STATE BUILDING IN THE MIDDLE OF A GEOPOLITICAL ...

Rolando Dromundo presents a political and historical analysis of the state-building processes
in Ukraine  Moldova  and the unrecognized Republic of Pridnestrovia from the Soviet fall until
2015  starting with a sketch of the main geopolitical trend that surrounds these polities and
its influences on them  and paying special attention to the vicissitudes of the Ukrainian
political crisis of 2013-14 and its immediate consequences in Crimea and the Donbass. This book
is a must for scholars with an interest in the Post-Soviet Space and to anyone curious about an
international conflict from a realist perspective. It offers an original insight on the
understanding of the oligarch's role in the Ukrainian political life and presents a different
perspective of the unrecognized Republic of Pridnestrovia. Dromundo writes neither pro-Russian
nor pro-Western. He sheds light on the problems from different angles and illustrates how the
local inhabitants turned out to become the biggest losers in the game because they have fallen
prey to local elites allied with different foreign powers disregarding local identities and
needs. Altogether  the book helps to better understand the complexity of local state-building
processes in a multiethnic society.
