As of September 2022, the cost to Ukraine’s physical infrastructure estimated by the Kyiv School of Economics is around 103.8 billion US dollars. This is not to mention the human loss, cultural capital and agriculture. The authors of this issue address all of these topics, presenting the perspective from inside Ukraine. We publish them with an aim to encourage you to start thinking about Ukraine’s future and one key challenge it will face – overcoming this enormous loss. The reconstruction to follow will take years and the cost will be massive, especially since the Ukrainian government has promised that it will do its best to “rebuild better than before”. To make that happen the international community needs to get involved and willing to share in the costs. In addition to discussing the current situation in Ukraine, we also tackle the topic of the long-term perspective of Germany’s reunification in 1991. It is worth revisiting this historic event from various viewpoints, understanding that while it should be considered a success, lessons should still be drawn. And the future developments in Europe are still being shaped by Germany’s reunification.
