This paper critically examines Ludwig von Mises’ plan for political centralization of Eastern Europe. We argue that while Mises is known for suggesting many practical short-term proposals to influence economic policy of the day in the name of classical liberal order, forming a heavily centralized state in Eastern Europe would not bring about the much desired goal of ending clashes between the nations of this region.
