Assorted transcripts, manuscripts, correspondence and published articles

CP/MONT/3. As a Transnationalist Communist who often travelled to different European countries, Montagu did not restrict his submissions to those in English magazines. These items include submissions to Russian and Bulgarian publications as well as his submissions to English journals which supply sympathetic portraits of the Soviet Union. While Montagu often contributed to publications, his correspondence with their editors covers subjects such as possible Communist affiliation to the Labour Party, research for his article on Solzhenitsyn, and the funding of those publications. A keen sports fan, Montagu kept records of his plans to use sporting philosophy to unite countries and increase British empathy with the Soviet Union; he also hoped sport could be used to foster world peace.
