Despite repeated warnings from the White House, Russia's invasion
of Ukraine in February 2022 shocked the world. Why did Putin start
the war-and why has it unfolded in previously unimaginable ways?
Ukrainians have resisted a superior military; the West has united,
while Russia grows isolated. Serhii Plokhy, leading historian of
Ukraine and the Cold War, traces this conflict to post-Soviet
tensions. Providing a broad historial context and an examination of
Ukraine and Russia's ideas and cultures, as well as domestic and
international politics, Plokhy reveals that while this new Cold War
was not inevitable, it was predictable. Ukraine, Plokhy argues, has
remained central to Russia's idea of itself even as Ukrainians have
followed a radically different path. It is now more than ever the
most volatile fault line between authoritarianism and democratic
Europe as a new division of the world emerges around the economic
superpowers of the United States and China.
