Willem Visser 't Hooft

Willem Adolf Visser ’t Hooft (1966)

Willem Adolph Visser 't Hooft (Haarlem, 20 settembre 1900 – Ginevra, 4 luglio 1985) è stato un partigiano e teologo olandese.

Biografia

Visser 't Hooft nacque a Haarlem, nei Paesi Bassi e nei suoi primi anni di adolescenza, fu coinvolto nel movimento cristiano degli studenti olandesi a livello internazionale. Nel 1925, mentre fece il suo primo viaggio negli Stati Uniti con John R. Mott, si interessò al movimento "social gospel". Scrisse la sua tesi di dottorato su di esso presso l'Università di Leiden nel 1928. Dall'ottobre 1929 (volume 22, numero 4) fino al terzo trimestre del 1939 (volume 32, numero 3), fu direttore di The Student World, una rivista trimestrale pubblicata a Ginevra dalla World Christian Student Federation. Il motto della rivista era Ut Omnes Unum Sint.

Visser 't Hooft era attivo nella resistenza contro il nazismo. Il suo appartamento a Ginevra, in Svizzera, divenne il luogo d'incontro per i membri della Resistenza tedesca contro il Terzo Reich tra marzo e aprile 1944. Hilda Monte e Hannah Bertholet furono tra le 15 e 16 persone che, provenendo da tutta l'Europa, qui si incontrarono per discutere della resistenza internazionale contro il Nazismo.

Nel 1938, Visser 't Hooft fu nominato primo segretario generale del WCC, anche se all'epoca teneva solo 38 anni. Scrisse 15 libri in diverse lingue e numerosi articoli e circa 50.000 lettere.
