Transitional Justice in Post-Euromaidan Ukraine

The book focusses on transitional justice policies implemented in Ukraine since the beginning of 2014. The author comes to the conclusion that there is no evidence supporting the thesis that the implementation of these policies provides visible effects in terms of democratisation of the country.
