To End All Wars: World War I and the League of Nations Debate addresses the causes and effects of World War I both domestically and abroad, the Paris Peace Conference at which the Treaty of Versailles was written and signed, and the debate in the U.S. Senate about whether to join the League of Nations and ratify the treaty.

Wilson's vision for a new world order following World War I was far-reaching and radical at the time. While few of his ideals were carried out by theParis Peace Conference of 1919, the concepts he promoted left a legacy over the course of the twentieth century and changed the nature of international relations. While his League of Nations did not prevent World War II, the concepts of self-determination, open diplomacy, and freedom of trade outlined in the Fourteen Points Peace Plan are now common principles for many nations around the world.
