Proposal for further research at the IISG:

- Helen Garvy Papers (0.5 m. / Language: English)
Helen Garvy was one of the founders of the Harvard chapter of Students for a Democratic Society. Founded in 1960, SDS (also dubbed as ‘Rebels with a Cause’) quickly became one of America’s foremost pacifist organizations. The archive has not been indexed.
The Helen Garvy Papers include material on the Peace Research and Education Project (PREP), a program towards nonviolent education.

- National Committee of 100: London Committee Archives (1.27 m. / language: English / partly restricted – box 31 and 32 on 'spying for peace' are off-limits).
The committee of 100 was founded in 1960 as a means to organize nonviolent resistance to nuclear weapons. Nonviolent protest against nuclear armament has a rich history, and this is where it started. It will be interesting to see how their particular brand of nonviolent resistance relates to that of Gandhi.
Boxes of interest are: 14-19, which contain their working papers and correspondence; 22, which provides the papers and documents seized by the police in 1961; 36-38, which contain leaflets and other documents concerning the 1967 trial and subsequent imprisonment of Nicolas Walter, the only publicly identified member of Spies for Peace; and box 41, which deals with documents concerning a survey of former Committee members. This may provide further insight in the effectiveness of the methods used.

Kees Boeke was an important Dutch reformist educator, Quaker missionary and pacifist. In 1921, he was one of the founders of Paco, WRI’s predecessor.

- Archief J.B. Th. Hugenholtz (5.6 m. / language: Dutch/English)
Johannes B. Th. Hugenholtz (1888-1973) was a radical protestant minister who had been deeply involved in the Dutch and international peace movement. Most of the material in the archive relates to the religious pacifist tradition, in particular the (Netherlands-based) International Union of Antimilitaristic Clergymen and Kerk en Vrede (the Dutch chapter of IFOR). From its conception in 1928, Kerk en Vrede had been influenced by Gandhi. It will be interesting to try and detect traces of Gandhian nonviolent resistance in the writings of the International Union of Antimilitaristic Clergymen.
Boxes of interest: 11-20, which contain documents regarding the International Union of Antimilitaristic Clergymen, 22, which relates to the Peace Army (1932-1937); and 55, which provides the early history of Kerk en Vrede.

Boxes of interest are: 24, which contains material regarding the 1961 WRI Triennial in India, where WRI tried to merge Western pacifism with the Indian tradition of nonviolence; 38, documents on nonviolence; 66, which contains a host of documents concerning the 1961 WRI Triennial in Gandhigram and Van Wijk’s subsequent trips to India; and 313-322, which contain correspondence with and documents by the WRI.
