Research Abstract

This research project contributed to the understanding of how the U.S. government and American lead international non-governmental organization interacted between the World Wars.
Established in 1925, the Institute of Pacific Relations (IPR) was the first international non-governmental organization to focus on the Asia-Pacific region. The purpose of the IPR was to ostensibly serve as an information center and forum of scientific research for the region that was independent of any specific government. However, IPR performed a significant political role in international politics concerning Asia Pacific region. In 1939, Edward C. Carter, Secretary General of the IPR, diligently worked to obtain any related information for U.S. government concerning economic sanction against Japan and Anglo-French negotiation with the Soviet Union. He also played a significant role as "political missionary" in China.
