      The article mainly provides a survey of views regarding the national question, primarily of Marx, Engels, and Lenin.

      The author doesn't actually go in-depth about the history of Ukraine, and doesn't evaluate the nature of Ukraine's position. Mentions of Ukraine are limited to the first two paragraphs of the article. They don't bother drawing parallels with the historical examples in the body of the article to make a convincing argument for how the past reflects the present.
