The Russian invasion of Ukraine has caused disruptions in international trade and highlighted the dependency of small open economies in Europe on imports, especially of energy. These events may have changed Europeans’ attitude towards globalization. We study two waves of representative population surveys conducted in Austria, one right before the Russian invasion and the other two months later. Our unique dataset allows us to assess changes in the Austrian public’s attitudes towards globalization and import dependency as a short-term reaction to economic turbulences and geopolitical upheaval at the onset of war in Europe. We show that two months after the invasion, anti-globalization sentiment in general has not spread, but that people have become more concerned about strategic external dependencies, especially in energy imports, suggesting that citizens’ attitudes regarding globalization are differentiated.

俄罗斯入侵乌克兰导致国际贸易中断，并凸显了欧洲小型开放经济体对进口的依赖，尤其是能源。这些事件可能改变了欧洲人对全球化的态度。我们研究了在奥地利进行的两波代表性人口调查，一波就在俄罗斯入侵之前，另一波在两个月后。我们独特的数据集使我们能够评估奥地利公众对全球化和进口依赖的态度变化，作为对欧洲战争爆发时经济动荡和地缘政治动荡的短期反应。我们表明，在入侵两个月后，反全球化情绪总体上没有蔓延，但人们更加关注战略外部依赖，尤其是在能源进口方面，
