This book examines why, when the conflict in eastern Ukraine began
in 2014, fighting broke out in the Donets'k region, whereas it did
not in Kharkiv city, despite the city, like the Donets'k region,
being geographically proximate to Russia and similar in ethnic and
linguistic make up. Based on extensive original research, the book
argues that a key factor was the nature and behaviour of local
elites, with those in Kharkiv having diffuse ties to the centre and
therefore being more capable of adapting to sudden, profound regime
change at the centre, whereas the elites in the Donets'k region had
much more concentrated ties to the centre, were dependent on one
network, and therefore were much less able to cope with change. The
book thereby demonstrates how crucial for Ukraine are patronal
politics, patronage networks, and informal centre-region relations,
and that it was these local political circumstances, rather than
Russia, which brought about the conflict.
