The research subject of the following considerations is an attempt at an evaluation of the originality of his works. Results: W. Hagemejer published valuable works on the elasticity of demand, the condition of the Polish economy, the structure and development trends of consumption of urban and rural households in connection with market equilibrium, inflation undermining the purchasing power of money and people’s savings, the profitability of agricultural production, economic history, and many other issues. Most of his publications are of a mathematized character and contain a wealth of statistical material. He was a supporter of quantitative methods in economics.
