Answer to Question #115221 in History for amari

Question

Explain two different perspectives on the League of Nations.

Answer 1

The US President Woodrow Wilson established the League of Nation after the First World War as an international peacekeeping organization. However, it was an essential experience in a long-term perspective whose failures were overstated by scholars interested in highlighting the policy power inevitability in the relation between nations than comprehending its originality. After the League failed to prevent the Second World War, historians viewed it as the weak, powerless, and ineffective organization. Therefore, the failure of the League in its responsibilities caused the countries to disrespect it and refuse to join.
