This book analyzes the transformation of Ukraine’s media landscape from a post-Soviet state to a resilient bulwark against Russian hybrid warfare. The volume addresses the critical question of how democratic discourse can survive weaponized disinformation. Using an interdisciplinary framework that combines historical analysis, media studies, and digital forensics, the contributions trace the evolution of Ukrainian journalism through key historical turning points—from the 1991 independence to the Revolution of Dignity and the ongoing full-scale invasion (with the end point in January 2026). The authors identify the “whole-of-society” approach—uniting civil society, fact-checkers, and the state—as the central method for countering Kremlin narratives without resorting to censorship. Findings demonstrate that “arming truth” requires active defense through rigorous verification and transparency rather than counter-propaganda. This book translates these lessons into a concrete roadmap for German and EU policymakers, proposing institutional designs like "prebunking" strategies to fortify European democracies against similar hybrid threats. The volume’s contributors are Danylo Poliluev-Schmidt, Yevhenii Surniaiev, Boris Schmidt, Noah MacKay, Philip Florian Braun, and Serge Brenner.
