Acknowledgments
We recognise as a journal that there are strongly differing positions on the left concerning the war and we would like to reflect those differences through debate in the journal. We are particularly interested in contributions from Ukraine itself as well as from those opposing the war in Russia. As a journal we do not endorse any particular analysis regarding the causes of the war but see our role as promoting a discussion which might play a positive role in responding to this crisis.
Disclosure statement
No potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).
