Abstract

The end of the First World War determined structural changes on the map of Europe, resulting from the disintegration of the Great Empires and the emergence of new state actors. A paradigm shift arrived, revolving around the liberal model, the Wilsonian vision summarized in the “14 points”, the principles, values and the democratic framework underpinning the Covenant of the League of Nations and the activity of the Geneva forum.

They were more acutely experienced by Romania and the states in Central and Eastern Europe, mainly driven to preserve the status quo, combat revisionism and build lasting alliances.
