Abstract

This chapter explores, through the writings of Friedrich Hayek, Luigi Einaudi, and Ludwig von Mises, the reasons that led classical liberals to converge on the idea of international federalism and the goals that such federation would accomplish, as well as the practical attributes of its functioning. The choice of these three classical liberal thinkers is not accidental. In spite of different career trajectories and political sensibilities, the three shared the lived experience of a European continent tormented by the demons of nationalism, witnessing the undoing of the extraordinary achievements of the “first age of globalization,” which was brought to an end in 1914.
