This is an automatically translated description

In the essays in this collection, twenty Ukrainian intellectuals reflect on the phenomenon of social bridges and walls. Why do they exist? Do bridges always promote understanding? Or do they sometimes allow us to cross boundaries? Or are walls something that necessarily divides? Or maybe sometimes they protect? With whom and how should we build bridges, and from whom should we defend ourselves with walls?

The result of the media project of the Ukrainian Centre of PEN International, originally published in the magazine «Novoe Vremya», under the same cover.
