    S03. Episode 12. Not Just Putin: Russian Support for the War in Ukraine.

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Olha Zadorozhna hosts a conversation with Olle Hammar on Russian public opinion, wartime attitudes, and what survey evidence can tell us about support for the invasion of Ukraine. Drawing on new research using data from the Levada Center and the Gallup World Poll, they discuss whether Russia’s war against Ukraine is really just Putin’s war, or whether it has broader backing inside Russian society. Together, they explore why the evidence points to a strong rally effect after the full-scale invasion, how support for Putin and optimism about the future both increased while positive attitudes toward the West and migration aspirations declined, why Moscow stands out as a partial exception, what the temporary backlash to partial mobilization actually reveals, and what all of this means for policymakers in Ukraine and the West who may still hope that internal Russian opposition will end the war.

    S03. Episode 11. How Ukrainian Migration Changed Voting in Poland?

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Olha Zadorozhna hosts a conversation with Dariia Mykhailyshyna on migration, politics, and how large inflows of migrants can reshape voting behavior. Drawing on new research on two waves of Ukrainian migration to Poland — the labor migration that followed Russia’s aggression in 2014 and the refugee inflow after the full-scale invasion in 2022 — they discuss whether more migration really leads to more support for nationalist and far-right parties. Together, they explore why the Polish case tells a more nuanced story, how local exposure to Ukrainian migrants often reduced rather than increased far-right support, why labor migrants and refugees produced different political effects, and what this reveals about the role of labor markets, social benefits, and political rhetoric in shaping public attitudes toward migration.

    S03. Episode 10. Can Poland Make Better Use of Ukrainian Talent?

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Olha Zadorozhna hosts a conversation with Ivanna Kyliushyk on migration between Ukraine and Poland — not just as a humanitarian story, but as a question of skills, talent, and long-term economic strategy. Drawing on research on the Ukraine–Poland migration skill corridor, they discuss who today’s Ukrainian migrants in Poland are, why so much talent remains underused, and what this reveals about the gap between labour market demand and migration policy. Together, they explore whether this movement should be seen as brain drain or brain circulation, why Poland struggles to retain Ukrainian talent, and what a more strategic approach could mean for both countries’ economic future and for Ukraine’s reconstruction. 💛💙 Support Ukraine:Please consider donating to support Ukraine.

    S03. Episode 9. Wartime Giving: What Keeps Donations Flowing?

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Tatyana Deryugina steps in for Olha Zadorozhna to host a conversation on charitable giving during wartime. She is joined by Margaryta Klymak, Dariia Mykhailyshyna, Andrew Kosenko, and Kathryn Vasilaky, authors of a paper on wartime fundraising in Ukraine. Together, they discuss how donations evolve during a long conflict, what motivates people to keep giving, and what Ukraine’s experience can teach us about solidarity, media attention, and collective action during war.

    S03. Episode 8. Rebuilding Ukraine: What Will It Take to Grow Again?

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Olha Zadorozhna talks with Yuriy Gorodnichenko (UC Berkeley) and Maurice Obstfeld (UC Berkeley and former IMF Chief Economist) about what it really takes to put Ukraine on a sustainable postwar growth path. Reconstruction is not just about rebuilding what was destroyed. It’s about creating the conditions for long-term investment, higher productivity, and the return of millions of Ukrainians. In this conversation, we discuss:▪ why investment — not just aid — is the key to growth▪ how Ukraine can attract foreign capital▪ what policies ensure that financial inflows translate into real economic development▪ how to avoid boom-bust cycles after large inflows▪ what the EU, US, and international institutions should do next This episode focuses on concrete policy choices that could shape Ukraine’s economic future for decades.

    S03. Episode 7. Oil Sanctions: The Long Game Against Russia’s Energy Sector.

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Olha Zadorozhna speaks with Erik Katovich, assistant professor of Economics at the University of Connecticut, about what really happens inside sanctioned industries. Focusing on Russia’s oil sector after the 2014 sanctions, they discuss how energy companies adjusted their production and investment decisions when access to Western finance and technology was restricted. The conversation reveals why sanctions may not immediately reduce oil output, but can quietly undermine future production by discouraging exploration and accelerating resource depletion. The episode explores what this dynamic response means for evaluating sanctions today — and why policymakers should look beyond short-term indicators when assessing economic pressure on Russia. 💛💙 Support Ukraine:Please consider donating to support Ukraine.

    S03. Episode 6. The Price Cap, the Shadow Fleet, and the Economics of Russian Oil Sanctions.

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Olha Zadorozhna talks with Julien Daubanes, associate professor at Technical University of Denmark. They discuss how sanctions on Russian oil are designed to reduce the Kremlin’s war revenues, how Russia has adapted by building a so-called “shadow fleet,” and why some sanctions that look tougher on paper may be less effective in practice. The conversation explores which sanction mechanisms hurt Russian oil profits the most and what policymakers in the EU, US, and G7 should prioritize going forward.

    S03. Episode 5. Science Under Fire — and How to Get Published in Top Journals.

    In this episode of Policy Implications, Olha Zadorozhna talks with Sasha Talavera, Professor of Economics at the University of Birmingham and Co-Editor of the journal Economic Modelling. They discuss how Russia’s war has reshaped Ukrainian science, the challenges researchers face today, and the sources of resilience and renewal within Ukrainian academia.
