The Making of Modern Ukraine

von Timothy Snyder

Website RSS

Ukraine must have existed as a society and polity on 23 February 2022, else Ukrainians would not have collectively resisted Russian invasion the next day. What does it mean for a nation to exist? Timothy Snyder explores these and other questions in a very timely course.

This course was recorded live in a classroom at Yale University in the autumn of 2022.
