Ukraine Between Empire and Globalization

Description

This volume presents a selection of scholarly works by historian and writer Mariya Heinbockel. On the pages of the collection, the reader will enter the ruthless world of Ukrainian politics, trace the extraordinary careers of prominent Ukrainians such as Stepan Bandera and Pavlo Skoropadsky, and learn from the example of Kharkiv Governor General M. T. Loris-Melikov how the Russian elite solved the „Ukrainian question“ in the 19th century and reflected on the imperial space of which Ukraine was a part.

All the works in this collection were written under the supervision of renowned scholars. They have been published and presented at international scientific conferences and symposia in Germany, the United States, Ukraine and Switzerland.

The collection is addressed to students of Ukrainian history, professional researchers and historians. It is also intended for those who wish to rethink history by reading scholarly, lively, and relevant material in which Ukraine gradually emerges from a series of minor roles and begins the thorny path to independence, identity, and self-determination.
