Beginning as a delegate to the Hungarian Parliament, his political career reached its peak during the first Czechoslovakian Republic in which he held several functions, including that of the only prime minister not of Czech nationality. His political insights and actions by far exceeded the borders of his homeland and earned him renown as the leading representative of agrarian reform in Europe. A great part of his activities were devoted to promoting good relations and ties amongst the countries in Central Europe, encouraging them to take unified political action, as he saw in this the key to alleviating political tension and to achieving the much required geopolitical balance in Europe at that time. His ideas of a supported the main points of Hodža's vision of the future shape of Central EuropeMilan Hodža velja za nedvomno najpomembnejšega slovaškega politika v prvi polovici 20. stoletja. Bil je poslanec že v ogrskem parlamentu, svoj politični vrhunec pa je dosegel v 1. ČSR, ko je bil med ostalim tudi edini nečeški predsednik vlade. S svojim političnim razmišljanjem in delovanjem je presegel meje matične domovine ter veljal za vodilnega predstavnika evropske agrarne demokracije. Velik del svoje aktivnosti je namenjal ureditvi razmer v Srednji Evropi ter povezovanju in skupnemu nastopu njenih narodov, v čemer je videl ključ do umiritve napetosti in Evropi nujno potrebnega geopolitičnega ravnovesja. Njegove zamisli o srednjeevropski federaciji so naletele na somišljenike tudi v Sloveniji, saj je denimo Edvard Kocbek v temeljnih vprašanjih v celoti delil Hodževo vizijo bodočega srednjeevropskega ustrojaTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZgodovinsko društvo Celje
