dc.description.abstract | After surviving the destruction of World War II safely in Bern, Switzerland, IFLA reorganized and began assisting damaged and decimated libraries around the world. It ignored the politics of its member states and allowed and encouraged them to work with each other. The article traces the disagreements among the various factions - including the two dominant ideologies of the world, capitalism and communism - which threatened the foundations of the Federation. Highlighted are earlier debates on the structure of IFLA, and regional representation on the Executive Board. Also included is a survey of the ideological controversies occurring at IFLA Conferences beginning with the 1968 IFLA Conference in Frankfurt. | |
