The Dynamics of Emerging De-Facto States: Eastern Ukraine in the Post-Soviet Space (Routledge Focus)

by Stefan Wolff (Author), Tetyana Malyarenko (Author)

Synopsis

This book explores and explains the causes and consequences of the Ukraine conflict, and the responses to it by local, national, and external actors. The authors examine the feasibility and viability of several options for the settlement of the conflict. Focusing on the causes and consequences of the conflict, as well as the responses by various direct and indirect parties, and demonstrating the connections between developments at local, national, and regional/global levels of analysis, they also examine the feasibility and viability of several prominent `scenarios' for a possible settlement of the conflict.
