These losses were the devastating consequences of the two world wars, revolutions, famines, genocidal campaigns, and purges that wracked Europe in the first half of the twentieth century and spread new ideas, created new political and economic systems, and crafted new identities. In Total Wars and the Making of Modern Ukraine, 1914-1954, George O. Liber argues that the continuous violence of the world wars and interwar years transformed the Ukrainian-speaking population of East Central Europe into self-conscious Ukrainians. Wars, mass killings, and forced modernization drives made and re-made Ukraine's boundaries, institutionalized its national identities, and pruned its population according to various state-sponsored political, racial, and social ideologies. In short, the two world wars, the Holodomor, and the Holocaust played critical roles in forming today's Ukraine. A landmark study of the terrifying scope and paradoxical consequences of mass violence in Europe's bloodlands, Liber's book will transform our understanding of the entangled histories of Ukraine, the USSR, Germany, and East Central Europe in the twentieth century."--$cProvided by publisher 606 $aHISTORY / Russia & the Former Soviet Union$2bisacsh 607 $aUkraine$xHistory$y1917-1921 607 $aUkraine$xHistory$y1921-1944 607 $aUkraine$xHistory$y1944-1991 608 $aLibros electronicos. 615 7$aHISTORY / Russia & the Former Soviet Union. 676 $a947.708/4 700 $aLiber$b George$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut.$0569953 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910823216403321 996 $aTotal Wars and the Making of Modern Ukraine, 1914-1954$94080838 997 $aUNINA
