Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis IISG (Amsterdam) Algemene informatie

Missie
Het Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis (IISG) is het grootste documentatie- en onderzoekscentrum ter wereld op het terrein van de sociale geschiedenis. Sinds zijn oprichting in 1935 zet het instituut zich in voor het verzamelen, behouden en ter beschikking te stellen van het erfgoed van sociale bewegingen. Het instituut is onafhankelijk en betrouwbaar en daardoor een natuurlijke bewaarplaats voor het dikwijls bedreigde culturele erfgoed van de arbeidersbeweging en andere emancipatorische groepen en stromingen. De onderzoeksafdeling van het instituut richt zich vooral op de geschiedenis van de ontwikkeling van arbeidsverhoudingen en organiseert internationale projecten op dit terrein. De omvangrijke verzameling (archieven, bibliotheek- en audiovisueel materiaal) beslaat ruim 50 km planklengte. Het IISG is een instituut van de Koninklijke Nederlandse Akademie van Wetenschappen (KNAW).
Collecties
Het IISG bezit meer dan 3000 archieven, 1 miljoen boeken en tijdschriften en een grote collectie beeld- en geluidsmateriaal. De Collecties zijn ontsloten door middel van een online catalogus, een archievenindex en inventarissen. Het Instituut biedt onderdak aan het Nederlandsch Economisch-Historisch Archief (NEHA) en het Persmuseum (NPM). Beide bieden aanvullende collecties en diensten aan. Hun materiaal is opgenomen in de catalogus van het IISG. Bezoekers kunnen de collecties raadplegen in de studiezaal.
Onderzoek en Publicaties
Het Instituut verricht en stimuleert wetenschappelijk onderzoek. Het is een ontmoetingsplaats voor onderzoekers. Het organiseert congressen, symposia en internationale onderzoeksprojecten. Het IISG publiceert ook resultaten van onderzoek en maakt daarbij gebruik van internationale wetenschappelijke uitgevers en een eigen uitgeverij. Het tijdschrift van het Instituut, de International Review of Social History, wordt gepubliceerd door Cambridge University Press en verschijnt drie maal per jaar, met een supplement.

