There has been an increasing scholarly interest in the role of history
commissions and historians in the processes of truth-seeking, reconciliation,
and mitigation of conflicts between groups divided by the past. Since
the early 1990s, several official commissions and a working group of
historians have been created in Ukraine to mediate memory-based conflict
between supporters and opponents of the recognition at the national level
of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) and the Ukrainian
Insurgent Army (UPA). The article studies the efforts of the working group
of historians on the OUN-UPA activity drawing on the academic literature
on truth and historical reconciliation commissions.
