description: This monograph explores the causes and conditions of postcommunist nationalist revivals focusing on the reemergence of Cossack movements in Russia and Ukraine since the late 1980s. The study explores how different theories of nationalism underpinned different national policies and, ultimately, the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
