The Military Doctrine of Ukrainian Nationalists (Ukrainian: Воєнна доктрина українських націоналістів, romanizedVoienna doktryna ukrainskykh natsionalistiv) is a book by the military theorist of the OUN, commander of the armed forces of Carpatho-Ukraine, colonel Mykhailo F. Kolodzinskyi.

Content

[edit]

The book consists of three parts:

The content of the book is replete with calls for anti-Jewish pogroms[1] and vandalism.[2]

Kolodzinskyi considered the need to encourage the broad masses in the struggle for statehood to be very important; create a single centralized nationalist government by eliminating all competitive governments and politicians; transform partisans detachments into a regular army; eliminate autocratic atamans. The doctrine foresaw the cleansing of Western Ukrainian lands from Poles and partly from other minorities that were hostile to Ukrainian independence, in particular Jews.
