Russia/Ucraina. Politica della storia e guerre della memoria nel contesto europeo

Abstract

This article studies the memory battles of the Russo-Ukrainian war, and places them within the wider picture of the politics of history as developed in post-inde¬pendence Ukraine, and in Putin's Russian Federation. These strategies are inter¬preted within the context of European initiatives designed to build a shared memory, and in particular within the specific process of refocussing created by the entry of Eastern European countries into the European Union.
