{"product_id":"9781836953876","title":"Kharkov\/Kharkiv : A Borderland Capital","description":"\u003cp\u003eKharkiv is Ukraine's second largest city and its former capital. 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","brand":"Berghahn Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49247925534947,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3758\/6147\/files\/9781836953876-1.jpg?v=1788413372","url":"https:\/\/usa.kinokuniya.com\/zh\/products\/9781836953876","provider":"Books Kinokuniya USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
