Bohdan Bociurkiw Memorial Lecture: Andrii Krawchuk "The Impact of Russia's Intervention in Ukraine on Muslim, Jewish, and Baptist Communities"
The religious dimension of Russia's war on Ukraine is significant but, as opposed to political, economic, and military factors, largely neglected. It includes the divisive effects of the war and of policies introduced by occupation authorities on religious communities. But those communities have not been only passive observers and victims: they have demonstrated a capacity for active agency.
