The topics of this issue are Sanctions against Russia and Russia’s War in Ukraine on Social Media. The contributions by Gunter Deuber and Michael Rochlitz look at the impact of sanctions on the Russian economy, expecting a devastating impact. Deuber also highlights that Russia had started to prepare for sanctions a long time ago, thus provoking a stronger sanctions regime to break its protective shield. Jacqueline Evans discusses TikTok’s role both in our understanding of real-time developments in the war and its potential for misinformation; Daria Zakharova examines the core peculiarities of VK (the Russian equivalent of Facebook).
