THE FEDERALIST PROJECTS TYPOLOGY IN CENTRAL EUROPE AT THE END OF THE WWI
Abstract
This paper proposes a debate about the federalist phenomenon and the federalist political projects in Central Europe at the end of WW I and the interwar period. The collapse of the Empires in Central and Eastern Europe created the conditions for a new world order, especially starting from the Wilsonian self-government theories. In these regions, where the imperialist trend collapsed, while the national trend developed, the federalist ideas were regarded by some leaders as real solutions. Therefore, at the end of WW I few types of federalism were promoted in Central Europe in the context that some important problems appeared: the new Polish State will be federalist or nationalist?; Czechoslovakia will be a federation or a centralist state? And examples can continue in this sense with Yugoslavia. Last but not least, the Romanian case is a particular one , in that the debates concerning the Transylvanians' autonomy did exist, but they were secondary and they never had the same importance in the political life as they did in Romanian`s neighbouring countries aforementioned.
