Numerous books on the Maidan have mushroomed since its victory in February 2014. Most of them, however, reproduce popular blogs and personal stories without sufficient conceptualization of the protest. This book makes a step further. Its ambition is to reconstruct the whole picture of the protest in every detail. Thus, the author explores the schemes of movements of the special forces, publishes for the first time the orders they received, sheds light on the role of the Russian instructors. She describes new facts about the mass killing on the Maidan, which were only recently established by the ongoing investigation and remain unpublished. The goal of the book is to give a reader an idea about background of the protests on the Maidan, to provide her with historical frame of the events, to explain motives of the Ukrainian society, Ukrainian opposition, and regime of the ousted President Yanukovych as they arrived at deadly clash on the central square of the Ukrainian capital. The narrative of the book builds on the personal witnesses of the ordinary protesters, on the exclusive comments and interviews with the protagonists of the clashes, including social activists, politicians from the opposition parties of that time, and the main actors on behalf of the regime: Petro Poroshenko, Yulia Timoshenko, Rinat Akhmetov, Olexandr Yanukovych, Oleksandr Turchinov, Tetyana Chernovol and others. Most information has never been published and was shared with the author particularly for her book. Some bits of the information is truly revealing. The book also contains personal experiences and insights of the author, who is one of the most read journalists in Ukraine, an editor-in-chief of the popular online portal LB.ua. Sonya Koshkina is also known to the international readers, as she has published her reports on the Ukrainian developments in English, French, and German in the European media and presented at various round tables and conferences. Last but not least, the book is written in elegant style and features wit, which make the author extremely popular in the Ukrainian public. The book is intended for wide audience, for people who read quality newspapers and try to have their own opinion about what's going on in the world. It fits genre of the series "A Short Introduction to..." At the same time, it will be useful to the experts, journalists, and politicians writing and thinking of Ukraine, as it contains unique details and insights that have never been published before. The book consists of 4 parts and includes 3 blocks of coloured photos taken by the photographer of the LB.ua Max Levin. Part 1 describes the events of November-December 2013, part 2 - January 2014, part 3 - February 2014. Part 4 contains four chapters: one on annexation of Crimea; two on the role of the Church; three - a story told by the son of Viktor Yanukovych Alexandr; and four on Donbass. The book has been originally published in Russian and Ukrainian by Bright Star Publishing in Kyiv, Ukraine.

In early 2014, sparked by an assault by their government on peaceful students, Ukrainians rose up against a deeply corrupt, Moscow-backed regime. Initially demonstrating under the banner of EU integration, the Maidan protesters proclaimed their right to a dignified existence; they learned to organize, to act collectively, to become a civil society. Most prominently, they established a new Ukrainian identity: territorial, inclusive, and present-focused with powerful mobilizing symbols. Driven by an urban “bourgeoisie” that rejected the hierarchies of industrial society in favor of a post-modern heterarchy, a previously passive post-Soviet country experienced a profound social revolution that generated new senses: “Dignity” and “fairness” became rallying cries for millions. Europe as the symbolic target of political aspiration gradually faded, but the impact (including on Europe) of Ukraine’s revolution remained. When Russia invaded—illegally annexing Crimea and then feeding continuous military conflict in the Donbas—, Ukrainians responded with a massive volunteer effort and touching patriotism. In the process, they transformed their country, the region, and indeed the world. This book provides a chronicle of Ukraine’s Maidan and Russia’s ongoing war, and puts forth an analysis of the Revolution of Dignity from the perspective of a participant observer.

The Ukrainian crisis that dominated headlines in fall 2013 was decades in the making. Two great schisms shaped events: one within Ukraine, its western and southeastern parts divided along cultural and political lines; the other was driven by geopolitical factors. Competition between Russia and the West exacerbated Ukraine's divisions. This study focuses on the historical background and complex causality of the crisis, from the rise of mass demonstrations on Kiev's Maidan Nezalezhnosti (Independence Square) to the making of the post-revolt regime. In the context of a "new cold war," the author sheds light on the role of radical Ukrainian nationalists and neofascists in the February 2014 snipers' massacre, the ouster of President Viktor Yanukovych, and Russia's seizure of Crimea and involvement in the civil war in the eastern region of Donbass.

Aside from the near-complete devastation of a sovereign state and reversal of the global balance of power, the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 is leading to a radical transformation in the Eastern European and Eurasian regions – including Russia itself. The 12 chapters in this volume examine the main geopolitical consequences of the resurgent imperialist aspirations of the Russian Federation. They examine the ideological tools of history falsification as an integral part of hybrid warfare. Turning to the economy, the book discusses how the war and economic sanctions imposed on Russia are redrawing the geopolitical map and how economic relations would change following a regime transformation. The book discusses the reactions of members of the international community to the invasion, whether threatened or neutral parties or allies. The collection therefore offers a comprehensive picture of the main consequences of the resurgent imperialist aspirations of the Russian Federation. Equipped with the conceptual tools of the analysis with a focus on the patronal features of the political-economic system, the book considers the aftermath of the war. This collection complements the book entitled Ukraine. Patronal Democracy and the Russian Invasion.

Petroleum is the most valuable commodity in the world and an enormous source of wealth for those who sell it, transport it and transform it for its many uses. As the engine of modern economies and industries, governments everywhere want to assure steady supplies. Without it, their economies would grind to a standstill. Since petroleum is not evenly distributed around the world, powerful countries want to be sure they have access to supplies and markets, whatever the cost to the environment or to human life. Coveting the petroleum of another country is against the rules of international law — yet if accomplished surreptitiously, under the cover of some laudable action, it's a bonanza. This is the basis of "the petroleum game," where countries jockey for control of the world's oil and natural gas. It's an ongoing game of rivalry among global and regional countries, each pursuing its own interests and using whatever tools, allies and organizations offer possible advantage. John Foster has spent his working life as an oil economist. He understands the underlying role played by oil and gas in international affairs. He identifies the hidden issues behind many of the conflicts in the world today. He explores military interventions (Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria), tensions around international waterways (Persian Gulf, South China Sea), and use of sanctions or political interference related to petroleum trade (Iran, Russia, Venezuela). He illuminates the petroleum-related reasons for government actions usually camouflaged and rarely discussed publicly by Western politicians or media. Petroleum geopolitics are complex. When clashes and conflicts occur, they are multi-dimensional. This book ferrets out pieces of the multi-faceted puzzle in the dark world of petroleum and fits them together.

In Volume Three of this four-volume series, we examine the rhetorical development that occurred during the first two terms of Vladimir Putin’s tenure as president of the Russian Federation. Initially, Putin appeared to follow in the path set by his predecessor, Boris Yeltsin, vowing that Russia was, at heart, a European nation and would be a westward facing democracy going forward. He even mentioned partnering with the EU and NATO. Eight years later, at the 2007 Munich Security Conference, Putin excoriated the West for, in his words, attempting to create a “unipolar world” in which NATO expansion threatened Russia’s security, the United States acted as the world’s sole “hegemon,” and Europe simply followed orders, relinquishing any sense of agency in its own affairs.
