In recent years, Ukraine has been faced, along with Western Europe, with the political conundrum resulting from Russia\u2019s actions and the ongoing Information War. As well as exploring this confrontation, Schl\u00f6gel provides detailed, fascinating historical portraits of a panoply of Ukraine\u2019s major cities: Lviv, Odessa, Czernowitz, Kiev, Kharkov, Donetsk, Dnepropetrovsk and Yalta \u2013 cities whose often troubled and war-torn histories are as varied as the nationalities and cultures which have made them what they are today, survivors with very particular identities and aspirations. Schl\u00f6gel feels the pulse of life in these cities, analysing their more recent pasts and their challenges for the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Contents<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ukraine, Or Remapping Europe: Preface To The English Edition<br>Author\u2019s Note<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Europe\u2019s Ukraina: An Introduction<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 Information War<br>2 Farewell To Empire, Farewell To Russia?<br>3 Seeing For Ourselves: Discovering Ukraine<br>4 Kiev, Metropolis<br>5 Ah, Odessa: A City In An Era Of Great Expectations<br>6 Promenade In Yalta<br>7 Look Upon This City: Kharkov, A Capital Of The Twentieth Century<br>8 Dnepropetrovsk: Rocket City On The Dnieper And City Of Potemkin<br>9 Donetsk: Twentieth-Century Urbicides<br>10 Czernowitz: City Upon A Hill<br>11 Lviv: Capital Of Provincial Europe<br>12 The Shock: Thinking The Worst-Case Scenario<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further Reading<br>Acknowledgements<br>Photo Acknowledgements<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Karl Schl\u00f6gel<\/strong> is a historian and essayist and Professor Emeritus of the European University Viadrina in Frankfurt (Oder), Germany.
