The issue of creation of good neighborly political relations with the nations belonging to the newly born in 1918 independent Republic of Poland were among the pressing problems of early Polish eastern policy. In the group of Polish intellectuals there were university professors, who often stressed the need good neighborly relations in this part of Europe. One of the propagators of the Central and Eastern European agreement was professor and rector of the Stefan Batory University in Vilnius Marian Ursyn Zdziechowski (1861–1938). The political thought of Marian Zdziechowski on the Ukrainian issue was characterized as harmony with the eastern national minority. It remained in line with the general political formula of Polish conservatives and their political postulates concerning the eastern policy of Poland. It is worth noting that Zdziechowski the unlike his conservative colleagues, such as Bocheński brothers, Jan Stanisław Łoś and many others, had an unusually realistic view on the issue of treatment of the Ukrainian minority. He was far from fanatical optimism of Polish-Ukrainian reconciliation, but even further from the nationalistic politics enlarged by the National Democracy, which assumed mass polonization of the Ukrainians. Zdziechowski’s program can be included in the concept of assimilation of the Ukrainians with simultaneous respect for their rights. His views were more akin to the postulates of Polish socialists, such as Leon Wasilewski and Tadeusz Hołówko, than to his native conservative views.

L wów przez trzy tygodnie (1–22 listopada 1918 r.) był miastem podzielonym. Ukraińcy, którzy próbowali go zająć, natknęli się na spontaniczny opór mieszkańców. Żydzi, któ- rzy po ludności polskiej stanowili drugą pod względem liczebności społeczność mia- sta, powołali własną milicję i ogłosili neutralność. Nie przestrzegali jej jednak, a mili- cja współpracowała czynnie z wojskiem ukraińskim. Po wyparciu Ukraińców przez obrońców Lwowa i ochotnicze oddziały przybyłe z Krakowa w mieście doszło do rozru- chów o podłożu bandyckim, których ofiarą padły 44 osoby (33 żydów i 11 chrześcijan), a 443 zostały ranne. To oficjalne dane ustalone przez Nadzwyczajną Rządową Komisję Śledczą pracującą pod prezydencją sędziego Zygmunta Rymowicza. Zamieszki trwały kilka dni (22–24 listopada 1918 r.). Polskie władze wojskowe zareagowały z opóźnie- niem, co sprzyjało ekscesom. Artykuł dowodzi, że w świetle narodowości (wyznania) ofiar rozruchy miały podłoże kryminalne i bandyckie.

F or a period of three weeks (1–22 November 1918), Lviv was a divided city. In their attempt to conquer it, the Ukrainians faced spontaneous opposition from its residents. The Jews, who were the second largest group of residents after the Poles, formed their own militia and announced neutrality. However, they did not follow this announcement, and the militia actively cooperated with the Ukrainian army. After the Ukrainians had been forced by the defendants out of Lviv and voluntary units had arrived from Cracow, the city fell into criminal riots which cost the lives of 44 people (33 Jews and 11 Christians), and 443 people were wounded. The official data were established by the Extraordinary Government Investigation Committee chaired by Judge Zygmunt Rymowicz. The riots lasted several days (22–24 November 1918). The delayed reaction of the Polish military authorities exacerbated the disturbances. The author proves that in terms of the natio - nality (religion) of the victims, the riots were of a criminal nature.

Population movement is an important factor in the socio-economic development of a country and its individual regions. Its geographical characteristics make it possible to identify, as quickly as possible, areas of depopulation and those where population flows clearly increase local and regional resources. In stable conditions, this provides an opportunity for a well-considered migration policy; in emergency situations, this becomes very difficult. The problems of contemporary migration geography in Ukraine are particularly relevant and painful in the context of Russia’s military attack and invasion of the territory of sovereign Ukraine in 2014 and a full-scale war since 24 February 2022. The aim of this article is to attempt to characterize migration in Ukraine, outlining the causes, directions, scale, intensity and dynamics of the processes over as broad a time horizon as possible, with a focus on the two sub-periods 2007–2013 and 2014–2021. Data for 2014–2021 are presented without taking into account the temporarily occupied territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, the city of Sevastopol and part of the temporarily occupied territories in the Luhansk and Donetsk regions, as these data are not available. According to the study, the number of migrants who crossed the state border of Ukraine only after Russia launched a full-scale war against Ukraine (UN data as of 15.11.2022) amounted to 15.3 million people, of whom 7.6 million remained abroad.

