Published online by Cambridge University Press:  13 January 2010

Extract

It was with deep regret that the International Committee learned of the death of Mr. Carl J. Burckhardt on 3 March 1974. When he was appointed a member of the International Committee of the Red Cross in 1933, Carl Burckhardt tirelessly worked with Max Huber, another eminent member and a former President of the ICRC. From November 1939, he devoted himself fully to ICRC activities and gave all his time and energy during the whole of the Second World War to the manifold tasks that had to be carried out.
