Russia's War against Ukraine

On 24 Feburary 2022, Russia began the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. With our research and expertise on Ukraine and the entire region of Eastern Europe, we at ZOiS seek to contribute to the fact-based assessment of the situation. Our online dossier gathers relevant background information in addition to recent articles and assessments by ZOiS experts.
With the Ukraine Research Network@ZOiS (UNET), we aim to network social science research on Ukraine and make it more visible. Since 2024, we have also been a partner in the Competence Network for Interdisciplinary Ukrainian Studies Frankfurt (Oder) – Berlin (KIU).

External publications by ZOiS experts in academic and other journals, edited volumes, and blogs.
