Reviews
"This book explores the Ukrainian crisis using a different approach, not often seen in other works. The authors have attempted to view the Ukrainian crisis not at the level of competition between superpowers and the issue of East and West, but from a social and identity perspective. In this they have been successful. As a result, the reader gains a more thorough understanding of events and better perceives the complexities of the tensions between Ukraine and Russia and, hence, between Russia and the West...."Ghasem Torabi (2018) Revolution and War in Contemporary Ukraine.
