Traveling to and from IISH

Main venue

International Institute of Social History, Cruquiusweg 31, Amsterdam

The building the IISH nowadays is located in, used to be a former cocoa warehouse. Its collections comprise archival manuscripts (with the original manuscript of Das Kapital by Karl Marx as one of its ‘treasures’, but also large digital files have also been collected or created since then, such as the Historical Sample of the Netherlands. The collected material serves as one of the foundations for the IISH’s research, which has ‘global labour history’ as its theme. This involves the global history of labour and labour relations, centred on the role of working people themselves. More info on the history of the IISH can be found here.