Cultural Participation of the Studentd from Ukraine in PolandAlmost 40 thousand Ukrainians study in Poland. This is the second largest student group in our country. The main reason for them to study here is to get a diploma but an academic period is also a time of intense cultural participation. In this article I analyze the perception of culture by Ukrainians. What do art and culture mean for them? What they appreciate and what they reject in this sphere. Do they attend high culture events or they prefer popular culture? Finally, what is the difference between cultural participation in Poland and in Ukraine? This article is based on 50 qualitative interviews among Ukrainian students in Warsaw. Uczestnictwo w polskiej kulturze imigrantów edukacyjnych z UkrainyW Polsce studiuje prawie 40 tysięcy Ukrainek i Ukraińców. Jest to największa po Polakach grupa narodowościowa studentów w naszym kraju. Przyjeżdżają oni tutaj głównie po to, żeby zdobyć dyplom, ale studia to również czas intensywnej partycypacji kulturalnej. W artykule przyglądam się postrzeganiu kultury przez Ukraińców. Jakie znaczenie przypisują kulturze i sztuce, co w niej cenią, a co odrzucają? Czyu czestniczą w kulturze wysokiej, czy popularnej? Co jest zachętą do uczestnictwa, a co stanowi bariery? W końcu, jaka jest różnica między uczestnictwem w kulturze w Polsce i na Ukrainie? Artykuł powstał na podstawie 50 wywiadów jakościowych przeprowadzonych wśród studiujących w Warszawie.

The authors of the study present the development of legal and social status of the ethnic minority of Ruthenians and Ukrainians in Slovakia during the existence of the Czechoslovak state. Based on recent scholarship, in the first part of the study the authors characterize basic features of the minority and explain factors and circumstances which contributed to the annexation of the territories populated by this minority by the Czechoslovak state. The fact that Ruthenians and Ukrainians lived continuously on the annexed territory, as well as the factor of establishing of the formally autonomous region of Subcar- pathian Ruthenia, meant that members of this minority were characterized by several specifics which are dealt with in detail in the study. The democratic regime of the Czechoslovak Republic (1918–1938) enabled development of self-governed minority bodies in the benefit of the members of the community. After the restoration of Czechoslovakia and the definitive separation from the majority of ethnicities, the new political conditions leads to artificial inter- ventions in the ethnic minority ethnogenesis. This has led to a decline in its number and weakening of national attributes. After the collapse of the communist regime, the development of the minority is limited, especially, by its partition and some temporary consequences of social transformation in Slovakia.

In the article the results of survey research on the assessment of errors made in Polish by Ukrainians and Poles, as stated by Ukrainian students learning Polish as a foreign language, are shown. This research was a part of twofold research in which students from Poland participated as well, assessing the character and importance of linguistic errors made by foreigners and native speakers of Polish. At first. the results were shown by means of traditionally counting up the number of particular responses. Nonetheless, the information about how much and what kind of additional data could be gained thanks to elements of statistical analysis of data conducted on the same survey is shown in this paper. The results may convince one that statistical analysis of pilot or exploratory nature is worth conducting even with a small research sample, as it allows for highlighting particular problems which should be taken into account while preparing research tools for proper research.

The aim of the article is to analyze the novel Brisbane by Eugene Vodolazkin in terms of using national stereotypes in the description of two nationalities — the Ukrainians and the Poles. The author is particularly interested in how Vodolazkin perceives the manifestation of their identity. What determines the value of this novel from the point of view of stereotypes is the historical background — the times of communism, perestroika, the difficult 1990s, up to the present day. Thanks to this, the time in which the novel’s plot takes place allows us to capture the historical events that have affected the failure of Soviet identity and the consolidation of contemporary Ukrainian national identity. The analysis shows that Vodolazkin based his character’s characteristics on national stereotypes known for many years.

Целью статьи является анализ романа Брисбен Евгения Водолазкина с точки зрения использования национальных стереотипов в описании украинцев. Автор особенно заинтресован в том, как Водолазкин воспринимает их проявление своей идентичности и индивидуальности. Во многом ценность этого романа с точки зрения стереотипов определяет исторический фон — времена коммунизма, перестройки, „трудных” девяностых, вплоть до наших дней. Благодаря этому время, в которое происходит действие романа, отражает исторические события, повлиявшие на поражение советской идентичности и укрепление современной украинской национальной идентичности. Анализ показывает, что характеристики своих персонажей Водолазкин основывал на национальных стереотипах, известных на протяжении многих лет.

The purpose of this article is to compare the perceived destination image of Poland as seen by Russians and Ukrainians. This study contributes to understanding the process of how the image of a destination is shaped, the new contribution being the comparison of the image of Poland as perceived by visitors and non-visitors of two nations, which until 1991 were a part of one state. The study is based on a questionnaire consisting of 16 statements on the perceived destination image of Poland. A 5-point Likert scale was used in the survey. A total of 710 people were examined, including 348 Russians and 362 Ukrainians. The reliability of the survey was assessed using Cronbach's alpha index. The hypotheses verification, using Student's t-test, showed that Russians and Ukrainians perceived Poland as an attractive country in terms of tourism. No major diferences between Russians and Ukrainians were observed in the perception of Poland as a tourist destination. Moreover, no influence of past experience was noted on the shaping of the perceived destination image of Poland. Additionally, some managerial implications of significant relevance to destination marketing are discussed, and future directions for research are outlined.

