The use of archives to promote social justice and respect for human rights is a common point amongst the professionals of archives. Sadly, History bears evidence as to the use of archives as tools of control and repression: Franco, Stasi or the latin-american dictatorships spring to mind as harrowing examples of the devastating effects that archives can produce when used in this way...

7 archivist positions published for the International Residual Mechanism for UN Criminal Tribunals
The International Residual Mechanism for the UN Criminals Tribunals established in December 2010 is publishing 7 archivist positions. After publishing back in December 2011 a Chief Archivist (P-5) position based in The Hague, the Residual Mechanism is now publishing a Chied Deputy Archivist (P-4) position based in Arusha and a set of three positions each for both Arusha and The Hague: Archivist, Digital Archivist and Audiovisual Archivist, all of them at the P-3 level. Really a remarkable feat for a truly ambitious project.
