Ekonomiczne kontakty mieszkańców Rzeczypospolitej i Hetmańszczyznyw pierwszej połowie XVIII wieku

The paper analyses the relations between the citizens of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Hetmanate in the first half of the 18th century. People living in various Ukrainian territories which formerly belonged to the territory of the Commonwealth still maintained regular educational, cultural, economic and social contacts over the state and confessional borders. Living in two different states didn’t block family communication, especially in the near-border regions. The usual practice of money credits, which the article focuses on, indicates direct and sufficiently trustful business contacts between representatives of Polish-Lithuanian voivodeships and Cossack regiments.
