Analyzing Economic Impacts of International Unrest

Incidents of international unrest, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, can have major repercussions for the U.S. economy. Watch as we take a closer look in our recorded webinar.

In this webinar, the IMPLAN team examines the overlap of regionality in terms of the industrial gains and losses across the United States to see if policy interventions might be required to mitigate economic losses to certain places due to international unrest. We explore a similar approach to the work of the economists in WWII while looking at the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. However, instead of examining the supply chains of antagonists, this work uses a net analysis to examine how the United States is impacted by sanctions against Russia as well as aid sent to Ukraine.
