  • Kyiv, Ukraine: the City of Domes and Demons from the Collapse Of
    Roman Adrian Roman Cybriwsky Kyiv, Ukraine is a pioneering case study of urban change from socialism to the hard edge of a market economy after the Soviet collapse. It looks in detail at the changing social geography of the city, and on critical problems such as corruption, social inequality, sex tourism, and destruction of historical ambience by greedy developers. The book is based on fieldwork and an insider’s knowledge of the city, and is engagingly written. Roman Adrian Cybriwsky is Professor of Geography and Urban Studies at Temple University in Philadelphia, USA, and former Ukraine Kyiv, Fulbright Scholar at the National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy. He divides his time between Philadelphia, Kyiv, and Tokyo, about which he has also written books. “Roman Cybriwsky knows this city and its people, speaks their language, feels their frustrations with its opportunist and corrupt post-Soviet public figures Roman Adrian Cybriwsky who have bankrupted this land morally and economically. He has produced a rich urban ethnography stoked by embers of authorial rage.” — John Charles Western, Professor of Geography, Syracuse University, USA “Kyiv, Ukraine is an interdisciplinary tour de force: a scholarly book that is Kyiv, Ukraine also an anthropological and sociological study of Kyivites, a guide to Kyiv and its society, politics, and culture, and a journalistic investigation of the city’s darkest secrets. At this time of crisis in Ukraine, the book is indispensable.” — Alexander Motyl, Professor of Political Science, Rutgers University, USA The City of Domes and Demons “Filled with personal observations by a highly trained and intelligent urbanist, Kyiv, Ukraine is a beautiful and powerful work that reveals from the Collapse of Socialism profound truths about a city we all need to know better.” — Blair A.
