Bourmaud, Philippe (Author)
Influenced by humanitarian colonial movements, the League of Nations imposed an anti-alcohol policy on the powers that administered the former German colonies as B mandates and C mandates. The policy is best understood by what is known today as an international agenda. Despite increasing doubts about the demographic arguments used to justify it, namely the supposed depopulation of the colonies by European alcohol imports, the Permanent Mandates Commission that supervised the governments of the various mandates insisted that mandatory administrations should enforce it. Faced with its own experts' uncertainties about the real incidence of alcoholism, and with the overall growth of alcohol imports in the mandates, the commission stuck nonetheless to its anti-alcohol agenda, exerting a definite normative influence on the way the colonial powers ruled the mandates.
