title = {The OSCE in Crisis: Five Lessons from the League of Nations},
year = {2023},
note = {Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, questions
about the survival of the OSCE have taken an acute form. However, the
war in Ukraine is not the only crisis facing the OSCE. The
Organization has long been challenged by institutional deadlock,
boycotts, budget cuts, increasing great power conflict, and growing
contestation from nationalist and populist leaders. The question is
therefore: How can the OSCE respond to such challenges to increase its
resilience? In this paper I analyze various historical crises faced by
the League of Nations and consider the extent to which institutional
“coping strategies” during this era offer lessons for the present.
Although the League was ultimately dissolved, many of its individual
agencies live on in the United Nations. The paper provides
recommendations for how to apply lessons from the League with a view
to strengthening the OSCE’s resilience.},
