HiStories - Continuities or Ruptures? The League of Nations and the United Nations

Check out our recorded HiStories episode that will provide an innovative view of the continuities and disruptions between the League of Nations and the United Nations. Several aspects from the evolution of the League historiography as well as an academic assessment of the continuities/discontinuities between the League and the UN will be highlighted and presented by a renowned historian.
