Abstract
The mandate system of the League of Nations was created as a compromise between the colonial interests of the victorious powers and the new ‘internationalist’ principles in international relations. It therefore had the same “inherent flaws” as the new organization as a whole. Despite a number of undoubtedly progressive provisions enshrined in Article 22 of the League's constitution, its implementation faced problems due to a lack of clear powers and mechanisms to curb abuses. As a result, its relevant bodies had to rely primarily on the “internationalization” of controversial issues, publicity and moral pressure from the international community to curb the arbitrariness of the mandatorial powers.
