Kharkiv is Ukraine’s second largest city and its former capital.
Situated within 40 km of the Ukrainian-Russian border it is one of
those East-Central European “liminal” cities which became a
center of modernization and pluralization in the borderland area,
playing a prominent role in the process of nation building.
Volodymyr Kravchenko’s expanded edition of Kharkov/Kharkiv, now
in the English-language and including a new chapter on the
reconfiguration of the Ukrainian-Russian borderland during and
after the watershed Euromaidan event, uniquely uncovers the
city’s long history, from the 17th century to today. Addressing
issues of regional and national identities, Ukrainian-Russian
relations, mental mapping, historical narratives and the ensuing
de/reconstruction of national mythologies, this book, fills a
unique gap in the literature on Kharkiv.
