Yekelchyk S.. Ukraine: What Everyone Needs to Know. 2nd ed. — Oxford: Oxford University Press,2020. — 234 p.. 2020
I wrote the text of what became this book's first edition during a difficult year for Ukraine, when war seemed to rip the country apart. Both Ukrainian citizens and international specialists on Ukraine found themselves engaged in emotional arguments about people's power, political legitimacy, nationalism, and foreign involvement. Above all, they struggled to make sense of the war suddenly exploding in the heart of Eastern Europe decades after the collapse of communism, when the region should have been well on its way to prosperity and democracy. As I was writing this book, I was both worried and hopeful. I was concerned about family members and friends in Ukraine, who often held opposite views on the conflict but suffered from its consequences in much the same way. At the same time, I was hoping to see an end to the death and dislocation that the war had brought, and to catch a glimpse of a peaceful and democratic Ukraine emerging from the conflict.
