Summary of taras kuzio's putin's war against ukraine

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The first group of scholarly work on the Ukraine-Russia crisis is focused on the Euromaidan Revolution, which was different from the 2004 Orange Revolution in five ways. First, it lasted for three months, far longer than the seventeen-day Orange Revolution. Second, the Euromaidan was driven as much by national liberation as it was by European integration and human rights. #2 The second group of published materials portrays Russia as a victim and being forced to react to NATO and EU enlargement and democracy promotion into its privileged zone of interests. #3 The third and largest group of scholarly and think tank published material can be defined as Russia in geopolitical competition with the EU and the West, and the West's response to Russia's re-assertion as a great power. #4 The fourth group of published work focuses on Russia as a troublemaker and can be defined as in-out-in because of the complex inter-relationship between national identity, the search for great power status, and Russian imperialism.
