and societies more effective protection from undeserved abuse.
Of course, the operational measures would be much more
complex and more dependent upon a better understanding of
causation than could ever possibly be the case in a punitive
system. A trend toward transformations in this direction is evi-
dent in the legislation of civilized nations. The social system
proposed herein would have to break through traditions in this
area in a more effective way.
No government whose system is based on an understanding
of the laws of nature, whether concerning physical and biologi-
cal phenomena or the nature of man, can lay a claim to sover-
eignty in the meaning we have inherited from the nineteenth
century and subsequent nationalistic or totalitarian systems. We
share the same air and water throughout our planet. Common
cultural values and basic moral criteria are becoming wide
spread. The world is interlinked in transportation, communica-
tion, and trade and has become Our Planet. Under such condi-
tions, interdependence and cooperation with other nations and
supranational institutions, as well as moral responsibility for
overall fate, become a law of nature. The national organism
310
A VISION OF THE FUTURE
becomes autonomous but not independent. This must be regu-
lated by means of the appropriate treaties and incorporated into
national constitutions.
A system thus envisaged would be superior to all its prede-
cessors, being based upon an understanding of the laws of na-
ture operating within individuals and societies, with objective
knowledge progressively superceding opinions based upon
natural responses to phenomena. We should call it a
“LOGOCRACY”.
Due to their properties and conformity to the laws of nature
and evolution, logocratic systems could guarantee social and
international order on a long-term basis. In keeping with their
nature, they would then become transformed into more perfect
forms, a vague and faraway vision of which may beckon to us
in the present.
The author has survived many dangerous situations and be-
come disappointed with many people and institutions. How-
ever, the Great Providence has never disappointed him under
the most difficult circumstances. This condition suffices to
permit him to promise that elaborating a more detailed draft for
such a necessary better system will also be possible.

About the Author
Andrew M. !obaczewski was born in 1921 and grew up on
a rural estate in the beautiful piedmountain vicinity of Poland.
Under the Nazi occupation he worked on the farm, was an
apiarist, and then a soldier of the Home Army, an underground
Polish resistance organisation. After the Soviet invasion of
Poland, the family estate was confiscated and the owners
driven out from their old house.
Working hard for living, he studied psychology at Yagiello-
nian University in Cracow. The conditons under “Communist”
rule turned his attention to the matters of psychopathology,
especially to the role of psychopathic persons in such a gov-
ernmental system. He was not the first such researcher who
followed a similar path. The work was begun by a secret un-
derstanding of scientists of the older generation, which was
destroyed shortly after by the Red security authorities.
!obaczewski then later became the one who succeeded in ac-
complishing the work and putting it down on paper.
Working in a mental hospital, than a general hospital, and in
open mental health service, the author improved his skills in
clinical diagnosis and psychotherapy. Finally, when suspected
by the political authorities of knowing too much in the matter
of the pathological nature of the system, he was forced to emi-
grate in 1977. In the USA he became engulfed by the activity
of the long paws of the Red diversion. Instead of his very hard
times, the work presented now was written in New York in
1984. All attempts to publish this book at this time failed.
With broken health, he returned in 1990 to Poland and went
under the care of doctors, his old friends. His condition im-
proved gradually, and he became able to work and to publish
another of his works in matters of psychotherapy and socio-
psychology. He is still living in his homeland.
