Hamza A. Alavi: 'Pakistan Today' & Other Documents from 1959 and 1960

Materialien zur Analyse von Opposition

Von Jürgen Schröder, Berlin, 20.2.2013

We present here few documents that were found bundled in the remnants of the archives of the Western German Sozialistischer Deutscher Studentenbund (SDS - Socialist German Student League) without any further files or documents relating to it, as to our current knowledge.

While the two leaflets (see 2nd Nov. 1960) are personally signed by Hamza Alavi also the journal 'Pakistan Today' seems to be mainly written by himself with only few contributions by others.
