Unyielding Resolve

Captive Nations and the Path to Freedom

About this book

This book is the first to document the history of the Captive Nations movement and the passage of the US law designating Captive Nations Week, a recognition of the peoples and nations living under repressive regimes, particularly the USSR. Arguing that Russian statecraft was heavily shaped by traditional imperialist ideology, Dobriansky provides a potent first-person account detailing the resistance to Moscow's imperial domination over non-Russian peoples in the Soviet era and beyond.
