Source Analysis: The League of Nations
Source A: The League's Vision
"The League of Nations was established to promote peace and prevent future wars through international cooperation and collective security. Its founders believed that nations working together could resolve disputes peacefully and avoid the destructive conflicts of the past. The League aimed to uphold peace by encouraging diplomacy, disarmament, and mutual understanding among countries. Although it lacked its own armed forces, the League relied on member nations to enforce its decisions and sanctions to maintain stability. Its success depended on the willingness of nations to cooperate and prioritize collective interests over individual gains. The League was seen as a pioneering effort to create a new international order based on dialogue and diplomacy, rather than warfare. However, critics argued that its effectiveness was limited by the absence of powerful enforcement mechanisms and the reluctance of some major countries to fully commit to its goals."* Provenance: Official League of Nations document, 1920, summary of the League's aims and principles.
