Abstract

The article analyses cooperation between Polish and Ukrainian academic institutions in the field of humanities in the recent two decades. It focuses on archaeological research conducted by scholars of both countries in the field of study of  early settlements on the territories that are now Ukraine and mutual cultural influences of Prykarpattia and Volhynia population, as well as archaeological reconstruction of Neolithic and Bronze Age migration routes. The article also examines the main directions and issues of historical research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and universities of both countries with an emphasis on problematic issues that attract attention in both societies. It summarises the results of  research conducted by ethnologists, philologists and specialists in the field of culture that are related to transformation of traditional culture on the borderland and specific features of ethnic and cultural integration of Ukrainian and Polish population. The article suggests that the Ukrainian academy and authorities should adopt the best practices of the Polish Institute of National Memory regarding de-communisation of historical memory, commemorating victims of totalitarian regimes, conducting documentary research and legal expert evaluations.
