1928 Kellogg-Briand
Pact
By: Nur Fathin and Yin Earn 
Introduction

The Kellogg-Briand Pact was an agreement to outlaw war signed on August
27, 1928.

The pact was one of many international efforts to prevent another World
War.

It had little effect in stopping the rising militarism of the 1930s or preventing
World War II.
Effect and legacy

The 1928 Kellogg–Briand Pact was concluded outside the League of Nations,
and remains in effect.

General Act for the Pacific Settlement of International Disputes, was
concluded in Geneva, which committed its signatory parties to establish
conciliation commissions in any case of dispute.

As a practical matter, the Kellogg–Briand Pact did not live up to its aim of
ending war.
U.S. Peace Advocates

In the wake of World War I, U.S. officials and private citizens made significant
efforts to make sure that the people won’t involved into any war.

Some focused on disarmament, and some focused on cooperation with the
League of Nations.
