Abstract:

This report presents the archives of the Swedish Mission Association [SMF] (Svenska Missionsförbundet) which operated in French Moyen Congo during the Interbellum. The archives are part of the Swedish National Archives (Riksarkivet) in Stockholm and could be seen to provide a counterweight to French official administrative records.

Les archives font partie des Archives nationales suédoises (Riksarkivet) à Stockholm et pourraient être considérées comme contrepoids aux archives administratives officielles françaises.
