Sir Alfred Eckhard Zimmern (26 January 1879 – 24 November 1957) was an English classical scholar, historian, and political scientist writing on international relations.[1] A British policymaker during World War I and a prominent liberal thinker, Zimmern played an important role in drafting the blueprint for what would become the League of Nations.[2][3]
He was the inaugural Woodrow Wilson Chair of International Politics at Aberystwyth University.[2][3] His book The Third British Empire was among the first to apply the expression "British Commonwealth" to the British Empire.[4] He was a prominent liberal internationalist.[5] He was also credited with coining the phrase "welfare state",[6][7][8] which was made popular a few years later by William Temple.[9]
