SUMMARY:The ‘Democratic Fallout’ of the War in Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]With a forced referendum in Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine and the proclaimed annexation of these four territories by Russia\, democracy and sovereignty of a former Soviet state are once again undercut by hegemonial aspirations and big power competition. At the same time\, Russians are fleeing their homeland in large numbers after the announced that he would draft 300\,000 reservists. These developments as well as the challenges posed to democratic institutions and practices in Central and Eastern Europe – and beyond – raise questions concerning the broader implications of the war in Ukraine. \nJoin ACG and 1014 for another discussion as part of their virtual series Democracies und Pressure: Challenges for the Global Liberal Order. We will be joined by Dr. Alexander Cooley\, Claire Tow Professor of Political Science and Vice Provost for Academic Centers and Libraries at Barnard College and Academy Adjunct Faculty at Chatham House\, and Prof. Dr. Gwendolyn Sasse\, Director of the Centre for East European and International Studies (ZOiS) and Einstein Professor for the Comparative Study of Democracy and Authoritarianism at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F3716650800253%2FWN_-npB6fl4TICcOjy006Q6Xw” css=”.vc_custom_1665080055550{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Alexander Cooley is the Claire Tow Professor of Political Science at Barnard College.
