League of Nations Union : ウィキペディア英語版 | League of Nations Union The League of Nations Union (LNU) was an organization formed in October 1918 in the United Kingdom to promote international justice, collective security and a permanent peace between nations based upon the ideals of the League of Nations. The League of Nations was established by the Great Powers as part of the Paris Peace Treaties, the international settlement that followed the First World War. The creation of a general association of nations was the final one of President Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points. The LNU became the largest and most influential organisation in the British peace movement.〔R. M. Douglas, ''The Labour Party, Nationalism and Internationalism, 1939-1951: A New World Order;'' Routledge, 2004, p. 27.〕〔(League of Nations Union Collected Records, 1915-1945, Swarthmore College Peace Collection. )〕 By the mid-1920s, it had over a quarter of a million registered subscribers 〔John T. Callaghan, ''The Labour Party and Foreign Policy: A History''; Routledge, 2007, p. 69.〕 and its membership eventually peaked at around 407,775 in 1931. By the 1940s, after the disappointments of the international crises of the 1930s and the descent into World War II, membership fell to about 100,000.〔Joseph Preston Baratta, ''Politics of World Federation: From world federalism to global governance''; Greenwood Publishing Group, 2004, p. 74.〕 ==Formation== The LNU was formed on 13 October 1918〔 by the merger of the League of Free Nations Association and the League of Nations Society, two older organisations already working for the establishment of a new and transparent system of international relations, human rights (as then understood) and for world peace through disarmament and universal collective security rather than traditional approaches such as the balance of power or the creation of power blocs through secret treaties.〔("LNU - League of Nations Union" Collection, British Library of Political and Economic Science, LSE. )〕 Chapters of the LNU were set up in the Dominions and in allied nations, including in each of the capital cities of the states of the Commonwealth of Australia.
