Forum
In this forum, scholars contribute to a critical reevaluation of ethics review processes arguing that the existing frameworks are inadequate for the dynamic and politically charged environments in which international relations as a discipline operates. We observe the institutionalized nature of ethics reviews and their inadequacy to address the methodological and epistemological approaches typical of IR. Drawing on experiences from diverse contex…
Finding the “Field” in our “Homes” and our “Homes” in the “Field”
The “home–field” dichotomy has long been a core assumption of fieldwork in political science. As in other social science disciplines, political scientists rely on these categories to contextualize our research within particular time–space nexuses and to separate our personal lives and private dwellings and institutions from our sources, participants, and broader research environments. Although the spatial, temporal, and emotional divisions betwee…
Reframing Reflexivity
This article critically examines the role of reflexivity in the study of wars, conflicts, and authoritarianism, drawing on insights gained from researching Russia’s war against Ukraine. While reflecting on our positionalities when researching socially and politically sensitive topics is important both ethically and methodologically, we argue that it increasingly proves insufficient. The conventional, individualized understanding of reflexivity fa…
Sheltering the Nation
Since the quotidian underground spaces that serve as civilian shelters in modern wars have not been given much consideration within academic scholarship, this paper examines their sociopolitical significance in the context of the Russia–Ukraine war. In investigating Ukrainians’ uses of subterranean sites like basements and metros in the first six months following Russia’s 2022 invasion of their country, the paper illustrates how civilian shelters…
Losing and finding home twice
While much work examines internal displacement, little research has considered the phenomenon of ‘secondary internal displacement’, wherein internally displaced persons experience internal displacement a second time. Fewer, if any, studies have analysed twice IDPs’ relationships with the notion of ‘home’. To address these theoretical and empirical lacunas, this paper investigates how Ukrainian women internally displaced at the beginning of the Ru…
At Any Cost
How do populations facing external aggression view the costs and benefits of self‐defense? In Western countries, war support has been shown to follow cost–benefit calculations, resembling the moral principle of proportionality. A categorical position, in contrast, means supporting self‐defense regardless of the costs. To evaluate which moral principle populations facing external aggression follow, we conducted a conjoint experiment with 1,160 Ukr…
How and when should we (not) speak
When “Home” Becomes the “Field
The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the unpredictability and instability of fieldwork as a method for data collection. As the pandemic prompted unprecedented political dynamism and social and economic disruptions at both domestic and global levels, in-person fieldwork became challenging, if even possible, in the two years following March 2020. While scholars are again using traditional fieldwork methods, we have seen an increased use of digital…
The Russia-Ukraine war as a battle for a bordered land, not borderland
Nation‐building from (below) the grassroots
Life has profoundly changed for Ukrainian citizens since the beginning of the Russia–Ukraine war. While millions have fled Ukraine as refugees and displaced persons, others have remained in their cities to take up arms, volunteer, and/or shield for safety. Despite the devastation at all levels of society caused by Russia's ongoing attacks, Ukrainians' expressions and practices of nationhood have endured and even evolved in light of their country'…
Looking at the 'field' through a Zoom lens
For many social science scholars, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced us to re-think our approaches to research. As a result of new social distancing measures, those of us who conduct in-person qualitative and ethnographic research have faced significant challenges in accessing the populations and fields we study. Technology served as an incredibly useful tool for social interaction and research prior to the pandemic, and it has since become even mo…
Playing Near the Edge
While citizenries' responses to sociopolitical events are often studied, how youth engage with such happenings remains unclear. This article therefore analyzes 45 texts written by individuals under the age of eighteen in three of Ukraine’s regions—Zakarpattia, Volyn, and Chernihiv—following the Euromaidan of 2013-14. The study reveals the ways young Ukrainians absorbed, upheld, and (re)inscribed national narratives and discourses in light of the …
