Abstract
The review is dedicated to the special issue of the journal «Zeitschrift fur Ostmitteleuropa-Forschung», on the pages of which were presented the results of the German research project «Polesia as a Landscape of Intervention: Space, Rule, Technology and Ecology at the European Periphery, 1915-2015». The central focus of this project was the study of Polesia as a special peripheral region that included large swampland areas. In particular, within its framework the researchers studied the landscape and environment transformation of Polesia, using the case of the Western Expedition for Drainage of Marshlands (18731902) in the Western Provinces of the Russian Empire and various measures taken by the government of the Second Republic of Poland in western Polesia during the interwar years (1921-1939).
