Abstract
The article discusses the growing interest among historians in studying the League of Nations and its archives in Geneva. The author highlights the significant amount of scholarship that has emerged from these archives, covering a wide range of topics such as sovereignty, trade, race, gender, colonialism, and more. The article also emphasizes the role of the United States in the League, despite not being a formal member, and how American individuals and organizations were deeply involved in shaping international governance during the interwar period. The author argues that the League served as a laboratory for the development of international governance approaches, which were later transplanted into the core institutions of the postwar liberal international order.
