ArgumentEugenics and race played significant roles in Ukrainian interwar nationalism, yet remain largely unstudied. The Ukrainian nationalists’ understanding of the racial makeup of their imagined community was contradictory as they struggled to reconcile their desire for racial “purity” with the realities of significant variations between the populations inhabiting the enormous territories which they sought to include in their intended state project. The “turn to the right” over the 1930s placed an increased onus on race, and eugenics came to occupy an increasingly prominent place in Ukrainian radical nationalism from around 1936. In 1941, the leading Ukrainian far-right organization, the OUN had developed a project for eugenic engineering, for their aborted state, declared in L’viv on June 30, 1941. Racial conceptualizations of the Ukrainian community figured prominently well into the Cold War era, gaining a new actuality and meaning in an émigré community dispersed across several countries.

论据优生学和种族在乌克兰两次世界大战之间的民族主义中发挥了重要作用，但在很大程度上仍未得到研究。乌克兰民族主义者对他们想象中的社区的种族构成的理解是矛盾的，因为他们努力使他们对种族“纯洁”的渴望与居住在他们试图纳入其预期国家项目的巨大领土上的人口之间的显着差异的现实相协调. 1930 年代的“向右转”给种族带来了更大的责任，优生学从 1936 年左右开始在乌克兰激进民族主义中占据越来越重要的地位。1941 年，乌克兰领先的极右组织 OUN 发展了一个1941 年 6 月 30 日在利沃夫宣布的优生工程项目，因其已流产的状态。
