This issue brings together sociological analyses shaped by the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war, which expanded considerably in 2022. Olga Senina and Julia Dementienko focus on life in St. Petersburg since the war began. Both authors draw attention to societal changes; shifts in everyday life; and the ways in which people navigate a reality dominated by repression, propaganda, and fear. Elena Nikiforova and Maria Tysiachniouk delve into the ways the war has disrupted transnational lives. Together, these essays provide a multifaceted exploration of how the Russian-Ukrainian war has reshaped borders, mobility, and daily life.
