Description: This book explores the transformation of Soviet Ukraine into an independent state. It finds that state building is an integral part of the transition process, as much as democratization and the establishment of a market economy.
Review Quotes: "With "Ukraine: State and Nation Building Taras Kuzio has demonstrated once again his sensitive and sophisticated understanding of contemporary Ukrainian politics. It is an essential work for students of contemporary Ukraine as well as political theorists interested in the complexities of nation-building in the modern era."
