Summary/Abstract: The authoir asesses Lev Tolstoy's War and Peace as a speculative - constructive "product". He underlines the fact that in the frame of political utopia in Tolstoy's work we deal with heroic, ascapistic utopia as well as utopia of time, place and eternal order. These issues are reconsidered in the contetxt of Felix Konechny's establishhments related among other things, to Ruranian civiloization, in which the utterer of public law is only one person - the ruler.
