Communist Party of Sudan - Hizb al-Shuyu’i al-Sudani Collection (1970-
2003) at the IISH, Amsterdam.
• The IISH recently received a new collection regarding Sudan: papers from the Communist
Party of Sudan CPS, Cairo Department, 1970-2003, and papers of the National Democratic
Alliance (NDA) 1990-2003. A large portion of the Cairo Department collection concerns the
Sudanese student movement in Egypt, especially during the 1970’s, when more Sudanese
students studied in Egypt than in Sudan itself.
• The National Democratic Alliance was founded as an underground organisation in Khartoum
in September 1989, only three months after the military coup by General Omar-al-Bashir who
put the present regime of the National Islamic Front in power. The NDA leaders operated in
exile from Cairo. The collection includes various underground CPS publications as well as
those from trade unions, student and youth movements, women’s organizations and
professional organizations. In addition there are eight notebooks containing the handwritten
outlines of two books by Mohamed Ibrahim Nuqqud, secretary general of the CPS: Footnotes
on Landownership, documents in Dar Fur, and Dialogue with Morowa.
