Intellectual History and Elites cooperation. League of Nations’ Committees for Intellectual Cooperation and Romania (1921-1939)

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to examine the changing meaning of intellectual cooperation in the interwar period. The term “intellectual cooperation”, now used in a broad sense, came into existence as an idealistic expression for world peace after World War I. In addition, it came to be embodied in 1922 as an international organization, the International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation. For this reason, this committee along with the system of national committees that it was created during the interwar period have recently attracted attention as a pioneering international organization for cultural exchange in the field of international history. The National Committee for Intellectual Cooperation from Romania developed in this sense an extended activity in the matter of scientific and cultural exchange, creating means through which the Romanian elite collaborated in various field with intellectuals from all state members.
