Studying the consolidation of society in Ukraine during the war

This study examines the consolidation of Ukrainian society, which has been confronted with Russian military threats since 2014. Highlighting the role of cultural factors in this process allows for a deeper understanding of ideological underpinnings of both collective and individual consciousness, as well as the behavioral patterns within ethnocultural and national contexts, which have enabled Ukrainians to mount a heroic resistance against Russia’s aggression. A detailed analysis of the characteristics and trends in the consolidation of Ukrainian society draws on data from the annual sociological monitoring conducted by the Institute of Sociology of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (NASU) since 1992 and surveys conducted by the Sociological Group “Rating” in 2022.
