The British Mandate for Palestine, shortly Mandate for Palestine, or the Palestine Mandate was a League of Nations mandate for the territory that had formerly constituted the Ottoman Empire sanjaks of Nablus, Acre, the Southern part of the Vilayet of Syria, the Southern portion of the Beirut Vilayet, and the Mutasarrifate of Jerusalem, prior to the Armistice of Mudros. The draft of the Mandate for Palestine was formally confirmed by the Council of the League of Nations on 24 July 1922, supplemented via the 16 September 1922 Trans-Jordan memorandum〔〔Marjorie M. Whiteman, ''Digest of International Law'', vol. 1, US State Department (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, 1963) pp 650–652〕 and then came into effect on 29 September 1923〔(Palestine Royal Commission Report Presented by the Secretary of State for the Colonies to Parliament by Command of His Majesty, July 1937, Cmd. 5479 ). His Majesty’s Stationery Office., London, 1937. 404 pages + maps. (Peel Report, 45 MB)〕 following the ratification of the Treaty of Lausanne.〔"The final draft was presented to the British Parliament in August 1921, the Palestine Mandate was approved by the League of Nations in July 1922, and finally on 28 September 1923 it was ratified under the Treaty of Lausanne."

The Palestine Mandate legalized the temporary rule of Palestine by Great Britain. The document was based on the principles contained in Article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations and the San Remo Resolution of 25 April 1920, by the principal Allied and associated powers after the First World War. The objective of the League of Nations Mandate system was to administer parts of the defunct Ottoman Empire, which had been in control of the Middle East since the 16th century, "until such time as they are able to stand alone."〔(Article 22, The Covenant of the League of Nations ) and "Mandate for Palestine," Encyclopedia Judaica, Vol. 11, p. 862, Keter Publishing House, Jerusalem, 1972〕 The approximate northern border with the French Mandate was agreed upon in the Paulet–Newcombe Agreement of 23 December 1920.〔(''Franco-British Convention on Certain Points Connected with the Mandates for Syria and the Lebanon, Palestine and Mesopotamia'' ), 23 December 1920.

On ()〕 Transjordan had been a no man's land following the July 1920 Battle of Maysalun.〔 During this period, the British chose to avoid any definite connection with Palestine〔 until a March 1921 conference at which it was agreed that Abdullah bin Hussein would administer the territory under the auspices of the Palestine Mandate. The Trans-Jordan Memorandum annulled the articles regarding the Jewish National Home in the territory east of the Jordan. It also established a separate "Administration of Trans-Jordan" for the application of the Mandate, under the general supervision of Great Britain. On 18 April 1946, Transjordan was formally separated from the Palestine Mandate,〔(''Mandates, dependencies and trusteeship'' ), p. 267. Duncan Hall, 1948. "The Assembly...welcomes the termination of the mandated status of Syria, the Lebanon, and Transjordan, which have, since the last session of the Assembly, become independent members of the world community."〕 with Abdullah remaining the king. ==Background== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「British Mandate for Palestine (legal instrument)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
