Foreign Relations

An indirect way of establishing international contacts was the admission of foreign members who came to function - although informally - as personified 

It is notable that the individual societies paid various degrees of attention to promotion of the international networks. While the Seandinavian societies showed very little interest in the period before the First World War, in Germany the three chemical societies chose different strategies, with especially the Deutsche chemische Gesellschaft working deliberately on promotion of international networking between the national societies. Its prominent members participated in, among others, the work of the International Commission for Nomenclature established in 1889 in Paris. 

When in 1911 the International Association of Chemical Societies was established, it naturally became a new centre for international collaboration between the European chemical societies especially in the domain of pure chemistry. Societe chimique and the Chemical Society were its co-founders, along with the Deutsche chemische Gesellschaft. 

The last questions in the guidelines (see the preface) concern the issue of demarcation - or boundary drawing of the chemical societies. The authors considered how and to what extent the individual chemical societies reacted to the ongoing and incessantly negotiated social and professional demarcation of chemistry as a disdphne and a specific social entity. For the sake of simplicity the authors deliberations were based on the sociological theory of Thomas Gieryn (again, see the preface). 

The authors of this book have been able to respond to this analytical approach to different extents. In several national cases it is evident that the chemical societies chose more or less inclusive strategies - however, for different reasons. The inclusive strategy in the Scandinavian societies was primary based on the limited size of the scientific environments of the individual countries. More restrictive strategies might very well have hindered the survival of the small societies. In the French case, however, the open and inclusive attitude towards the industry was rooted in an expectation of an essential financial support therefore the boundary between the society and the applied sector in France should be looked at as a means of communication rather then as a barrier. This applies to many of the negotiated boundaries in several other societies, as does another fact mentioned in the French chapter, namely that the boundary-work was primarily done unreflectively as a result of everyday routines. The Dutch society undoubtedly chose the most inclusive strategy of all - a choice the society has maintained to the present and which has resulted in

Mark s activities in Vienna were not limited to research and administration. During this period, he was appointed a member of the Austrian Ministry of Education, President of the Committee on Wood Utilization, and a consultant to the Ministries of Industry, Agriculture, and Foreign Relations. The appointments were made by Engelbert Dollfuss, a wartime comrade of his, who became first Chancellor in 1932 and later anti-Nazi strong man of Austria. In addition, he served on the local avalanche squad and wrote several articles on prediction of avalanches.

Although the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee favourably reported on the protocol in 1926, there was strong lobbying against it, and the senate never voted on it. After the Second World War, President Truman withdrew it from the senate together with other inactive older treaties. Little attention was paid to the protocol for several years thereafter.
