This book shows how the first institution of global governance was
conceived and operated. It provides a new assessment of its
architect, Eric Drummond, the first Secretary-General of the League
of Nations, appointed a century ago. The authors conclude that he
stands in the front rank of the 12 men who have occupied the post
of Secretary-General of the League or its successor, the UN. Part 1
describes his character and leadership. His influence in shaping
the International Civil Service, the 'beating heart' of the League,
is the subject of Part 2, which also shows how the young staff he
appointed responded with imagination and creativity to the
political, economic and social problems that followed World War I.
Part 3 shows the influence of these early origins on today's global
organizations and the large scale absorption of League policies,
programmes, practices and staff into the UN and its Specialized
Agencies.
