A Usable Collection A Usable Established in 1935, the International Institute of Social History is one of the world's leading research institutes on social history, holding one of the richest collections in the field. These collections and archives contain evidence of a social and economic world that affected the life and happiness of millions of people. Including material from every continent from the French Revolution to the Chinese student revolt of 1989 and the new social and protest movements of the early 2000s, the IISH collection is intensively used by researchers from all over the world. In his long and singular career, former director Jaap Collection Kloosterman has been central to the development of the IISH into a world leader in researching and collecting social and labour history. The 35 essays brought together in this volume in honour of him, A Usable give a rare insight into the history of this unique institute and the development of its collections. The contributors also offer answers to the question what it takes to devote a lifetime to collecting social Collection history, and to make these collections available for research. The essays offer a unique and multifaceted Essays in Honour of Jaap Kloosterman view on the development of social history and collecting its sources on a global scale. on Collecting Social History Edited by Aad Blok, Jan Lucassen and Huub Sanders ISBN 978 90 8964 688 0 AUP.nl A Usable Collection A Usable Collection Essays in Honour of Jaap Kloosterman on Collecting Social History Edited by Aad Blok, Jan Lucassen and Huub Sanders AmsterdAm university press 4 | A usAble collection A usAble collection | 5 Contents Preface 10 Henk Wals Social History Sources, Knowledge and Research 12 Introduction to A Usable Collection Aad Blok, Jan Lucassen and Huub Sanders How to Qualify for the Directorate of the iish? 24 Jan Lucassen pArt i – the emergence of sociAl history collections i.1 Prolegomena to a Social History of Dutch Archives 40 Eric Ketelaar i.2 The founder of the iish, as Experienced by his Daughter 56 Interview with Claire Posthumus Huub Sanders i.3 Looking for Traces of Huizinga 66 His Relation with N.W.

This is understandable, since we teamed up for decades running the iish: first Jaap was deputy director and I head of operations, later Jaap became director, and I advanced to deputy director. We interacted daily, sometimes in very intense sessions in times of crisis, as well as on our many long drives together to the Czech Republic or Hungary to fetch collections there. Jaap and I often shared the same view about many things. Whenever we differed, our positions were very complementary. In 2006, when I left the iish to become the director of the Huygens Institute, I was suddenly on my own and without a sparring partner. That was an ad- justment for me, and my guess is that Jaap had to get used to it as well. I have returned to the iish and once again see Jaap daily. I still value his opinion. That each of us now has a different role matters little to me. We interact as we always have, even though Jaap’s office has been moved a few doors further away. He is an exceptionally valuable advisor, and I hope to continue to benefit from his input for quite a while. Jaap Kloosterman has been involved with the iish throughout his career. In 1969 he started working at the Institute in the Bakunin Department. In 1985 he became deputy director of Collections, and he was appointed director in 1993, when Eric Fischer left for a position at the Verbond van Verzekeraars. Jaap’s appointment was not taken for granted within the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences (knAw). Board members of the knAw usually take the view that acclaimed scholars make the best directors of its institutes. Appointing Kloosterman – a university dropout – may have been an occupational accident within the erudite society of the Academy, but the choice was very fortunate indeed for the iish. In hindsight, after all, Jaap Kloosterman has in my view been one of the best directors the iish has had and easily holds a candle to Posthumus, Rüter, and Fischer. Eric Fischer, during his relatively brief period as direc- tor between 1984 and 1993, gave the Institute a complete overhaul, setting up a research department, acquiring the new premises at Cruquiusweg, and extending collection development beyond Europe. And it was Jaap Kloosterman’s innovative spirit that guided the iish into an unprecedent- ed heyday in the 1990s. Jaap introduced information technology in the iish very early on, revolutionized collection processing, and was aware before anyone else of the enormous impact the Internet would have. Under his ae- gis, the iish became a pioneer in many fields and became renowned as a superior international research institute. Jaap Kloosterman had a unique managerial style that is difficult to de- scribe. He did not operate according to a set protocol. “Coaching” may best prefAce | 11 capture his approach. Jaap often talks with co-workers, possibly over dinner at whatever happens to be his favourite restaurant at the time. His impres- sive knowledge of virtually all areas the Institute covers may unintentional- ly be overwhelming, but he rarely imposes his ideas, at least not noticeably. Jaap’s most distinctive trait is his ability to relativize. What many people would call “wonderful,” he will at best label “nice” or “usable,” often preced- ing such modifiers with the qualifier “fairly.” The title of this book – A Usable Collection – refers to this practice. In addition, the term “usable” is the short- est possible summary of Jaap’s chief principle in developing and cataloguing the iish collection: it should be usable for researchers. This was the basis for many of his decisions, which in many cases were years ahead of what was to become standard practice in traditional library and archival circles. Jaap Kloosterman gave his co-workers extensive latitude. Thanks to his efforts, the iish has become a setting where creativity and individual ini- tiative thrive.

  • Henriette Roland Horst, Jacques Engels and the Influence of Class
    ‘More freedom’ or ‘more harmony’? Henriette Roland Holst, Jacques Engels and the influence of class and gender on socialists’ sexual attitudes Paper submitted to the seminar on “Labour organizations and sexuality”, Université de Bourgogne, Dijon 5 October 2001 Peter Drucker1 Sheila Rowbotham once wrote, ‘A radical critical history ... requires a continuing movement between conscious criticism and evidence, a living relationship between questions coming from a radical political movement and the discovery of aspects of the past which would have been ignored within the dominant framework.’2 Her words may apply with particular force to the history of labour organizations and sexuality. Historians can find it easier to find criticisms and questions to raise about the past than to sustain the ‘continuing movement’ required to understand the past in its own terms. The temptation is great to compare positions on sexuality taken in labour organizations in the past with positions held by historians in the present. The result can be either an idealization of sex-radical forbears or a condemnation of those whose ideas fell short of twenty-first-century enlightenment — in either case a curiously old-fashioned sort of history, which benefits little from the advances made by social historians outside ‘the dominant framework’, particularly social historians of sexuality, since the 1970s. Analyzing positions on sexuality taken in labour organizations in the past in the light of knowledge that has been accumulating about social and sexual patterns of their specific periods seems likely to be a more fruitful approach. Four different angles of attack seem particularly likely to be useful.

Their contribution has been invaluable in the research and writing of this piece. As well as their support I would also like to thank the Office of Jim Fitzpatrick and the staff at Strangers Bar for offers of guidance and support, which although coming at a very late stage when the bulk of the work had been completed gave me the motivation to push me over the finish line. Finally, I would also like to pay tribute to my Great Grandfathers Harry E.C Webb OBE and Charles "Barlow" Mann who both played an important role in some of the events that are documented, without their involvement there would have been no interest in this period for me to even consider writing about it.

  • Anarchist Modernism and Yiddish Literature

Bringing together original historical research on the radical press and close readings of Yiddish avant-garde poetry by Moyshe-Leyb Halpern, Peretz Markish, Yankev Glatshteyn, and others, I show that the development of anarchist modernism was both a transnational literary trend and a complex worldview. My research draws from hitherto unread material in international archives to document the world of the Yiddish anarchist press and assess the scope of its literary influence. The dissertation’s theoretical framework is informed by diaspora studies, gender studies, and translation theory, to which I introduce anarchist diasporism as a new term.
