Summary/Abstract: The purpose of these considerations is to confront the findings proposed by Cz. Madajczyk and W. Bonusiak concerning the stratification of social attitudes in the conditions of war and occupation, with the realities of the conflict of 2014–2018. The aim of the research is to determine whether the concept of social behavior under the conditions of World War II developed by both professors can be used to interpret social attitudes in the contemporary armed conflict of a hybrid nature. The conducted considerations allowed for the conclusion that it is not possible to directly use above mentioned concepts to describe the situation in the analyzed conflict. However, they can serve as the basis for in-depth comparisons. In the conditions of an undeclared hybrid war, it is impossible to determine what was the formal legal, actual status between the „rebel republics of the DPR and LPR” and Kiev and Moscow. No wonder then that the assessment of social attitudes is all the more complicated and ambiguous.
