Reviews / Votes
"Michael Moser [...] widmet [...] sich einem aktuellen und hochbrisanten Thema: der Sprachpolitik und dem metasprachlichen Diskurs in der Ukraine in den ersten rund zweieinhalb Jahren unter Staatspräsident Janukovyc.[...] Insgesamt ist Michael Moser eine fundierte und hervorragend lesbare, auf einer breiten Basis von Presse- und Internetquellen fußende Studie gelungen."Mark Brüggemann, Jahrbücher für Geschichte Osteuropas
