PANEL SE1/BO24Identity in Formation
The Russian-Speaking Populations in the Near Abroad(Cornell, 1998) —Twenty Years Later
Identity in Formation, published in 1998, was the first major attempting to theorize on the possible paths of identity reconstruction of Russian-speaking populations in the former Soviet republics, focusing specifically on Estonia, Latvia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan. Twenty years later, David Laitin is revisiting his landmark book, in a broad-ranging discussion with Kolsto, a discussant in the original 1998 ASN book panel; Arel, who conducted the field work for the Ukraine portion of the book; and Driscoll, who applied the book’s language modeling to his own field work in Georgia.
David Laitin’s last book, Why Muslim Integration Fails
in Christian-Heritage Societies, was featured at ASN 2016.

PANEL U18/ BO14A Conversation with Omer Bartov about
Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz (Simon & Schuster 2018)
A fascinating and cautionary examination of how genocide can take root at the local level—turning neighbors, friends, and even family members against one another—as seen through the border town of Buczacz during World War II. For more than four hundred years, Buczacz—today part of Western Ukraine—was home to Poles, Ukrainians, and Jews who all lived side by side in relative harmony. Then came the war, and the entire Jewish population was murdered by German and Ukrainian police. For more than two decades Bartov, whose mother was raised in Buczacz, scoured archives to construct a micro-history of the Holocaust.
Omer Bartov’s previous book, Erased: Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia
in Present-Day Ukraine, was featured at ASN 2008.

The Road to Unfreedom: Russia, Europe, America (Tim Duggan Books, 2018)
Russia is an oligarchy propped up by illusions and repression. But it also represents the fulfilment of tendencies already present in the West. And if Moscow’s drive to dissolve Western states and values succeeds, this could become our reality too. Snyder shows how Russia works within the West to destroy the West; by supporting the far right in Europe, invading Ukraine in 2014, waging a cyberwar in the US and UK, and in the creation of Donald Trump, an American failure deployed as a Russian weapon. This threat presents an opportunity to better understand the pillars of our freedoms, confront our own complacency and seek renewal.

Chernobyl: The History of a Nuclear Catastrophe (Hachette, 2018)
In Chernobyl, Serhii Plokhy draws on new sources to tell the dramatic stories of the firefighters, scientists, and soldiers who heroically extinguished the nuclear inferno. He lays bare the flaws of the Soviet nuclear industry, tracing the disaster to the authoritarian character of Communist party rule, the regime’s control of scientific information, and its emphasis on economic development over all else.
“The definitive story of the Chernobyl crisis, covering all angles from (...) the manner in which the explosion forced Gorbachev to jump-start his perestroika
reforms, and the igniting of Ukrainian nationalism” –Andrew Wilson, U College London
