dc.description.abstractRussia’s full-scale invasion on Ukraine on February 24, 2022, shook the world by bringing war into the heart of Europe and took most of Ukrainians by surprise.1 In the scales of its brutality, destruction and targeting of the civil population, it pushed an estimated 7.8 million Ukrainians to search for shelter in the European countries.2 It also made the EU review its reception policies as well as change, - at least for the time being, - the way it responds to the influx of people fleeing their home countries. Displacement by war massively transformed mobility flows from Ukraine, a country which since its independence in 1991 became one of the key sending countries of the labour force to the EU.3 The post-February movement of people, drastic and unprecedented as it is, thus did not emerge ahistorically. In this chapter, we reflect on the current situation of Ukrainians fleeing the war and their decision-making as to employment and settlement. We map out three areas that require further careful examination and more empirical research, but which so far seem to fail to get due attention in the current literature. The first is the fragmentation of the experience of those who flee the war. In other words, we ask why it is so hard to (and important not to) speak of a unified profile of a “Ukrainian refugee.” The second issue we discuss is about decision-making and experiences linked to the labour market integration of those who fled the war, particularly in connection to fragmented experiences of war and diversity of needs and various forms of resources. Within the third area, we contextualize how the already existing networks of labour migrants in the EU responded to and were affected by the war in Ukraine.en_US
