DESCRIPTION:"Battlefront Assemblages: Exploring the War-Media Nexus in the 
 Ongoing Ukrainian Conflict."&nbsp\;Guest Speaker: Olga Boichak\,&nbsp\;Ph.
 D. Candidate in Social Science at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Pu
 blic Affairs.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;Digital media have contributed to a shifting se
 t of conditions that constitute present-day warfare. Shaping individual an
 d public perceptions of wartime realities\, online platforms facilitate th
 e emergence of new actors and strategies of political mobilization. The Uk
 rainian conflict provides a rich empirical context to study public partici
 pation in military affairs: thousands of self-mobilized individuals\, know
 n as the battlefront volunteers\, used digital media to resist an impendin
 g occupation by supporting the Ukrainian troops. Setting digitally-network
 ed activism against the backdrop of this military conflict\, this presenta
 tion explores the geopolitical implications of nonviolent grassroots resis
 tance.&nbsp\; Conversations in Conflict Studies is a weekly educational sp
 eaker series for students\, faculty\, and the community. The series\, spon
