Місто: історія, культура, суспільство. City: History, culture, society

From over-the-coffee ideas to a trendsetter

Abstract

In 2016, three young Ukrainian historians, inspired by conversations over coffee and the growing need to understand the history of Ukrainian cities better, founded the journal City: History, Culture, Society. This journal emerged as a response to the academic challenges in Ukraine and the pressing geopolitical events following Russia's 2014 invasion, which brought attention to historically significant but under-researched urban areas. The authors invite you to embark on a journey through the field of Urban Studies in Ukraine, to witness the evolution of their story—the story of young scholars whose projects have not only grown but also gained strength over time.
