Description
"Chechnya Diary is a story about the "the story" of the war in Chechnya, the "rogue republic" that attempted to secede from the Russian Federation at the time of the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Specifically, it is the story of the Samashki Massacre, a symbol of the Russian brutality that was employed to crush Chechen resistance." "This is a first-person narrative that reads like an adventure but addresses larger theoretical issues ranging from the history of ethnic peoples and nationalities in the USSR and the Russian Federation to journalistic responsibility in crisis zones. Chechnya Diary is a crossover work that offers both the historical context and a ground-level view of a complex and brutal war."--BOOK JACKET.
