This article provides a limited and selective review of the academic literature on Ukraine’s economic transformation, specifically 1) recapping what have been the major trends in this research; 2) what has been learned; and, 3) what is still useful to investigate in a future research agenda. From a metaanalysis one can draw quite a few optimistic conclusions. First, Ukraine as a laboratory for academic analysis in the received paradigm of the economics discipline using state of the art meth odology, attracting solid scholars, both established and recent PhDs, is on a strong footing, and very much on the radarscreen of the Anglophone profession. Inasmuch as most European economists with global ambition invariably publish much of their work in English, this means that the interest in Ukraine is global, or at least in the North Atlantic sphere.
