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. 410 0$aUkrainian voices (Stuttgart, Germany) ;$v1. 606 $aRussia 606 $aAnalysis 606 $aUkraine 606 $aChronicle 606 $aPolitics 606 $aRussland 606 $aChronik 606 $aPolitik 606 $aAnalyse 615 4$aRussia 615 4$aAnalysis 615 4$aUkraine 615 4$aChronicle 615 4$aPolitics 615 4$aRussland 615 4$aChronik 615 4$aPolitik 615 4$aAnalyse 676 $a947.7086 700 $aWynnyckyj$b Mychailo$cDr$4aut$01596263 702 $aUmland$b Andreas$4edt 702 $aPlokhy$b Serhii$4aui 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966896103321 996 $aUkraine's maidan, Russia's war$93917582 997 $aUNINA
