In 1913 he was a chief editor of the Ukrainian student chronicles in Saint Petersburg. Neronovych at first was a member of the Ukrainian Social Democratic Labour Party (USDRP), later heading the left faction of the party which program was the creation of the independent Soviet Ukraine. In 1917-1918 he was member of the Central Rada and Mala Rada. On November 2, 1917 he was a speaker at the All-Ukrainian Military Congress that took place in Kiev from November 2 through November 8, 1917.
