Description
Summary:Associated mainly with Mathematics, Philosophy and technical inventions, J. M. Hoene-Wroński proved to be - one of the first among Poles – an author of the concept of a European federation. Due to a dispersion of these considerations amongst several publications, this concept has not been widely discussed. In his view, unification of the peoples of Europe would guarantee internal and external peace, freedom to individual nations and a halt to the march of revolution on the Continent. Political power in the federation was to be vested in a congregation representing all nations, modelled on the United States Congress. However, economic issues were to solved by individual member state on their own.
