Silicon Curtain | Olga Onuch - Zelensky is Forced to make Decisions that are Existential to the Survival of Ukraine. @SiliconCurtain | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Prof. Olga Onuch has written what has been described as the definitive portrait of Volodymyr Zelensky, an extraordinary book called “The Zelensky Effect”. In this book, she explains the paradox of Zelensky as a leader and but also entertainer, businessman and risk-taker. She explores Ukraine’s national history to show how its now-iconic president reflects the hopes and frustrations of the country’s first ‘independence generation’. Interweaving social and political background with compelling episodes from Zelensky’s life and career, this is the story of Ukraine told through the journey of one man who has come to symbolise his country, and perhaps uniquely in the world is forced to make decisions that are existential to the survival of his country.

Prof. Olga Onuch is Professor (Chair) in Comparative and Ukrainian Politics at the University of Manchester (making her the first-ever holder of a Full Professorship in ‘Ukrainian Politics’ in the English-speaking world). Olga joined UoM in 2014, after holding research posts at the University of Toronto, the University of Oxford, and Harvard University.
