Correspondence with journals and labour movement organisations, with related records

CP/MONT/4. While Montagu is not as famous as some of his contemporaries, these records do feature some well known figures including: a membership list from the 1917 club listing J. Ramsay MacDonald and Margaret Bondfield MP as members, a survey completed by a Jerome K. Jerome on the subject of youth unemployment, and negotiations on the subject of Leon Trotsky visiting Britain. Montagu was strongly opposed to fascism and his papers from the European Workers' Anti-Fascist conference of 1933 are included here. Montagu was also supportive of the women's sufferage and access to contraception campaigns, the anti-apartheid movement, and in 1928 he corresponded with 'War Resisters International'.
