The history of a place (throughout its history called 'new Athens', 'Ukrainian Manchester', 'the Brezhnev s capital' and 'the heart of Ukraine') is seen through the prism of key threads in the modern history of Europe: the imperial colonization and industrialization, the war and the revolution in the borderlands, the everyday life and mythology of a Soviet closed city, and the transformations of post-Soviet Ukraine. Designed as a critical entangled history of the multicultural space, the book looks for a new analytical language to overcome the traps of both national and imperial history-writing.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrii Portnov\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of Entangled History of Ukraine at the European University Viadrina (Frankfurt\/Oder).
