The Changing Role Of International Organisations: The League And The UN, 1919-c2011

Muhtasari

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.

Malengo

  1. The creation and successes of the League, 1919-29: Woodrow Wilson, the Covenant, membership, Assembly, Council, Secretariat, successes including the Aaland Islands, Upper Silesia, the Greek-Bulgarian War
  2. The League challenged, 1930-39: the roles of the Great Powers, failures in Manchuria and Abyssinia, the continuing work of specialised agencies
  3. Setting up the United Nations Organisation and its work to 1964: the UN Charter, structural problems, General Assembly, Security Council, peacekeeping forces, UN agencies including ILO, WHO, FAO, UNESCO and UNICEF, the UN role in Palestine, Korea and the Congo
  4. The UN challenged, 1967-89: the Middle East including Resolutions 242 and 338, Lebanon, Namibia, the problem of the Permanent 5, the continuing work of specialised agencies
  5. The UN at bay, 1990-2011: identity wars including Somalia, Bosnia, the Balkans, Mozambique and Sudan, the Gulf Wars, obstacles to success

Maelezo ya Somo

Every difficulty in this topic comes back to a single structural tension. An international organisation has no army, no police force and no tax revenue of its own; it acts only through the states that belong to it. But the states most capable of enforcing a decision are also the ones most likely to have their own interests engaged in the dispute. Both the League and the UN were built around that problem, and they solved it in opposite ways: the League required near-unanimity and so achieved paralysis by consensus, while the UN gave the strongest states a formal veto and so achieved paralysis by design. Neither escaped the tension, and understanding it is worth more than memorising either constitution.
