Monograph on Plebiscites

Wambaugh’s massive, 1100-page Monograph on Plebiscites, with accompanying official documents, was published by Oxford University Press at the behest of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in 1920 and summarised her initial thinking on how to organise plebiscites in the wake of World War One. The text included many detailed maps of the economic, social, cultural and linguistic geographies of disputed territories in Europe and Latin America.
