A Chronicle of the Evolution of Ukraine's "National Idea" and the Jews. 1987-2016: A Book of Documentary Journalism

In the struggle for Ukrainian independence in the late 1980s and early 1990s, Aleksandr Burakovskiy championed a vision of a tolerant, inclusive Ukrainian state, built on foundations of shared citizenship and equality. But in the years that followed, Ukraine became increasingly infatuated with ethnonationalism. Burakovskiy has chronicled and criticized this evolution towards intolerance. His analyses will displease many -- all the more reason to pay close attention to what he has to say.
