Abstract: The anticipation of Ukraine's postwar reconstruction has led to an avalanche of academic and policy analyses on how to rebuild the country. To help the profession navigate this rapidly expanding literature, this article provides a synthesis and critical overview of the proposals. After describing the historical context, damages inflicted by Russian aggression, and funds required for Ukraine's recovery, we summarize principles, phases, and policies needed to deeply modernize the country. The reconstruction of Ukraine should provide a template for other recovery programs.
