At great turning points in history, societies return to their founding principles. The “Spirit of Geneva” is one of them.
The “Spirit of Geneva” is also the title of a book published in 1929 by Robert de Traz, at a moment when the international system built around the League of Nations was already beginning to falter—long before a new form of multilateralism would eventually emerge.
At its core, the “Spirit of Geneva” rests on a set of cardinal values shaped by history, the product of a long and subtle weaving of ideas and principles.
