London Ukrainian Review

The London Ukrainian Review is an open-access journal that tackles global challenges through the prism of Ukraine while adopting a distinctly internationalist perspective on the Ukrainian past and present. It not only counters the clichéd portrayal of Ukrainian culture, society, and politics but also highlights forgotten aspects of history, firmly situating the country in the global context. The journal’s pool of contributors unites creative practitioners, writers, academics, policymakers, and Ukraine experts, providing an independent platform for cross-cultural dialogue.
