Organization and forms of international intellectual cooperation within the framework of the League of Nations (1922-1939)

Summary/Abstract: The International Commission on Intellectual Cooperation (ICIC ) was created as an advisory organ to the Council of the League of Nations in 1922. The main purpose of this new body of the League of Nations was the promotion and organization of general intellectual cooperation as a final means of working for international peace. ICIC initiated the world-wide system of “National Commissions” on Intellectual Cooperation, which eventually existed in forty-one countries (1937). These Commissions constituted the lowest formal link in the entire organizational system founded by the League of Nations with a view to promoting intellectual cooperation. The International Institute of Intellectual Cooperation, as the executive organ of ICIC, offered by French Government and inaugurated in Paris in 1926, promoted new forms of intellectual cooperation like International Museums Office, Permanent International Studies Conference, an action called Moral Disarmament, the cooperation between the most distinguished intellectuals (Entretiens) and others. In 1928 the Italian Government founded the International Institute of the Educational Cinema in Rome, which functioned in the framework of the League of Nations until December 1937. It was a center of the international information, promotion, distribution and exchange of educational films.
