In addition to the economic crisis and the peasant and socialist movement, the growing Ukrainian national movement was a prominent source of landowners’ problems. The fear of losing political and material advantage in Eastern Galicia determined the attitude of local Polish landowners towards Ukrainians. The article discusses both social and political circumstances that have influenced the crisis, as well as the condition the landowners have found themselves in and their attempts to overcome growing difficulties.}, doi = {10.4467/20844069PH.19.046.11662}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/prace-historyczne/article/kryzys-ziemianstwa-w-galicji-wschodniej-na-przelomie-xix-i-xx-wieku-do-1914-roku} }
