History and politics - contrary worlds? In passing Juliusz Mieroszewski’s political thought The article descried Juliusz Mieroszewski 's reflections about relations between history and politics, research the past events, understand the present situation and predictthe future, especially in international relations. The most influential political commentator of polish magazine ‘Culture’ (edited by Jerzy Giedroyc 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 future. 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 future 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.
