520 _a"In 2020 Belarus made headlines around the world when protests erupted in the aftermath of a fraught presidential election. Andrew Wilson explores both Belarus's complicated road to nationhood and its politics and economics since it gained independence in 1991.

Wilson also examines the prospects for Europe as a whole of either Lukashenka's downfall or his survival with Russian support"--
