The author has attempted to collect and systematize the opinions of various historians on the issue of Polish-Ukrainian relations in Volhynia in the context of the national politics of the Russian government between 1795 and 1862. Presenting different phases of the tsars’ politics towards the Poles and Ruthenians until the outbreak of the January Uprising, he has shown the evolution of opinions of Russian, Polish and Ukrainian historians on that issue over the centuries from the nineteenth century until modern times.
