Abstract: This article focuses on interethnic relationship in a diaspora situation within a multicultural society. Using the example of the relationship between Polish and Ukrainian immigrants in the United States author try to provide an answer to the question whether and to what extent are the interethnic relations transferred into a diaspora situation? In the analysis particular attention is focused on the macro and microsocial determinants of mutual relationships as well as on the various elements of interethnic relations, including: spheres of cooperation, conflict areas, daily interactions, ethnic distance, mutual perceptions and spatial relations.The major descriptive and the basic definition term is „displaced borderland”. This concept is based on the assumption that the contacts and relations between these groups are very often determined by the European heritage.
