Local and Global Impact of the War in Ukraine, is a careful selection of essays composed by twenty experts from inside and outside of Ukraine. They encapsulate the most important issues stemming from the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. The contributions provide valuable insights into the past present, and future consequences of the conflict in Ukraine in local and global contexts. As the world is radically changing in response to the war, it is necessary to communicate this knowledge to academe and the wider public. The contributors discuss the invasion and its security impacts such as Russia's use of private militias as well as diplomacy and deterrence theory. Sensitive topics such as migration, minorities and refugees fleeing the war are explored in detail. The book concludes with close attention to the theoretical and practical implications of the war on Ukraine as they impact world order and the survival of democracy in Ukraine and beyond. This work was supported by the Charles University Institute of Sociological Studies of the Faculty of Social Sciences, the European Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, U.S. Fulbright Foundation and the Academy of Humanities and Sciences of the City University of New York.

In this book, an international team of urban anthropologists, sociologists, and ethnographers argue that politics, intergroup relations, and development in cities cannot be understood without reference to the local contexts that endow each city with specific characteristics. They also show how local urban economic, social, and cultural lives are influenced by powerful external forces. In these 'glocal' regards, the authors demonstrate how city images, borders, and social processes such as migration, tourism, and local development must be seen in broader contexts. The contributors examine them through the lenses of foreign investment, migration, and history. The volume takes an interdisciplinary approach and employs a range of theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches. Contributors’ multidisciplinary expertise and insights about spaces and places are applied to nine unique cities across three continents.
