century. The formula gente Rutheni, natione Poloni was the most popular among Galician aristocracy of that time as a way of solving the Ukrainian question. Therefore aristocrats often called themselves “Rusyns” (in the territorial sense) and insisted on their right to represent the interests of “Rus”. Initiated from time to time the attempts of Polish-Ukrainian agreement were the external expression of such moods. Often these attempts were opposed to the planned consequences – instead of combining (with subordination of Ukrainians to Polish national political objectives and keeping Ukrainian society within Polish cultural and intellectual space) they showed a rapid process of national emancipation of Ukrainians, and in some sense only deepened the ethnic conflict. On the other hand, these agreements put in order emotions only for a short time, created the illusion of unity so necessary to maintain the relative balance in the society. Eastern Galician aristocrats lost the sense of the real time in their attempt to accommodate national aspirations of Ukrainians in the patriarchal borders. In the early twentieth century they were not able to compete with a group of national democrats (endecy), who built his political and national strategies on the basis of the modern nationalism. In this sense, the aristocrats lost “Ukrainian question”. They lost not only to Ukrainians, but also to Polish national democrats who openly declared inability to return the ancient times and stood for uncompromising national struggle.

A document of open thought: Józef Obrębski’s studies on the Polesie region and debates on ethnic groups and nationality relations in Polish ethnology and sociologyThis article attempts to reconstruct and examine the concept of the ethnic diversity and nationalization process found in the writings of the Polish anthropologist and sociologist Józef Obrębski (1905-1967). It will be argued that Obrębski view on ethnic diversity and the nationalization allowed him not only to conceive of a highly original idea of nation-building process but also maintain a critical distance from the two forms of reflection and practice – “investigative modalities” – influential in the field of ethnic and national studies in prewar as well as in postwar Poland: “ethnogeography” and the “sociology of nation”. In the same time this text aims at underscoring usefulness of Obrębski ideas for contemporary analysis. Close reading of Obrębski works provides us with fresh tools for the ethnographic processual examination of the nationalization policies. It draws special attention to the process of nationalization of local populations, highlighting various and contradictory consequences of nationalization process: integration and homogenisation on the one hand and exclusions of minorities and class hierarchization of people on the other. Dokument myśli otwartej. Studia poleskie Józefa Obrębskiego a rozważania o grupach etnicznych i stosunkach narodowościowych w polskiej etnologii i socjologiiCelem artykułu jest omówienie koncepcji grup etnicznych i procesów unaradawiania wyłaniających się z prac Józefa Obrębskiego. W szczególności chodzi o wykazanie, że swoimi badaniami na Polesiu Obrębski wniósł niezwykle oryginalny wkład w badania stosunków etnicznych i narodowościowych, podając jednocześnie w wątpliwość niektóre założenia tkwiące u podstaw dwu modalności dociekań obecnych w polskich badaniach nad etnicznością i kwestiami narodowymi: czyli etnogeografii oraz socjologii narodu. Jednocześnie tekst służy ukazaniu aktualności propozycji teoretycznych i metodologicznych Obrębskiego w badaniach stosunków etnicznych i narodowościowych. Lektura pism Obrębskiego dostarcza perspektywy umożliwiającej nie tylko krytykę nacjonalizmu metodologicznego ale również daje podstawy do procesualnej, etnograficznej - uwzględniającej mikrostrukturalny wymiar władzy - analizy zjawisk etnicznych i stosunków narodowościowych. Otwiera to możliwość badania różnych niekiedy odmiennych i sprzecznych ze sobą efektów procesów unaradawiania, zarówno integracji i wyrównywania szans jak też konfliktów i wykluczenia społecznego.
