The article generalizes the findings about the history of the WUPR obtained by Ukrainian historiographers over the last decade of the 21st century, to outline major trends and methodological frameworks focusing on the ones which have hitherto received little attention for both subjective and objective reasons. It is stated that in Ukrainian historiography romantic positivism is the predominant methodological perspective on the history of the WUPR. Extensive research in this direction conducted mainly by experts in the so-called WUPR studies has yielded solid academic works such as An Encyclopedia of the WUPR in three volumes (the fourth volume is being prepared). It is stressed that the number and geographic diversity of researchers interested in exploring the history of the WUPR are expanding. In addition, there is an emphasis on qualitative changes in WUPR studies, which the author illustrates by analyzing the works of Ya. Hrytsak, O. Reient, О. Pavlyshyn, І. Monolatii written in the spirit of intellectual psychohistory, the history of everyday life. Keywords: WUPR, Ukrainian historiography, Ukrainian Revolution of 1914–1923, historiography of the WUPR, historical national narrative. 1. INTRODUCTION Jubilees normally serve as occasions to summarize what has been explored, discussed, published, as well as as indicators of what remains to discover, analyze, and rethink. The centennial of the West Ukrainian People’s Republic (WUPR) became an event of this magnitude: it did not escape the attention of either academic or public circles. Overall, the event had a high profile in the country (however, we do not intend to assess how powerful the information campaign was). Neither is this paper intended to discuss the significance of the WUPR, although it would be expected at the time of a jubilee. Though all laws of classical historiography would necessitate such an approach, we will take the liberty to deviate from them since there exist many books, articles, reports, including multi-volume folios, on this topic. In fact, it is taken as axiomatic that the emergence of the WUPR was a logical result of the national liberation movement of the western branch of the Ukrainian people on their lands. The state-building experience of the political elite of the West Ukrainian state is regarded not only as worthy of admiration but also as exemplary for the current legislative, executive, and judiciary branches of the government. The Unification Act (Akt Zluky) signed by the WUPR and 8 Volodymyr Velykochyy the Ukrainian People’s Republic (UPR) is considered to have had a tremendous impact on the further development of the Ukrainian nation. It is considered to be the pinnacle of sobornist not so much in the territorial, but rather in the spiritual, mental, axiological sense. Highly regarded are the efforts of the western Ukrainian elite to establish military forces (the Galician Army), local authorities, self- government, the judicial system, the gendarmerie, and so on. Such interpretations of the national liberation movement, the state-building processes on western Ukrainian lands came into modern historiography from the works of those who experienced or witnessed the events: D. Doroshenko, К. Levytskyi, І. Sokhotskyi, М. Stakhiv,
