Description:... Established in Amsterdam in 1935, the International Institute of Social History is one of the world's leading research centres. Its exceptional research collections owe much to its former director Jaap Kloosterman. The contributors offer a rare insight into the history of the institute and the motivation behind devoting a lifetime to collecting social history sources.
