New !! @eepolitics.bsky.social Symposium ‘Understanding Ukraine’s resistance, resilience and reform in the face of Russia’s war’ tandfonline.com/toc/fjcs21/4...

Last month in Kyiv, I met up with the writer Artem Chapeye, a pacifist who joined the army in 2022 remains there. His decision exemplifies how Ukrainians are taking matters into their own hands, no matter what Western leaders do. @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/article/2018...

Artem Chapeye once spent his time translating Gandhi and Chomsky and getting published in The New Yorker. Then, in 2022, he joined the army.
