"The League of Nations and Its Problems: Three Lectures" by L. Oppenheim is a look into the beginnings of the League of Nations, exploring the reasons it was created and the difficulties it encountered. These lectures, delivered in the early 1900s, argue for the critical need for a global organization to foster peace after World War I. The author explains why he chose to speak on this topic, and highlights its important historical ties, pointing out that the idea of such a league isn't entirely new but built on earlier international laws and diplomatic efforts. He also makes the point that the League's success hinges on teamwork and the overcoming of specific powerful nations to secure enduring global peace.
