This study examines democracy promotion during interstate war, focusing on Polish NGO efforts during Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. By examining the efforts of Polish NGOs during the ongoing war in Ukraine, the study explores the strategies, areas of focus, and shifts in approaches compared to the pre-war period. The objective is to shed light on the rationale behind democracy promotion; delineate the evolving roles, approaches, and tactics of democracy promoters; and draw lessons learned. Bridging the gap in existing knowledge, the study explores dynamics during active conflict offering perspectives from Polish NGOs that have been engaged in democracy promotion in Ukraine since the 1990s.

Drawing on the concept of strategic narrative, this article explores how Russia’s issue narratives on the Ukraine events were reproduced by local narrative agents. I conducted content analysis of texts published in Japan from 2014 through 2019, and regression analysis to examine whether authors’ reproduction of Russia’s narratives is correlated to their affiliation with area studies branches (Russian studies, studies of other post-communist countries) and disciplines; epistemic linkage with the Kremlin-sponsored Valdai Discussion Club; and publication political stance (communist, progressive, conservative, neo-right) and types (peer-reviewed journals, think-tank reports, popular magazines).

Despite Russia’s relatively low ranking on gender equality, recent emigrants who left the country after February 2022 exhibit significantly higher levels of gender egalitarianism compared to their counterparts in Russia. This study investigates whether these attitudes are attributable to socio-demographic factors such as education and urban residence, or if deeper ideological and political factors play a role. Using data from the OutRush project on Russian emigration after 2022 and the World Values Survey, we analyze two key questions: Do recent emigrants demonstrate more egalitarian attitudes than socio-demographically similar Russians? Does gender equality of host countries influence emigrants’ attitudes? Our findings suggest that emigrants exhibit higher levels of gender egalitarianism than comparable groups in Russia, even after controlling for socio-demographic predictors. These differences persist after controlling for socioeconomic predictors, reflecting deeply ingrained values that were probably developed by the pre-migration experiences of political opposition actions and social activism. The results challenge theories of rapid acculturation and highlight the role of self-selection as a key factor underlying gender egalitarian attitudes.
