The conflict in Ukraine has deep domestic roots. A third of the
population, primarily in the East and South, regards its own
Russian cultural identity as entirely compatible with a Ukrainian
civic identity. The state's reluctance to recognize this ethnos as
a legitimate part of the modern Ukrainian nation, has created a
tragic cycle that entangles Ukrainian politics. The Tragedy of
Ukraine argues that in order to untangle the conflict within the
Ukraine, it must be addressed on an emotional, as well as
institutional level. It draws on Richard Ned Lebow's 'tragic vision
of politics' and on classical Greek tragedy to assist in
understanding the persistence of this conflict. Classical Greek
tragedy once served as a mechanism in Athenian society to heal deep
social trauma and create more just institutions. The Tragedy of
Ukraine reflects on the ways in which ancient Greek tragedy can
help us rethink civic conflict and polarization, as well as model
ways of healing deep social divisions.
