This volume focuses on a highly controversial unit within the Ukrainian military, the Azov (former regiment) Brigade. Azov is known for its far-right origins but has garnered worldwide attention through its role in the defense of Mariupol in 2022. There is still confusion and obfuscation about the Azov Brigade's development since 2014 and its status today. Many conflate the unit and political Azov Movement, with the latter emerging later and using the success of the former as a launchpad for public attention. The contributors examine Azov's ideology, its roles, and the controversies around the unit. They scrutinize the history and evolution of the unit from creation to today. The contributors include Rosaria Puglisi, Bertrand de Franqueville, Ivan Gomza, Mollie Saltskog, Kacper Rekawek, Taras Tarasiuk, Petro Burkovskiy, and Przemysław Witkowski.
