    The goal of the work is to analyze political practices and experiments of ethnic separation of Ukrainians of the Carpathian region in the 1930s in the Second Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The methodology is based on the use of general scientific and special historical methods. Based on the principles of historicism, objectivity, critical evaluation of sources, methods of analysis and synthesis, ethnological methods are widely used in the research: comparative-historical, analytical-typological.Scientific novelty. On the basis of domestic and foreign archival sources and scientific literature, an attempt was made to substantiate the peculiarities of Polish ethnopolitics regarding the separation of Hutsuls, Lemkos, and Boykos as representatives of separate regional nations/ethnic groups from Ukrainians with the aim of their separation, assimilation, and denationalization.Conclusions. In the 1930s, the state ethnopolitics of the Second Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was aimed at building the loyalty of representatives of national minorities to Polish statehood, denying and eradicating any manifestations of Ukrainianness. The strengthening of the policy of state separation and assimilation was facilitated by the adoption of laws, the formation of associations, and the promotion of scientific theories of the ethnic separateness of the Ukrainian population of the Carpathian region. The bright identity of the Ukrainian culture of the mountain population of the Carpathians was emphasized by the Poles in order to separate them from the Ukrainian people. The Society of Friends of Hutsul Region, the Society for the Development of Eastern Lands, the Union of the Farm Nobility, and the Apostolic Administration of Lemkiv Region were important tools for the practical implementation of the policy of regionalism. The activism of the Polish authorities regarding the denationalization of the Carpathian Ukrainians mobilized the Ukrainian political leadership to socio-political opposition, the development of its own national position by conducting public and political work on the ground, intensifying the activity of national cultural and educational societies, holding patriotic events and alternative holidays.
