“UNRRA, whose mandate was to coordinate Allied relief, was viewed as a test case for future patterns of international organizations.3 Designed to prime the liberal economic order and foster democratic governments to preserve a peaceful world order, it was conceived as a vital program not only to save lives but also to safeguard American and British strategic interests. For many of its creators, UNRRA “reflected their faith in the ability to bind compassion and technocracy, to create a muscular, modernized, spirit of progress.”4”
