The last, 21st issue of “Biuletyn Historii Pogranicza” (“Borderland History Bulletin”), includes studies on the processes taking place in Belarus in the last thirty years.

 — The huge wave of social rebellion that broke out in Belarus after the presidential election in 2020 surprised observers of eastern policy. It revealed not only the determination of the society, previously considered passive, but also the unexpected brutality of the authorities. We could not leave these phenomena without a comment and an attempt to explain — emphasizes Wojciech Śleszyński, PhD.
