Product description from producer

The combination of the global and the local is an urgent need for those trying to find a way out of the crisis of modernity. The book offers such an approach to modern Ukraine. The author notes that Ukraine was formed as a result of globalization and modernization, along with their darkest sides associated with mass violence. However, the past is not a prison. It always leaves room for choice. The publication turns to the past in order to better understand where Ukraine and the world are now and where they could go next. The gift edition of the Ukrainian historical bestseller by Professor Yaroslav Hrytsak is an opportunity to impress and please the most demanding reader. This book will be a great addition to both home and public libraries. Reflections and correct interpretation of our past harmoniously complement historical maps and illustrations.
