The purpose of the work is to analyze scientific works and research of Ukrainian and foreign historiography of the Roman Catholic Church, which carried out its activities on the Right-Bank Ukraine as part of the Russian Empire, the Ukrainian People's Republic, the Hetmanate of Skoropadsky, the Ukrainian Socialist Soviet Republic in the period from 1914 to 1921. Research methodology. The research methodology is based on a systematic approach to the study of socio-political, socio-economic phenomena in their development and relationship, based on the principles of science, objectivity and historicism. In the course of writing the work were used general and special historical methods: comparative-historical and critical; chronological; statistical and analytical methods. Scientific novelty. It consists, first of all, in a comprehensive analysis of the historiography of the activity of the Catholic Church, which has not yet received comprehensive and holistic coverage in historical science and has not been the subject of a separate regional study. Conclusions. Despite the ever-increasing activity of scientific research on this topic, insufficient analysis of the chosen topic, the number of "white spots" in historiography still remains significant, especially the fate of the Polish community of Right Bank Ukraine, which indicates significant potential for new historical research and research in the future.
