Polish history of the 20th century, in particular the history of Polish Underground State during World War II. Moreover, his areas of interest include Polish-Ukrainian relations, the history of Polish Eastern Borderlands (especially in 19th-20th century), history of national minorities, with a particular focus on Polish-Ukrainian relations. His numerous publications include works on the history of ZWZ-AK (Union of Armed Struggle -Home Army), Polish-Ukrainian relations, the history of Lviv, many biographical articles, including the cooperation with “Polish Biographical Dictionary” (Polski Słownik Biograficzny) and participation in other similar publications. His area of research interests also includes the history of the Literary Institute in Paris (Instytut Literacki) publishing house and the journals Kultura (Culture) and Zeszyty Historyczne (Historical Notebooks) and books published there, which is, to some extent, the result of his long cooperation - the length of which cannot be matched by anyone at the Jagiellonian University - with Jerzy Giedroyć and the Notebooks; their editor dubbed him their “regular contributor”.
