Any war has complex social and ecological consequences. The authors in this volume address many topics from multifacted perspectives, based on experience and history of the Russian invasion into Ukraine, and with an additional focus on women, women philosophers and scientists:Gender and cultural dimensions of war; Ecocide and environmental destruction in Ukraine; Ukrainian women’s roles, identities, and resistance during wartime; sexual and gender-based violence as a weapon of war; urban destruction and cultural reconstruction; environmental and health consequences of war (including the Kakhovka Dam disaster); Ecocide as a global and existential challenge; Ukrainian environmental activism and ecological worldviews; Information warfare and propaganda; Linguistic and cultural representations of ecocide; internet and meme culture in wartime Ukraine; ecofeminist and literary perspectives on war; psychoanalytic and religious interpretations of war and trauma.This makes a book not only a compelling and urgent read; the authors contribute to and advance the research on the interrelationships of war, gender, and ecology, which have mostly been studied separately.
