Wiktor Poliszczuk
Wiktor Poliszczuk (10 October 1925 in Dubno near Rivne — 17 November 2008 in Toronto) was a Polish-Ukrainian-Canadian politologist specialising in the history of political thought (a Canadian citizen of Polish-Ukrainian descent), who wrote about the Polish-Ukrainian relations during World War II and issues relating to the emergence of Ukrainian nationalism in the 20th century resulting in a campaign of ethnic cleansing. Poliszczuk's work has been criticized by several Polish, Canadian, American, and Ukrainian historians, but also acknowledged for his Polish-Ukrainian reconciliation effort.
