic arguments, as well as by the results of the statistical analyses presented in this article. Scholars who have focused on fewer regions in Ukraine may have underestimated the effects of regional differences and missed interesting stories about intra-state variation in Ukrainian attitudes and voting behavior. The results of this study carry important implications not only for the study of Ukraine but also for those interested in intra-state regional divisions across Europe and Eurasia.
