Abstract

This monograph is part of a wider endeavor to re-examine the interwar years and networks of internationalism. It engages with two current debates, namely that of the effectiveness of the League of Nations and of the legacies of Weimar. By combining the two, the book succeeds in opening new directions in understanding internationalist colonialism during the interwar years.
