War Winners and Builders

In Russia, many war winners depend on continued coercion, emergency spending, and a permanent war economy. In Ukraine, many wartime skills and networks can be converted into reconstruction, defense technology, logistics, infrastructure, and integration with Western standards. Not every veteran, contractor, or wartime actor will become constructive, and postwar politics will still be difficult. But the broad incentive structure is different: one system rewards continuation of coercion, while the other has a path toward rebuilding.
