Description
Ukraine: What Everyone Needs to Know is a comprehensive guide to the country's complex history and its significance in the modern world. The book sheds light on the underlying causes of Ukraine's political crises, revealing how the country's struggles are deeply rooted in global discord over state power, civil society, and democracy. Ukraine's relations with the West, particularly the United States, are examined through the eyes of Ukrainians, providing a nuanced understanding of the country's experiences with crony capitalism, corruption, and the struggle for democracy. The book also explores the factors behind the 2016 US presidential election and the impact of the events leading to the impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump on the Russia-Ukraine-US relationship. This updated edition of Serhy Yekelchyk's 2015 publication offers a fresh perspective on Ukraine's place in the world, providing valuable insights into the country's recent civic revolution and the ongoing conflict with Russia.
