Focusing on the era from 1878 to 1938, this study examines how Great Powers implemented a system of external supervision to address issues like Irredentism and persecution in Eastern Europe. It highlights the complexities of early international human rights diplomacy amid rising nationalism, imperialism, and the tensions leading to World War II.
