Hide Profile

The Yale-United Nations Oral History Project conducted oral history interviews to preserve the recollections of those involved in international political developments in which the United Nations has played a role. The project is affiliated with the Institution for Social and Policy Studies and the Department of Political Science at Yale University. The project is a continuation of a previous sutdy undertaken under the auspices of Yale University between 1989-1991. The earlier study focused on important developments in the early history of the U.N., while the current project is primarily concerned with Central America, Namibia, Cambodia, and the Iran/Iraq War and the experience of UNSCOM in Iraq. Interviews were recorded on audiocassette, transcribed, and sent to interviewees for editing. The interviews were conducted by James S. Sutterlin, Jean E. Krasno, and William Powell. In addition to copies of transcripts in Manuscripts and Archives, Sterling Memorial Library, Yale University, copies of these interviews (and additional interviews not deposited at Yale) are available to researchers at the Dag Hammarskjöld Library at the United Nations.
