Sprawy Narodowsciowe (National Minority Affairs) was a Polish periodical, that hosted a collection of Polish academic research and writings on the issues of national minorities in interwar Poland. Attention was given to all the national minorities in Poland with the emphasis on political affairs, social developments, cultural life, and inter-ethnic relations, though most attention is given to the more sizable in population and politically-influential, namely the Ukrainians, Germans, and Jews. The social and political developments of the national minorities--notably Belarusans, Lithuanians, Czechs, and Russians--are also reflected in this periodical publication.

This publication is a rare and valuable historical source for the inter-ethnic relations in interwar Poland. It provides academically valuable materials on the questions of relations between state and national minorities; relations between the national minorities in Poland; and nationalism and the theory of the state.
