Selected works of Pawel Wlodkowic.

In the linguistic and substantive manner proper for that period, the great polish scholar and statesman considers questions fundamental and universal for political and religious communities, which boil down to the following issues: Where is the boundary between the just and unjust use of force? What is the significance of the national right to freedom, existence and self-determination for the international peace? Today, we can consider Paweł Włodkowic’s thought from the perspective that allows us to appreciate that this way of thinking eventually created conditions for the emergence of the modern concept of human rights and religious tolerance.
