The Russian War against Ukraine
Odesa’s Many Frontiers
Why focus on Odesa? Because it is the largest, strategically located port on the Black Sea-the continental gateway to the Mediterranean? Or because it remains one of the world's leading exporters of grain-now closed by a broad Russian military blockade? Or is it because of the city's extremely rich tendency toward myth-making? Something as seemingly banal as Odesa's "Potemkin Steps" have been firmly immortalized into film canons from L.A. to Toro…
The Black Sea from a "Safe" Distance
Why was an academic conference devoted to problems in the Black Sea basin held in landlocked Kharkiv? Those who wish to find the answer to this question would do well to recall that in 2010, Kharkiv was the place where the "Agreement between Ukraine and Russia on the Black Sea Fleet in Ukraine" (widely referred to as the Kharkiv Pact or Kharkiv Accords) was signed. Upon travelling even farther into the depths of history, one would see how importa…

Edmonton …

In this article the author tries to answer these questions by exploring Kharkiv’s role and place in the regional context of ongoing Ukrainian nation-state building in the historical perspective, focusing on the period after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Issues of regional geopolitics on the Ukra…
