KIIS gives hints to men what to present to women on March 8 for several years already. Besides, we are interested in the plans of men and we see that they listen to our hints.

According to the results of the poll, similarly to the last year, TOP-6 presents that women would like to receive are flowers, care and attention, romantic trip, jewelry, toilet water or perfume and cosmetics, romantic dinner.

In Ukraine, as well as in Russia  majority of respondents  wants both countries to be independent, but friendly  - with open borders, without visas and customs houses (in Ukraine – 68%, in Russia – 59%). In Ukraine  with numbers  have decreased  since November, 2013 by 5%, in Russia – increased  by 4%.

The main reason for the majority of people to participate in protests is outrage with the corrupted regime of Yanukovych (the highest level in the West – 68%, the lowest on the East – 20%).

Almost a third of respondents (30%) also indicate three other reasons such as the West influence, that aims to include Ukraine in its sphere of political interests (people’s thoughts differ by regions significantly: 57% and 44% believe in that in the East and in the South, respectively while only 17% and 5% think in such a way in the Centre and in the West).

The results of conjoint nationwide sociological survey of Kiev International Institute of Sociology and Center for Social and Marketing Research “SOCIS”

Thoughts of the Ukrainians about protests were divided almost equally. Number of respondents who supports the protest intentions of citizens is almost 47% (26.8% - fully support, 20.9% - rather support). Do not support the protests - 46% (31.3% - do not support, 14.8% - rather not).

Since the survey on Maidan camp have passed one and a half months. During this time there were tough opposition protesters and security forces - beatings, repression, disappearances, and after the adoption of the infamous law of 16 January - real bloody fighting in Hrushevskoho Street and the first casualties. Maidan has been changed outside – barricades were built, stiffened in constant expectation of attack became more closed. Maidan camp was turned into a Maidan-Sich.

What changes have taken place with a population of Maidan? How has changed the social and demographic structure? Have the views and requirements changed of this much more militarized people? This we have tried to figure out in our survey.
