Mateusz Morawiecki at Heidelberg University

Much I would agree with, some things I won't agree with.

I think in general that the centre of gravity in Europe is shifting eastwards, and that Poland is set to become the main attractor to this shifting gravity centre. That Berlin and Paris do not like this is the main reason why they act on Ukraine the way they do - and will not agree to Ukrainian EU or NATO mebership any time soon. A Polish-Ukrainian alliance with support from the baltic states, other Slavic states and maybe Finland, would be the end of the influence for the axis Paris-Berlin. This also explains why Poland has gone "all in" regarding Ukraine - no other European nation beside Ukraine would benefit as fundamentally from a Ukrainian victory, giving it its most powerful and influential ally beside the US. In total numbers, the US gives more support to Ukraine than anyone else, by far more. But if standardising national aid by economy size and population size, Poland outclasses the support of any other donator there is, including the US.


To clarify and deepen many of the issues that Morawiecki only hints at, I recommend these books, some of which are also available in French, Spanish and Polish. David Engels' work "Le décline/Auf dem Weg ins Imperium", was voted best non-fiction book of the year by several radio stations and editors in Germany in 2014 or 2015. This is remarkable because he massively criticizes what these editorial offices usually advocate. He was subsequently subjected to massive attacks by the EUcrats and fled with his family from Brussels to Poland to protect his family and being able to continue working freely and unmobbed at university. His assessments of the future of Europe are gloomy, but in my opinion realistic: I share them. Needless to say: he gets, like all thinkers of his orientation and callibre, defamed as a "right populist". He isnt, he is just conservative and realistic and anti-relativism and anti-EUcracy.

This ^ is a very private, personal book, written short after he arrived in Poland.
