Abstract

The article is devoted to studying problems of the Polish social movement in the Right-Bank Ukraine in terms of imperial state-building during the XIXth century in the context of modern scientific discourse. It is found values and philosophical principles and the peculiarities of the Russian imperial project in the Right-Bank Ukraine during the nineteenth century. The author analyzed the possibilities of the using the methodological techniques of the mental mapping, centerperipheral communication and interdisciplinary approaches to the research of the Polish social movement’s problems in the Russian imperial state-building conditions. The specific feature of Russian statehood’s project during the nineteenth century was the growing homogenization and unification of empire’s social space that is fully consistent with the task of modernization as the demands of time. On the other hand, the expansion of imperial space, including mental, led to conflict with alien ethnic population of the regions that tried to implement their own programs nation-building. The growth of national consciousness of Poles led to tough resistance from the authorities and ultimately to open conflict with the central and regional administrations, which sought to introduce nationalist model of governance. The incorporation of the Right-Bank Ukraine to the imperial society included the destruction of the remnants of socio-cultural and legal traditions of the former «Rzeczpospolita». Accordingly, any attempt of the local Polish community to preserve these traditions, including the different forms of public activities was exposed to the system of imperial prohibitions. Consequently, the Poles of the region had very limited opportunities to realize their social and cultural needs. The author came to the conclusion, that these restrictions have prompted them to the conspiratorial and insurgent activity. The spreading of positivistic ideas and implementation of the program «organic work» during the second-half of the XIXth century led to the intensification of cultural, socio-economic, scientific and charitable activity of the Polish patriots and contributed to the formation of new values and philosophical principles of social movements of the late XIX – early XX century.
