Abstract

The main objective of the study is to analyze the materials of periodicals of Subcarpathian Rus' containing information and interpretations of the plebiscite planned by Hungary in Subcarpathian Rus' in October 1938. For the comprehensive analysis of the interstate relations of the countries of Central Europe in the prewar period, the use of the principle of multivariate analysis, system-analytical and synergetic approaches were valuable. The complex of various sources allowed to reveal the process of the previously unknown referendum in Subcarpathia, which did not take place, but was prepared as a planned special operation of the hybrid confrontation. The plebiscite was intended to be an attempt to revise the results of both the Versailles system and a means of pressure on world powers in the context of the Second Czechoslovak Crisis. Hungary was waiting for the right moment to fulfill its intentions, in particular when a coalition government was formed in Subcarpathian Ruthenia with Prime Minister A. Brodiy loyal to Hungary, and in time there was a question of a planned referendum that would change the historical fate of both Ukraine and Hungary. During the study, the plans and actions of the Hungarian authorities in implementing the territorial accession of Ukrainian lands were established. The analysis demonstrated the progress of hybrid policy, which was implemented not only by Hungarian politicians but also by Ukrainian officials attached to them.

Summary

Introduction

Метою дослідження є аналіз матеріалів періодичних видань Підкарпатської Русі, які містять інформацію та інтерпретації запланованого Угорщиною плебісциту в Підкарпатській Русі в жовтні 1938 р. Для здійснення власних намірів Угорщина вичікувала слушного моменту, зокрема коли у Підкарпатській Русі було сформовано коаліційний уряд з більш ніж лояльним до Угорщини прем’єром А. До початку жовтня 1938 року помітних зрушень у цьому напрямку не було, тому Угорщина очікувала рішучих дій Німеччини у Судецькому регіоні та планувала проведення у Підкарпатті плебісциту населення, результатом якого мала бути анексія території, на якій мешкало також багато українців.
