The Changing Role Of International Organisations: The League And The UN, 1919-c2011
Visão Geral
Twice in the twentieth century the world's governments tried to build an organisation that would make large-scale war unnecessary, and twice they built something less powerful than they had promised. The League of Nations settled real disputes in the 1920s and then watched two of its own members invade other countries in the 1930s. The United Nations was designed specifically to correct the League's faults, and spent its first forty-five years paralysed by a veto that the design deliberately included.
This is a topic where the judgement matters more than the narrative, because assessments of both organisations vary sharply among historians. Some measure them against the wars they failed to prevent; others against what would have existed in their absence. Your task is to hold both standards in view and say which you are using.
