N2  - The aim of this four-part paper, prepared on the basis of field surveys carried out in the spring of 2022, is to leave some record for history of how the current war against Ukraine is affecting Russian society. In his introduction, Mikhail Rozhanskiy explains the methods of the field survey that served as collective material, and the approaches used, mainly in sociology, anthropology and cultural studies. The paper comprises two research articles and two field notes. Elena Korkina shows the emergence of a “temporality of crisis” made up of ruptures and accommodations with the “chronopolitics” of the Russian State, in which individuals partly divert their attention from the ongoing war against Ukraine. Mikhail Rozhanskiy sets out the different reactions to the war from different generations, while also showing the heuristic limitations of this approach. Nika Podolsky identifies three types of use of culture in times of war - but far from the fighting and the bombings themselves. And Lidia Shantina lists the ways in which the interviewees resort to the canons of culture and literature, with four discursive strategies: trauma, loss, apocalypse and “holy war”
