Resumen

Este artículo ofrece una relectura de la relación de la Sociedad de Naciones con la información y la política del lenguaje resituando la organización en los contextos geopolíticos y filosóficos de largo plazo del llamado «giro lingüístico». Al mismo tiempo, el artículo argumenta que observando en detalle incluso las cuestiones de lenguaje más peculiares que se le plantearon a la Liga, podemos ver vínculos profundos y a menudo tecnológicamente impulsados entre las transformaciones en los dominios de la filosofía y la lingüística y las estrategias políticas nacientes en el escenario mundial. Ambos reflejaron un cambio conceptual hacia la idea de que las palabras constriñeron, moldearon, o incluso alteraron la «realidad».
