The collection comprises 110 dossiers containing documents collated by HW which cover mainly the past eighties and nineteen's. The collection is composed of various kinds of documents such as documentation material, academic papers in various stages of their production, texts of conferences and speeches, press cuttings, reports, memoranda and some correspondence and handwritten notes. A little part of documents relates to the elaboration and production of research texts in the narrow sense. The material has been created by multiple provenances since the criteria of selection was to serve HW in her inter-disciplinary academic research and teaching activities as well as in her important function as expert and adviser to policy makers. Thus the collection presents as a thematically orientated one which reflects HW's research interest in contemporary European Integration history and more specifically the decision making processes, the present states of politics, structures and possible future developments of Europe. Standing topics are 'Great Britain and the European Communities' (European Union), the European Treaties and Constitution, the institutional structure and functioning of European Communities (Union). Dominant provenances are European academic institutions and research centres, the European institutions, press reports and member States' Governments, political parties and interest groups
