Description: A pretty 1964 gold coloured metal pin badge featuring the IUS logo. The badge face is 3.5cm high and has a safety clasp style fastener to the rear. It features the IUS logo in the centre and the text '8th CONGRESS 1964'. The IUS, formed in Prague in 1946 and was a worldwide student association recognised by the United Nation. Created to defend student rights, improve welfare and education standards. It was apparent, even in 1946, that the opposing influences of democracy and communism would hinder long term cooperation of IUS student bodies around the globe. Within years the Western democracies had withdrawn support and the IUS turned its attention to spreading the benefits of socialism to the student bodies of South America and Africa, The Czechs had never wanted the IUS to become a pro-Soviet organ. Many Czech liberals were operating as best they could within the structure of the IUS. Funding came from the Czech and Soviet governments and in 1990 the organisation was expelled from Czech lands because of it's pro-Russian stance.
