Through an original study, it explores the dynamics of European identities during four critical crises in Georgia and Ukraine. Specifically, it examines the comparative effects of two color revolutions and wars involving Russia on the construction of European identity in Georgian and Ukrainian public identity discourses. By analyzing national mass media, the book sheds light on the outcomes of change and continuity during these \"big bang\" events in identity discourses and identifies the conditions that either facilitate or hinder such transformations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe central finding of this groundbreaking study is that the selected events possess the potential to provoke sudden shifts in European identity discourses, particularly when the elite power structure undergoes corresponding changes in hybrid regimes like Ukraine and Georgia. These changes encompass shifts in elite groups and their relative influence within the overall power structure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book's insightful analysis offers valuable insights into the complex interplay between crises, identity, and power dynamics in the post-Soviet region. It contributes to our understanding of the evolving nature of European identities and the factors that shape their transformation. This book is a must-read for scholars, researchers, and anyone interested in the dynamics of identity, politics, and society in the post-Soviet space.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 621g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030967161\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salome Minesashvili","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102965559546,"sku":"9783030967161","price":93.93,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1662163804262_book.jpg?v=1662414322","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/european-identities-during-wars-and-revolutions-change-under-crises-in-georgia-and-ukraine-9783030967161","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
