In the article, an attempt has been made to investigate the problem of the ethnic Ukrainians participation in the French Resistance during the Second World War on the basis of analysis of documents, scientific literature and sites of memory characteristics as important sources that allow us to understand the role and significance of Ukrainians in defeating Hitler’s Germany. The aim of the research is to reveal an importance of the sites of memory as sources for clarification the question of the ethnic Ukrainians participation in the French Resistance during the Second World War. Methodology. During the research, the following principles of historical research were used: historicism, objectivity and consistency. Special historical methods were used: historical and comparative, terminological, chronological, retrospective, and the method of actualization. The research is described in the problem systematic sequence. The research novelty. For the first time in the national historical science using concrete actual material, it has been proven that sites of memory are an important historical source and means of scientific research, which has a wide range of possibilities for revealing and elucidating motives and internal behavior logic of concrete participants of the French Resistance from Ukraine. It is substantiated that the study of the sites of memory in France and Ukraine not only helps to establish the historical truth about the combat community of Ukrainians with citizens of other countries who were not voluntarily on French territory in the struggle against Nazi invaders within the framework of the Resistance movement but may also act as an effective method of developing the prospects of mutual understanding between peoples and uniting efforts to preserve peace and security at the present stage. Conclusions. The investigated problem has a theoretical and practical significance, since success in defending the territorial integrity of Ukraine in the war with Russian intervention largely depends on the comprehension and consideration of historical lessons on the nature, features and extent of participation of Ukrainians in the French Resistance.References
