Discussion

The societal disruption in Ukraine is reflected in many aspects of everyday life that address social interaction. Millions of people migrated within and from the country, and that led to the loss of social circle and necessity to gain a new one in the new settlement or country. Some studies of the social capital reflect on how this form of resource is converted into economic success (Granovetter; Lin; Burt), or what role it plays in the integration of migrants in the host communities (Heering et al. , Ryan et al.). In this paper the research question is to what extent our social capital can assist migrants in forming resilience on individual and community levels not completely new in migration networks studies, however, no comprehensive study has been done on the topic with regard to Ukraine’s wartime during 2022-2024 and before. The paper aims to illustrate with the data from 2019-2021 and 2024-2025 what composition of social capital internally displaced people (IDPs) in Ukraine had and to shed a light on the situation with external migrants as well. The combination of qualitative and quantitative data is used for the answer.
