This course provides students with a framework for understanding Russia's war in Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022. Starting from the fall of the Soviet Union, the course delves into the relationship between Ukraine, Russia, and the west in order to understand the geopolitical situation that preceded war. It explores Soviet legacies in Ukraine on language, cultural practice, and ethnic and national identifications and considers the importance of mass protest and civic organizing in Ukraine's political culture. The course further considers the role of information in the current war and provides students with tools for seeking out and verifying information in the fast-moving context of war.
