Ukraine and the Empire of Capital: From Marketisation to Armed Conflict de Yuliya Yurchenko

Ukraine and the Empire of Capital: From Marketisation to Armed Conflict

Autor Yuliya Yurchenko
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 dec 2017
From the Orange Revolution to Euromaidan, Ukraine has been in turmoil for decades. With Russia now threatening its borders and with simmering civil unrest, the country’s stability hangs by a thread. In Ukraine and the Empire of Capital, Yuliya Yurchenko analyzes these dramatic events through the lens of the country’s post-Soviet past. Providing distinctive and unexplored reflections on the origins of the conflict, Yurchenko challenges the four central myths that underlie Ukraine’s post-Soviet reality: the myth of transition, the myth of democracy, the myth of two Ukraines, and the myth of the other. With a particular focus on Ukraine’s relations with the United States, European Union, and Russia, Yurchenko provides the first deep study of contemporary Ukrainian political economy from a Marxist perspective.

Recenzii

“In this thought-provoking book, Yuliya Yurchenko focuses on Ukraine's class dynamics and political economy and puts them in international context. Her analytical approach is a breath of fresh air amidst a fog of stale commentary that assumes Ukraine is all about geopolitical ‘pro-western’ or ‘pro-Russian’ narratives.”
