Reviews'The 'unnamed war' in this brilliantly argued, comprehensively researched, and historically accurate book began as a civil war within Ukraine primarily fought between factions of what Russia has long imagined as their world. From this perspective, Arel's and Driscoll's analytic model reveals missed opportunities for a fragile peace that might have avoided Russia's imperialist invasion, where we can now envision only an endless war of attrition.' David D. Laitin, Professor of Political Science, Stanford University

SynopsisThe Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 has its roots in the events of 2013-2014. Russia cynically termed the seditionist conflict in Crimea and Eastern Donbas a 'civil war' in order to claim non-involvement. This flies in the face of evidence, but the authors argue that the social science literature on civil wars can be used help understand why no political solution was found between 2015 and 2022. The book explains how Russia, after seizing Crimea, was reacting to events it could not control and sent troops only to areas of Ukraine where it knew it would face little resistance (Eastern Donbas). Kremlin decisionmakers misunderstood the attachment of the Russian-speaking population to the Ukrainian state and also failed to anticipate that their intervention would transform Ukraine into a more cohesively 'Ukrainian' polity. Drawing on Ukrainian documentary sources, this concise book explains these important developments to a non-specialist readership., This timely and concise account of the roots of Russia's invasion of Ukraine explains how the 2013-14 protests in Ukraine unleashed seditionist movements in Crimea and Eastern Donbas. It analyzes why no political solution to this war was found prior to the catastrophic Russian attack of 2022.
