| Zusammenfassung: | <abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <p>Confronted with dramatic numbers of refugees from the collapsed Russian empire, national bureaucracies and emerging international organisations struggled to provide an adequate response.

The following article reconstructs this unique experiment in multilateral cooperation between local bureaucracies, humanitarian organisations, and the League. Strategic decisions on the design of the census, dictated by the Commission’s lack of staff and their resorting to experts who were liable for other humanitarian players, affected the census and yielded results hardly usable for effective relief action.</p> </abstract> |
