dc.description.abstractIn this paper, I refer to Maidan (Euromaidan) protests that took place in Ukraine in 2013–2014. I analyse the role of secrecy in Evacuation+ Initiative (E+), one of Maidan volunteer organization that evacuated sick and wounded Maidan residents to safe locations – makeshift hospitals. The empirical part of the paper uses in-depth semistructured oral history interviews with Maidan participants. The analysis identifies the peculiarities of horizontal network volunteering formations of Maidane using the E+ Initiative case study. Different manifestations of secrecy in E+ the same as some visibility markers are also thoroughly covered by the analysis. I suggest that, in the context of the resistance against autocracy, secrecy in E+ is subordinated to the aims of safety and survival. That is why we may frame a separate dimension of secrecy, the "safety dimension," in addition to informational and social dimensions considered by Costas and Gray while studying the different types of organizations (2014).en_US
