Faith and Frontlines: Religious Aspects of the Ukraine War

12 November, 2024 @ 18:00 - 19:00

🇺🇦 Are political conflicts shaped by religious actors? Join us on Tuesday 12 November in Eden at 18:00 for a lecture on religious aspects of the Ukraine war.

📖 In this lecture, Tornike Metreveli will explore the role of Orthodox Christianity in the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He further asks what is reshaping the security landscape across Europe—and whether religion itself has become a powerful weapon in modern warfare.

Dr. Tornike Metreveli is an Associate Professor at Lund University specializing in the Sociology of Religion. His research examines the intersection of religion and nationalism in Europe, with recent work focused on the role of religious actors in military conflicts, including the Ukraine war.
