Abstract
What effect did Russia’s attack have on Ukrainian society and on public
opinion? And how, in turn, did changes in public opinion and in society influence
Ukrainian identity and politics? This book, prepared by the School for Policy
Analysis, National University of Kyiv–Mohyla Academy with the participation
of the Ilko Kucheriv Democratic Initiatives Foundation, shows that contrary to the
Kremlin’s expectations, Russian aggression has in fact led to a strengthening of
the Ukrainian political nation. The book covers national and regional dimensions
of changes in the attitudes of Ukrainians during the war in the Donbas: identity
issues, political and party preferences, approaches to decentralization and the
conflict in the Donbas, economic sentiments, changes in foreign policy attitudes
toward the EU, NATO, and Russia.
