These are the participants from 1968 for the yearly International Seminar led by Henry Kissinger at Harvard University.[1][2][3]. The fully paid six week stay had as one of its purposes to "establish better understanding among a select group of people who will be in top leadership roles in their countries in the years ahead".[4] Approximately half are from the field of the humanities and half in politics and economics.[5]
