Family ties and influence have been argued as very influential in creating a nationally
conscious western Ukrainian generation who then joined the UPA during the Second World
War. However, these kinship ties have not been analyzed. This article looks at the way in which
familial relationships created the opportunity for western Ukrainians to join the UPA and their
experiences with family members during their time in the insurgency. It also examines the danger
that many family members were placed in because of a family member’s decision to join the fight
against the Germans and Soviets.[/restab]
