The artist Diego Tonus created a project 'Processing Authorities', based on the unique collection of gavels belonging to the International Institute of Social History. These hammers were used in assemblies of Dutch emancipatory movements in the 19th and 20th centuries for calling the meeting to order or marking the conclusion of collective decisions. The Institute collected the hammers over the years when they became redundant as the organizations dissolved.

Central European University / OSA Archivum
What did the gray army of underground press editors, printers and distributors think of their activities from a political point of view? This question is motivated by a double aim: to re-introduce the political background into samizdat studies, and to open up the history of political thought from a grassroots perspective.
