Access the archives of the top-ranked international policy think tank outside the United States
Gale has partnered with Chatham House, a world leader in policy research on international affairs, to provide online access to Chatham House's rich archive covering the 20th and 21st centuries. As part of the Gale Primary Sources family, Chatham House Online Archive: Module 1: 1920-1979 contains high-level analysis and research on global trends and key events and issues, from the aftermath of World War I into the Cold War.
Based in St James's Square, London, Chatham House has long been regarded as one of the world's premier policy institutes on international affairs. Since its creation in 1920, it has been a source of independent analysis and informed debate, promoting open as well as confidential discussions about significant developments in the global arena. Its teams of researchers produce independent and rigorous analysis of global, regional, and country-specific challenges. In 2009, Chatham House was named the top Non-US think tank by the University of Pennsylvania's Global Go To Think Tanks survey (by the Think Tanks and Civil Societies Program at the University of Pennsylvania), a position it has held for the past six years.

FEATURED TESTIMONIAL
“Researchers and others interested in international affairs, diplomacy, and world politics and trade will find much of relevance and interest – including material that has previously been hard to find and access. Perhaps most exciting is the digitisation of transcripts, and in some cases audio recordings, of public meetings (those not held under “Chatham House rule”) – which include speakers such as the historian Arnold Toynbee, Dr. David Owen (speaking in 1977 on nuclear non-proliferation), Lord Trevelyan, and Hugh Mackintosh Foot, ambassador to the United Nations (1964- 1970).”
