Summary/Abstract: Agenor Gołuchowski the younger was minister of foreign affairs in Austria-Hungary in 1895–1906. He was also the only Pole to occupy this position. At that time, the first conflicts had arisen between the European powers, ultimately leading to the outbreak of WWI. The goal of this article is to present and characterise Gołuchowski’s international policy administered in Europe in the late 19th century and the activities he instigated in the face of the subsequent unrest in the Balkans and the Moroccan crisis in order to secure peace in Europe. The main source for the article were selected Galician newspapers (“Czas”, “Gazeta Lwowska”, “Gazeta Narodowa”, “Nowa Reforma” and “Przegląd Polski”) which covered Gołuchowski’s annual exposés as well as commented (more or less positively) on his policy.
