David R. Marples is Distinguished University Professor in the Department of History and Classics at the University of Alberta, Canada.
"Overall, this book offers food for thought on a number of
important issues relevant to understanding developments in the
Donbas and their wider consequences. It is eminently accessible in
a way which will make it of interest to more general readers as
well as scholars and students of international relations, law and
history. Although focused upon the Donbas region in the period
prior to the start of the much greater conflict in Ukraine as a
whole in 2022, many of the observations carry wider relevance in
making sense of the current war."

*LSE Review of Books*
"It is here that Marples’s gifts for editing such a collection
shine through. As the book’s title promises, the origins and
contexts of the Donbas conflict are elucidated, and the final
chapter effectively brings the work to a close by offering possible
futures and a better state of peace for all involved—via a
negotiated settlement based on power sharing, deployment of
peacekeepers and election monitors, amnesty for combatants, and
establishment of a truth commission."
