SUMMARY:Lecture Series Russia´s war, Ukraine’s resistance | “Dynamics
  of identity and attitudes toward peace and war in Ukraine?” – Karina 
 Korostelina
DESCRIPTION:The current lecture series is aimed at revealing some of the a
 spects that pre-defined and framed the current occasions. On the one hand,
  the lectures will present the development of Ukrainian identity, nation a
 nd sovereignty in different historical context and under various, often co
 ntradicting factors. On the other hand, important part of the series is to
  show how Russia attempted to influence the country from several angles, o
 ften using media, culture and religion as tools of spreading narratives ha
 rmful for Ukrainian nation-building. Based on several decades of the study
  of the dynamics of social identity and perceptions of history in Ukraine,
  Dr. Karina Korostelina will discuss major narratives of national identity
  in Ukraine. She will show how the war has impacted the identification wit
 h the Ukrainian nation in both its salience and meaning. While a clear maj
 ority of Ukrainians independent of age identified as European, older gener
 ations still feel some connections to Russian culture and the Soviet legac
 y. In discussing the effects of war, Dr. Korostelina will specifically con
 centrate on the current study that explored the social psychological proce
 sses and wartime experiences informing the dispositions of ordinary Ukrain
 ians toward peace. This research provides understanding of how ordinary pe
 ople with different war experiences – those displaced to frontline citie
 s by war and local resident there -- think about the costs of peace amidst
  enduring war and develop attitudes toward the war parties, ceasefires, ne
 gotiations, and peace settlement scenarios. Karina V. Korostelina is a Pro
 fessor and Director of Peace Lab on Reconciling Conflicts and Intergroup D
 ivisions and of the Program on History, Memory, and Conflict at the Carter
  School for Peace and Conflict Resolution, George Mason University, USA. P
 rofessor Korostelina is a social psychologist whose work focuses on social
  identity and dynamics of identity and power in protracted social conflict
 s. Her recent publications include the book "Neighborhood Resilience and U
 rban Conflict: The Four Loops Model" (Routledge, 2022) and co-edited book 
 "History Can Bite - History Education in Divided and Post-War Societies" (

 ts and recently receive a fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Studies
