Abstract

This article deals with some types of foreign-political mood of Podilla population during the deculakization and total collectivization at the end of 1920s – early of 1930s. Modern researches have shown that the mood and the behaviour of the population, peasants in the particular, have become the markers of the results of realization of the social-economic policy in the Soviet Ukraine at the end of 1920s – early of 1930s. Still, the usage of the manifestation of different types of mood and behaviour with the illustrative purpose of social-economic process only, conditioned to the lack of their classification. The attempts of the classification of the mood on the source of its rise/provoking (mainly) political, social, economic, cultural-educational, the decisions of the upper party-governmental guidance of the USSR or by the main lines of the peasants’ everyday life became unsuccessful. Well, every initiative of the Bolshevik government deals practically with all sides of the peasants’ everyday life and agricultural manufacture. The author proposed his own typology of the mood of the Podilla region’s peasants during the investigating period by the means of its forms and themes. In particular, the evaluation of the foreignpolitical situation on the background of the extreme events of the total collectivization appeared to be the most widespread. The sources of the information were speeches of the local propagandists, newspapers and gossips. For their own analyses of the current events peasants used the experiment of their family members or their country-men, taken part in the military deeds. The characteristic types of the foreign-political moods became «war awaiting», «polishes coming», «creation of anti- Bolshevik coalition» and intervention. On the background of the possible military conflict among religious population, which were in the majority, the thesis of the fall of’ «the power of the antichrist» (soviet power) was widely spread. Religious peasants strongly believed in the fall of the soviet power.
