The article descried Juliusz Mieroszewski 's reflections about relations between history and politics, research the past events, understand the present situation and predictthe futurę, especially in international relations. The most influential political commentator of polish magazine ‘Culture’ (edited by Jerzy Giedroyć in Paris) claimed that history is the politics which had been stopped but politics can’tbe the 'unmoveable’ and unchangeable history. The Polish had been studying a history, but polish po­litical science didn’t have the opportunity to born. If we change a half of time which we focus on the past into studying the present, polish political though will be recover and have a great futurę. However ‘Londonman’ (a pen name of Mieroszewski, who lived and wrote in London after the Second World War) was aware that without historical knowledge the political science have a little chance to understand the present and shape the futurę on purpose. According to writer the political science and inter­national relations are a very young sons of old father - the history. They must using their father’s experience. However they won’t find in the past a simple and direct So­lutions of present dilemmas. History offer only a wide perspective and knowledge about variety of social and political live. Mieroszewski had known thatlive and poli­tics are not logical but our tasks is to make it more logical. We don’t have better options.

The aim of the article author was to show the political thought of Juliusz Mieroszewski not only in the perspective of its long cooperation with the Paris “Culture”, but also to prove the topicality of his concepts in contemporary politics. In the first part of the article the author focuses on the projects of Juliusz Machulski, connected to the direct neighbours of Poland – Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine, at that time being a part of the Soviet Union. These were developed the furthest by the concept of ULB. The second part covers Mieroszewski’s ideas on settling the relations with Russia, with regard to their timely evolution, taking place on the pages of the Paris “Culture”. The third part of the article presents the author’s attempts to prove the existence of traces of Mieroszewski’s political thoughts in the contemporary Polish Eastern politics, both in the declarative and political plane.

Rosyjska interwencja w Donbasie i zabór Krymu spowodowały zasadniczą zmianę polityki Unii Europejskiej wobec jej wschodnich sąsiadów, i w tym samej Rosji. Głównym celem niniejszego artykułu jest wykazanie aktualności “Doktryny Giedroycia” w kontekście dyskusji nad nową strategią Unii Europejskiej (UE) wobec Federacji Rosyjskiej (FR). Zdaniem autorów, działania na rzecz wzrostu poziomu zamożności, stabilności i bezpieczeństwa w Europie Wschodniej tylko wtedy będą miały charakter trwały, kiedy w samej Rosji nastąpią przemiany demokratyczne. Autokratyczna i neo-imperialna Rosja będzie przeciwdziałać wszelkim pro-zachodnim zmianom w regionie. W tym kontekście, udana transformacja FR w kraj stabilny, zamożny i demokratyczny powinna być postrzegana jako długoterminowy cel Unii Europejskiej służący bezpieczeństwu kontynentu. Wskazane jest, aby ta wizja przyświecała wszystkim politycznym aktywnościom UE na obszarze wschodniego sąsiedztwa. Oznacza to, że pomoc gospodarcza dla Ukrainy i rozwój współpracy z tym państwem nie powinny być celem samym w sobie. Okcydentalizację Ukrainy należy bowiem postrzegać jako jedynie początek politycznej transformacji całego regionu.

Russian intervention in Donbas and annexation of Crimea have triggered a fundamental revision of the EU policy towards Easter neighbourhood and Russia. The main goal of this paper is to develop discussion about the EU strategy towards Russia by presenting political concept named “The Giedroyc doctrine”, created by Polish intellectuals on exile, when Poland was under Soviet domination. Although created a few decades ago, some elements of this doctrine are still surprisingly relevant today and may contribute to contemporary European debate. In particular we argue that strengthening the prosperity, stability and security in Eastern Europe is possible only when Russia transforms itself into a prosperous and democratic state. Autocratic and neo-imperial Russia undermines any major pro-Western political changes in the region. Therefore, successful transformation of Russia into stable, prosperous and democratic state should be included into the long term vision of European politicians who intend to keep Europe secure. All political activities in the Eastern neighbourhood should be subordinated to this. It means that economic support for Ukraine and strengthening cooperation with this country should not be a goal itself. Westernization of Ukraine ought to be perceived only as a beginning of political transformation of the whole region.
