Based on a painstaking analysis of the available evidence, Katchanovski demonstrates how the false flag shootings of 18-20 February 2014 unfolded and their impact on subsequent developments in Ukraine. If a single book can change our understanding of a historical event, this is it.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e--Richard Sakwa, Emeritus Professor of Russian and European Politics, University of Kent, UK\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Katchanovski's study is a model of contemporary social science research based on social media, testimonies of participants, and evidence and verdicts of subsequent legal trials. Analysis derived from the data is unparalleled in the study of extra-legal politics in post-Soviet Ukraine. This is a convincing book which should be read by everyone interested in knowing the truth about current developments in Ukraine and especially the underlying causes of the Ukrainian-Russian conflict.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e--David Lane, Emeritus Professor of Sociology, Cambridge University\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis open access book provides a comprehensive analysis of the Maidan massacre in Ukraine.
