Situated within 40 km of the Ukrainian-Russian border it is one of those East-Central European \"liminal\" cities which became a center of modernization and pluralization in the borderland area, playing a prominent role in the process of nation building. Volodymyr Kravchenko's expanded edition of Kharkov\/Kharkiv, now in the English-language and including a new chapter on the reconfiguration of the Ukrainian-Russian borderland during and after the watershed Euromaidan event, uniquely uncovers the city's long history, from the 17th century to today. Addressing issues of regional and national identities, Ukrainian-Russian relations, mental mapping, historical narratives and the ensuing de\/reconstruction of national mythologies, this book, fills a unique gap in the literature on Kharkiv.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVolodymyr Kravchenko\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor in the Department of History, Classics and Religion at the University of Alberta and Director of the Contemporary Ukraine Studies Program at the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian studies (CIUS) at the University of Alberta.
