Disputed Archival Claims - 1998 and 2019 Survey Data

This dataset comprises a spreadsheet containing the responses to two international surveys about displaced archives. The spreadsheet has two sheets: the first contains data pulled from Leopold Auer's 1998 report on his survey, Disputed Archival Claims, conducted for UNESCO and the International Council on Archives (ICA); the second sheet contains data received by James Lowry for his survey, conducted for the ICA's Expert Group on Shared Archival Heritage in 2018 and 2019, published in 2020.

This dataset was compiled by James Lowry, John Moffat and Pauline Soum-Paris. It contains data collected and presented by Leopold Auer (1997/1998). Marianne Deraze contributed to the collection of the 2019 data by posting the survey to the ICA website. The data was contributed by representatives of the countries and organisations making the claims.
