About the book: 2022 / The revolutionary era (1917-1922) became for the people of Ukraine a genuine “moment of truth” - the choice of two historically interconnected prospects: the vector of socio-political development, as well as determining the appropriate place and role in the surrounding world, among other communities and societies. From the many potential alternatives in the crucible of the most complex processes, the strategy of socialist creation and unification with other free peoples into a union of equal Soviet republics has crystallized. In the proposed study, considerable attention is paid to the historiographical development of various aspects of the phenomena and events being reconstructed. For all those interested in Russian history. Saved in PDF A4 format publishing book layout.