History and Activities

The International Institute of Social History (IISH) was officially established on November 25, 1935, but its history goes back to the 1920s. In 1914, Nicolaas W. Posthumus (1880-1960), who ranked among the pioneers of modern economic history in the Netherlands had set up the Netherlands Economic History Archive (NEHA), the first of a series of scholarly institutions he initiated. The NEHA concentrated on the preservation of archives of companies and related organizations, and on the collection of other sources relevant to economic history. Since Posthumus was a collector with a broad vision, he included materials from individuals and organizations in the Dutch labour movement.
Early Years
At the beginning of the 1930s two independent developments made the establishment of a separate institution desirable. First, the fast growing social-historical collections present in NEHA demanded a separate approach. Second, the political situation in Central and Eastern Europe was rapidly worsening. Hitler's seizure of power and developments in the Soviet Union threatened people of all convictions within the labour movement, as well as their collections. Posthumus was dedicated to saving their papers as he was sure they would be destroyed if they fell into the wrong hands, or in the most favourable case would no longer be accessible to independent researchers for many years.
He envisaged an independent, neutral, scholarly institution and was fortunate to meet Nehemia de Lieme, director of De Centrale, an insurance company with close ties to the Social-Democratic movement. Its statutes required the donation of a part of its profits to cultural aims of the labour movement. De Lieme became convinced of the importance of Posthumus' initiative and De Centrale supported the Institute on an extraordinary scale in the years preceding 1940.
In the period 1935-40, attention was focused on saving material from all over Europe. The most important collection acquired in this period was the archival legacy of Marx and Engels. The Institute's extremely active first librarian, Annie Adama van Scheltema-Kleefstra, actually smuggled Bakunin's manuscripts (part of the famous Nettlau collection) out of Austria, just before the Nazis marched into Vienna. Libraries and archives of Mensheviks and Social-Revolutionaries who had fled Russia were also brought to Amsterdam.
The list of major acquisitions is too long to be included here, but mention should be made of the records of the CNT and the FAI : only weeks before Franco took the final Republican areas in Northern Spain in May 1939, they were brought to safety over the Pyrenees. How serious the risks were for the archives that the Institute tried to collect became apparent when its Paris branch was broken into in November 1936. Documents of Trotsky were stolen, most probably by agents of Stalin's secret service.
Posthumus' far-sightedness had led him to set up a subsidiary of the IISH in Britain. The most valuable archives were taken there to safety when, following the Munich Agreement, the Institute's Board became convinced that the threat of war would not stop at neutral Holland's borders. And Posthumus was proved right when only days after the country was occupied by German troops in May 1940 a group of Nazi functionaries presented themselves at the Institute's door. On July 15, the IISH was closed by order of the Sicherheitsdienst. Staff were sent home and the Einsatzstab Rosenberg moved in.
War and Recovery
Although many materials had been taken to safety, the library alone still comprised around 300,000 titles. A number of very important Dutch records were also still located in the Institute, including many of the SDAP (the Social-Democratic Labour Party). German bureaucracy was divided on the collection's fate. Over time, parts were shipped to Germany to be used for a variety of purposes. In September 1944, the remainder was removed and shipped east on board 12 Rhine barges.
Most of it was only rediscovered in 1946 near Hannover in the British zone of Germany. Other documents were returned thanks to the efforts of the US Army's Offenbach Archival Depot. Material located in the Soviet zone of Europe was returned with less alacrity or not at all. The SDAP records were sent back from Poland in 1956-57.
In 1991, following the failed coup in Moscow, other IISH materials proved to have been preserved for years in a top-secret archival institution in the Soviet capital. All in all, however, war-time losses proved to be remarkably small.
It would be a decade before the Institute was back to normal. When the damage was surveyed after 5 May 1945, it turned out that literally everything had been removed; there was no catalogue, no furniture, no filing cabinets etc. During the 1950s, IISH worked to reestablish order in the archive and library. The financial situation was problematic, since De Centrale was no longer able to subsidize the Institute's work in the way it had before the war. With assistance from the University of Amsterdam, the City of Amsterdam and monies received from the Wiedergutmachung fund and the Ford Foundation, the Institute gradually began to recover.
Recent Developments
In the 1960s and 1970s, the Institute benefited from the growing interest in the history of social movements and ideas. It resumed its old task of saving the archives and libraries of persecuted people and organizations. This is how Amsterdam became home to material from Latin America in the 1970s. Similarly, in the late 1980s, action was taken to provide a safe haven for the documents of Turkish parties, trade unions and individuals. Another example concerns the Chinese democratic movement of 1989, whose documents were collected by participants in the events in Beijing, with the assistance of IISH staff on the spot.
Since 1979, the Institute has worked within the framework of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. For the ever growing collection and the growing staff new accomodation was found in 1989 in a former cocoa warehouse in Amsterdam's Eastern Docks redevelopment area. Here the Institute was physically reunited with the NEHA. The Netherlands Press Museum, an independent organization, also moved in. The IISH online catalogue provides integrated access to the collections of the three institutions.
Today virtual users outnumber those in the Reading Room by about 150 to 1. The online catalogue and other finding aids are accessible from a website as well as through the RLIN system of the Research Libraries Group. Other electronic facilities include webguides, current bibliographies, discussion lists, and a news service. At the same time, though an essential part of the Institute's activities from the start, research has become increasingly important. Perhaps its best-known products are the International Review of Social History, published by Cambridge University Press, and the European Social Science History Conference, which every other year brings about 1,000 researchers from dozens of countries and many disciplines to the Netherlands.
Although many of the 19th century West-European collections were complemented through extensive microfilming in Moscow after 1991, the focus of collection development has shifted away from Europe and towards West, South and South-East Asia. As a result, the Institute regularly undertakes oral history projects in order to supplement the often meagre written resources that are found on the spot. It also created the Historical Sample of the Netherlands, a 'metasource' created from local birth, death and marriage registers from 1812 to 1922. Postings to selected Internet news groups, some dating back as far as 1990, are being archived on a daily basis. Offices and correspondents in Berlin, Moscow, Ankara, Karachi, Dakha and Semarang support these new efforts to safeguard an international cultural heritage that still is, too often, in danger of disappearing.

Carlo Onofrio Gori. Battiquorum

12 Giugno 2011   Fatta! ...ho già votato ...ovviamente 4 SÌ! Non so come andrà, non so se servirà, ma questi corrotti, ipocriti e ineffabili oligarchi (dal grecooligoi - oλίγοι = pochi - e arché - ἀρχή = potere, comando - insomma un governo di un gruppo ristretto di persone che pensano soprattutto ai propri interessi) non avranno mai la mia approvazione! So che il voto non basta e che in mille diverse situazioni di vero disagio occorre far sentire, insieme, forte e alta, la propria voce in molti altri modi. Comunque... no al “dittatore” che ci ha “fregato” (vedi The Economist: Berlusconi,“L'uomo che ha fregato un intero paese”!). Dittatore non “formale”, ma “sostanziale”, in virtù del fatto che ha potuto avere la maggioranza grazie anche ad una “sinistra dabbene” e “interessata” che gli ha permesso a suo tempo di poter governare conservando tutti intatti i propri “mezzi di manipolazione di massa”.
