The papers of Clarence Clyde Ferguson (1924-1983), attorney,
educator, public servant, diplomat, and humanitarian, were presented
to the Harvard Law School Library as a gift by his daughters, Claire
Ferguson Garcia, Hope Ferguson, and Eve Ferguson, on February 26,
1985.
Access to these papers is

Library. This collection is open to the public, but is housed

the material in our collections. Requests for permission to publish
material from this collection should be directed to the Special
Collections staff. Researchers who obtain permission to publish from
the Harvard Law School Library are also responsible for identifying

The papers of Clarence Clyde
Ferguson (1924-1983), attorney, educator, diplomat, civil servant,
and humanitarian, cover the years 1955 to 1984; there is also a
considerable amount of undated material.
The collection
contains correspondence (both letters received and carbons of letters
sent), agenda of meetings, memoranda, reports, research and lecture
note, outlines, examination papers, drafts, manuscripts of
unpublished writings, bibliographies, newspaper clippings, other
printed items, official press releases, and telegrams.
Ambassador Ferguson's papers document his service with the U.S.
Department of State and with the United Nations in the late 1960's
and early 1970's, and his teaching career at the Harvard Law School,
from 1975 until his death. The main theme running through all of
these papers is Professor Ferguson's concern with human rights
violations and his human rights advocacy. This advocacy is reflected
in the international assignments that he accepted, in his writings,
and in the courses he taught at the Harvard Law School.
- Contingent I.
-
Series I.Nigeria/BiafraThis Series covers the period from January 1969 to October 1974,
with major emphasis on the years 1969 to 1970 when Professor Ferguson
served as special coordinator of relief to civilian victims of the
Nigerian civil war. It includes source materials, e.g., Dr. Karl A.
Western's medical report on Biafra; a report by Ingvar Berg, head of
the Scandinavian relief agency Nordchuchaid, of their operation in
Biafra; Sate Department and White House memoranda; and a background
paper on the politics of relief. The Series deals with problems of
airlifting food and medical supplies into war zones, and documents
how much negotiation and diplomacy were required before relief
efforts to the war-ravaged areas of Nigeria/Biafra could get under
way. Post-1970 materials contain summary reports and papers on
Nigeria and Biafra.
-
Series II.Miscellaneous International
MaterialsThis Series relates to human rights
violations and economic and political problems in some of the other
underdeveloped countries in Africa, Asia, and South America, and
covers the years 1968 to 1983. Specific countries surveyed are South
Africa, Uganda, and Chile. Other issues range from labor problems at
the Bougainville copper mines to patent suits involving Burnelli
Avionics Corporation to Cointelpro, a United States Government
operation against Black revolutionary groups in America. Four folders
include the papers presented at the "Seminar on National and Regional
Arrangements for the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights in the
Asian Region," held in Sri Lanka in 1982, in which Ambassador
Ferguson participated. Fourteen experts representing ten countries
submitted papers at this Seminar. One of Professor Ferguson's
interest was the concept of the "New International Economic Order,"
and this Series contains his writings on the role seen for Third
World countries in world economics, and his notes on United Nations
resolutions concerning the New International Economic Order. Other
materials deal with a UNESCO conference in 1983 on the protection of
world cultural and national heritage. There is also a group of
chronologically arranged press releases and statements (1973-1975) by
Ambassador Ferguson while he was a member of the United States
Mission to the United Nations.
-
Series III.Human RightsMaterials in this series span the years 1969 to 1983 and are
arranged chronologically. Essentially this group of papers contains
United Nations reports, agenda of conferences on human rights issues
(San Juan; Nairobi), legislative documents, transcripts of interviews
with leading human rights activists, drafts of proposals, manuscripts
of speeches, and outlines. Ambassador Ferguson retained a
considerable amount of material on the Strasbourg Conference on the
Human Rights Aspects of the Helsinki Final Act, held in Strasbourg,
France, in June, 1977, including press releases and correspondence
predating the conference. This group of papers reflects the
frustrations encountered in legislating on behalf of human rights and
enforcing such legislation.
-
Series IV.Teaching Notes and Materials, Course
Outlines, Research Notes, Etc.Materials in
this series cover the years 1978 to 1983, for courses and seminars
given by Professor Ferguson at the Harvard Law School. Subjects
represented in this group are Professor Ferguson's courses in Civil
Procedure and his seminars on Human Rights and on the New
International Economic Order; there is a small amount of materials on
courses he taught occasionally, e.g., Federal Jurisdiction, and
United Nations Law. Materials retained by Professor Ferguson are
holograph and typed notes, outlines, class assignments,
bibliographies, syllabi, examination questions, problems, and
research materials, e.g. articles, observations, and other printed
items. For the most part, these items are photocopies. The NIEO and
Human Rights seminars draw on sources included in the Series
Miscellaneous International Materials, and Human Rights. Professor
Ferguson's notes are detailed, and document how his courses evolved
over the years.
-
Series V.Writings, Statements, etc. of
Clarence Clyde Ferguson, Jr.This Series
consists of unpublished writings, both titled and untitled;
testimonials and statements before official bodies such as the U.S.
Senate; outlines and drafts of papers; reports; and two bibliographic

American diplomacy, and the demands of the changing economic
conditions around the world. Human rights violations examined
occurred in this country and abroad. Papers span the years 1968 to
1983. Writings on human rights should be used in conjunction with the
Series Human Rights, and also with Professor Ferguson's teaching
notes. Writings are in handwritten and typed form.
-
Series VI.Writings and Papers By
OthersThis Series is composed of manuscripts
dealing with legal, economic, race, and human rights issues in the
United States and abroad. There are seven folders of draft papers
which resulted from the so-called "1980's Project of the Council on
Foreign Relations." A number of the papers in this Series were
written for Professor Ferguson's seminars.
-
Series VII.CorrespondenceThis Series spans the years 1978 through 1983, with a small amount
of posthumous material. This Series is arranged chronologically. The
nature of the correspondence is professional, with a few personal
items. Most of the correspondence is incoming mail. Some of Professor
Ferguson's correspondents became his close friends, e.g.,
Ex-president G.L. Binaisa of Uganda, and Amadou Mahtar M'Bow,
Director General of UNESCO. Ferguson also received numerous pleas for
assistance from Third World students wishing to come to the United
States. The Correspondence Series reflects the high esteem in which
Professor Ferguson was held here and in countries around the
world.
-
