We would like to direct the problems of the conference to a wide group of scientists, but also journalists as well as other experts and representatives of the institutions dealing with the present, i.e. after 1989, face of the Polish-Ukrainian neighbourhood as seen through the prism of the social issues. Our ambition is to gather these people at the same time and site so that they could present their papers and exchange opinions. We plan that the meeting will be followed by a volume of reviewed articles. The organisers suggest that the papers presented relate to the following questions:
The organisers suggest that the papers presented relate to the questions that for the last 25 years have shaped a social face of the Polish-Ukrainian neighbourhood. These may include:- social problems in the Polish-Ukrainian transborderland;

- Poland’s and Poles’ image in Ukraine as well as Ukraine’s and Ukrainians’ image in Poland;
- the Polish-Ukrainian neighbourhood and the idea of Central Europe;
- the Polish plots in the Ukrainian (and the Ukrainian plots in the Polish) literature, art and film;
