The War in Ukraine, the Post-Cold War Order, and Europe's Security

Vladimir Putin’s war of aggression against Ukraine has shaken Europe and the world. The unprovoked invasion of a sovereign state is a major breach of international law to which the United States, the European Union, and allied countries reacted by imposing wide-ranging economic sanctions. Are we entering a new phase of international instability in a multipolar world? What does it mean for our historical perspective that European affairs suddenly have become urgent again for the international order? The panel will address the challenges Putin’s war against Ukraine poses for the post-Cold War order and for European security.

The event is organized by Dr. Wencke Meteling (Catholic University/Universität Marburg) und is jointly convened by the Working Group on International History (German Historical Association), Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS), the Association for Military History (AKM e.V.), and the German Historical Institute Washington (GHI).

Moderator: Dr. Daniel S. Hamilton, Senior Non-resident Fellow at the Brookings Institution and Senior Fellow in the Foreign Policy Institute of Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies.
