Abstract: The article attempts to analyze the scientific achievements of modern Romanian and Polish historians on the peasant question and agrarian transformations that took place during the Ukrainian Revolution (1917–1921).

This was done on the example of some works of Romanian and Polish scientists who dealt with this topic. The key thesis that the authors tried to prove is that the presence of scientific works in Polish and Romanian historical science that directly or indirectly relate to our topic, but a separate specialized scientific study still have not appeared. The article ends with the author’s thoughts on this situation.

Keywords: agrarianism, foreign historiography, peasant question, the Ukrainian revolution of 1917–1921, Ukrainian peasantry.
