Rezensionen

"Olga Baysha's riveting War, Peace, and Populist Discourse exposes the lethality of simplistic judgments that fictionalize highly dangerous geopolitical struggles between Russia, Ukraine, and the West. Her devastating perspective is an indispensable contribution to studies in global communication and transnational populism."

Joseph Oliver Boyd-Barrett, Professor Emeritus, Bowling Green State University

"Olga Baysha's War, Peace, and Populist Discourse challenges the good-versus-evil oversimplification of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and argues that the road to peace must include a shift from antagonism to agonism. This is a valuable addition to the analyses of the ongoing crisis."

Natalia Knoblock, Associate Professor, Saginaw Valley State University
