This study aims to reconstruct the process by which historians of the Ukrainian diaspora investigated Mykhailo Hrushevsky's activity as an organiser of scholarly life.The research methodology involves the use of the principles of historicism and objectivity, as well as general scientific and special-historical methods of historiographical research.The scholarly novelty of the article lies in its comprehensive examination of the problem of historiographical interpretations of Mykhailo Hrushevsky's academic and organisational activity by Ukrainian intellectuals abroad during the 1960s-1980s.Conclusions.A distinctive feature of the historiographical discourse of diaspora Ukrainian studies -focused on a broad range of issues concerning Mykhailo Hrushevsky's scholarly and organisational activity -was its progressive specialisation.This tendency manifested itself in the rapid expansion of the range of topics brought into scholarly circulation regarding the author of the History of Ukraine-Rus' as a scientific manager, made possible by new source discoveries and the application of Western methodological approaches.In this way, innovative historiographical studies emerged, some of which to this day have not only retained their scholarly significance but also have not been reinterpreted within contemporary social sciences and the humanities (for example, research on the period of Hrushevsky's presidency of the Shevchenko Scientific Society).At the same time, the inability -due to objective circumstances -to conduct in-depth work in archives on the mainland resulted in the thematic and problem-oriented fragmentation of diaspora Hrushevsky studies.Thus, during the 1960s-1980s, no comprehensive study appeared addressing the issues of Hrushevsky's organisation of scholarly work within the framework of the Ukrainian Scientific Society or the Ukrainian Sociological Institute.In turn, this made it impossible to offer a panoramic analysis of the eminent scholar's scholarly-organisational legacy.Nevertheless, it was precisely the historiographical work of diaspora intellectuals that provided the impetus for the rapid development of modern, Ukraine-based Hrushevsky studies.