International labour migration is a global process that has affected the populations of all countries and continents. Today, migrants face a new additional barrier - the COVID-19 pandemic, which has drastically affected all forms of human mobility. Today, labour-based migration from Ukraine is directed mainly to EU Member States. The main motives for international labour migration is the potential of earning money, financial security of the family etc. Accordingly, the consequence of international migration is the inflow of money into the country of migrant origin. Remittances from migrant workers are an important source of income for Ukraine. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been an increase in migrant remittances, contributing to the development of households, human potential, the reduction of poverty and inequality, and the inflow of foreign currency. This article proposes an econometric model of the impact of migrant remittances on the stabilisation of the country's economy during the pandemic. As a result of the calculations, it was found that the income from people working abroad initially reduces the deviation of GDP from the equilibrium trend, but over time there is a clear procyclical impact. This feature is favourable for the Ukrainian economy and may mean that migrant transfers in times of crisis help to overcome the effects of global economic downturns.

In 1947, as the result of the Vistula Operation, Lemkos were resettled to the Western and Northern Territories of Poland, this making them abandon their material possessions which remained at their former domicile prone to devastation. Certain Lemkos resented those developments to the extent that following 1956 some returned to their native land, determined to save their tangible and intangible culture. Amateur artistic projects were revived, and it was decided that traces of Lemko tangible heritage were to be taken care of. This led to the concept of creating an ethnographic Lemko museum. In 1968, using Teodor Gocz’s farmstead at Zyndranowa, a memento hall was created; it later assumed the name of the Museum of Lemko Culture. The institution continuously faced challenges: it lacked financing and factual supervision for its operation. Despite this, the Museum collection continued growing, and new buildings were safeguarded for the purpose. The Museum’s creators aimed not only at preserving and displaying traces of Lemko tangible heritage, but also at maintaining bonds of the displaced Lemkos with their former homeland. With time, the Museum also began playing an important role in preserving the Lemko ethnic identity.

Polska jest krajem z długą historią emigracji, ale dzisiaj ma ona także nową tożsamość jako “kraj imigracji”. Artykuł prezentuje wyniki badań przeprowadzonych w 2019 r. wśród 26 Ukraińców i 6 osób z innych krajów, pracujących w Płocku. Analizuje przyczyny ich decyzji o przyjeździe właśnie do Płocka, a nie do innego miasta. Poszukuje także odpowiedzi na pytania, dlaczego zostają albo – w przypadku Ukraińców – kilka razy wracają do Płocka, nie szukając pracy w innych miastach.

Poland is a country with a long history of emigration, but today it has a new identity as a ‘country of immigration’. The article presents findings from my research in 2019 among 26 Ukrainians and six other foreigners working in Płock. It analyses the reasons why they came particularly to Płock rather than to another city, and also why they have remained there, or – in the case of the Ukrainians – return several times to Płock, rather than seeking work in other cities.

The topic of Ukrainian-Russian relations is very important in the alternative history novels of the Ukrainian writer Vasily Kożeljanko (1957-2008). Alternative histories novels "Parade in Moscow" (1997), "Kotigoroško" (2000), "Terorium" (2001), "FalseNostradamus" (2001) novels appeared in an independent Ukraine when there was no longer a Soviet censorship. In alternative historical prose, heroes can be embedded in the history of an active person or as fictional characters who carry the ethno-stereotypical lines of their community and have ethno-stereotypes about other peoples. Ethnic stereotypes of Ukrainians and Russians and stereotypes of Ukraina and Russia can be mythologised. Relations between a stronger and weaker, older and younger, colonizing country and colonized country are presented as a conflict between Strong Russia and a weak Ukraine, but also a strong Ukraine of weak Russia. Russian Empire in the of Kożeljankos alternative histories novels presented negatively.

The Ukrainian community in Poland has actively participated in the process of Polish- Ukrainian dialogue and reconciliation. Tragically experienced due to the Polish-Ukrainian conflict during the Second World War and displacement to the Soviet Ukraine and within the “Vistula” Action, the majority of the community’s members understood that if they want to live in harmony with Polish neighbours, they should join the Polish-Ukrainian historical dialogue. Hence the initiatives and gestures of reconciliation, supporting the actions of the Polish and Ukrainian authorities in this direction and the hierarchies of churches in Poland and Ukraine. This dialogue, however, encountered resistance from Polish and Ukrainian nationalist circles, who blame the other side for the harm they suffered.
