Rationale

Ukraine became independent in 1991 after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Like any country in the post-Soviet area it started to develop its own foreign policy, to conduct structural reforms to foster its economic development and it transformed to the key actor for ensuring internationally security, stability and prosperity. After the Euromaidan (2013) and the Revolution of Dignity (2013-2014), Ukrainian society clearly defined the main directions of its foreign policy leading to the incorporation of the European aspirations in the Constitution of Ukraine in 2019.

However, independence and the development of Ukraine became challenged by internal difficulties and geopolitical consequences.

By addressing the internal developments in the country and geopolitical context from an inter/multi/transdisciplinary perspective, this workshop addresses the new political, economic and societal transformations in Ukraine aimed at increasing stability, security and sustainable development inside the country and on the European continent in post war world. Ukraine is trying to overcome different challenges caused by the geopolitical situation, geographical position and economic development, which cause many difficulties for achieving positive outcomes in economic and societal transformation processes internally and externally, especially in the cooperation with neighbouring countries.

However, these challenges could create new opportunity windows for deep and comprehensive internal transformations leading to the modernisation of all spheres of socio-economic and political life in postwar perspective. These new opportunities cover such areas, but are not limited to good governance, strengthening democracy and capacities of political institutions, supporting regional development, ensuring resilience while reaching the sustainable development goals, european perspectives.

It aims, therefore, to bring together papers on theoretical and empirical research results on Ukraine from the multidisciplinary perspectives of economy, governance, institutions, culture/identity/history, international relations, European integration, human security, political science, society and democracy, or environmental issues and how to connect them with the sustainable development and regional development.
