Abstract
The same as today the legal science is far from being able to define European Union as an entity sui generis, between the two wars it was difficult to classify the League of Nations. Czech internationalist Antonín Hobza warned that the aim to define League of Nations as a "Union of states" did not have a reasonable sense because the League of Nations was an unprecedented integration of states.
In agreement with other theoreticians of international law Antonín Hobza thought that an image of League of Nations could have been misinterpreted if we wanted to apply traditional concepts of organization of states because of a new era of international law. We are witnessing the same arguments today concerning the European Union.
The difference is that European law is treated not only as international but as a supranational law
