Comments Off on Україна у світі без правил

Світ входить у фазу неороялізму – епоху, де міжнародні правила більше не працюють, а безпекові гарантії стають лише тимчасовими домовленостями. У такому світі виживають не ті, хто мають рацію, а ті, хто є потрібними. Враховуючи це, пропонується розглянути низку практичних пропозицій для України, пов’язаних з тим, як не стати «трофеєм» нових глобальних еліт, як зберегти суб’єктність, а також як перетворити силу, економіку та дипломатію на інструменти виживання і впливу.

Comments Off on Ukraine in a World Without Rules

The world is entering a phase of neo-royalism – an era, where international rules no longer function, and security guarantees become just temporary arrangements. In such a world, survival depends not on who is right, but on who is needed. Taking this into account, it is suggested to consider a number of practical steps for Ukraine: how not to become a “trophy” of new global elites, how to preserve agency, and how to turn military strength, the economy, and diplomacy into instruments of survival and influence.

Comments Off on Explanatory potential of the postcolonial approach for understanding the Russia–Ukraine war

The 2022 full-scale Russia’s invasion of Ukraine exposed the limits of mainstream IR theories in explaining developments in Eastern Europe. This publication argues that a postcolonial approach helps explain both Russia’s aggressive behaviour and Ukraine’s desperate resistance by examining historical power relations, coloniser-colonised dichotomy, neocolonial practices, and the applicability of the concepts of the Other and Subaltern to Russian perceptions of Ukrainians.

Comments Off on Navigating Uncertainty: Exit Strategies from the Temporary Protection of Ukrainian Refugees

The policy paper examines the challenge of moving from the Temporary Protection Directive to a durable solution for Ukrainian refugees. It proposes a sustainable approach that protects refugees while taking into account Ukraine’s aspirations amid ongoing uncertainty. While aimed mainly at decision makers, it also offers useful context for journalists and political experts on the future of Ukrainian refugees. (PDF) Olena Khylko, Malwina Talik

Comments Off on Navigating Global South’s Ambivalent Stance on Russia-Ukraine War

The publication reveals the complexity of the Global South’s stance on the Russia-Ukraine war within a broader context of a changing world order. It is explored how the positions of the Global South countries are influenced by their vision of own national interests, divergent perceptions of the causes and possible consequences of the war, and of the roles of the parties involved with regard to the prospects of reshaping the global system of international relations.
