This dissertation examines the responses of non-Western peoples to the new vision of international order articulated during the First World War by the president of the United States, Woodrow Wilson. It focuses on the relationship between Wilsonian rhetoric, the opportunities for international action created by the Paris Peace Conference, and the nearly simultaneous nationalist upheavals that erupted in the spring of 1919 in four disparate societies: Egypt, India, China and Korea. This study contends that the 1919 Revolution in Egypt, the Rowlatt Satyagraha in India, the May Fourth movement in China, and the March First uprising in Korea should be understood in the context of a broader “Wilsonian moment” that encouraged challenges to the norms of the prewar international order. It shows how emerging national movements outside the West appropriated Wilsonian language, refracted through local lenses, and adapted it to their own use, transforming its meaning in the process; it also argues that the rapid disintegration of the Wilsonian promise left a legacy of disillusionment that facilitated the spread of revisionist ideologies and movements in these societies.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The vast literature on the Peace Conference of 1919 is written almost exclusively from the perspectives of the great powers. Non-Western regions, aside from Japan, appear largely as inert masses of territory and humanity carved up among the victorious powers. This study, based on research in three continents and four languages, including Arabic and Chinese, restores these submerged voices in the international history of the period. It examines not only perceptions and actions of official and semi-official representatives, but also the role of popular action, the press, civic groups and overseas communities, who both reflected and participated in events on the international stage. This work highlights the relationships between shifting discourses of legitimacy in international society and the evolution of national identities and movements, and illuminates a crucial stage in the decline of the imperial order and the global spread of the national model of political organization in the transition to a postcolonial world.
