Download or read book A No Go Area in Dutch History written by Jurrie Reiding and published by Europa Edizioni. This book was released on 2024-07-29 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jurrie Reiding studied at Leiden University, graduated in organic chemistry and biochemistry (cum laude), and obtained his PhD at the same university for a study in physical organic chemistry (radical chain processes). For many years, he gave lessons at pre-university schools and wrote textbooks. For some years he was in the employ of Utrecht University (chemistry didactics). Between 1987 and 1997 he lectured at universities in Nicaragua (environmental chemistry) and Mozambique (basic chemistry and bio-organic chemistry). From 1970 to 1977 he was on the board of the Institute for Political and Social Research (IPSO) in Amsterdam, affiliated with the Communist Party of the Netherlands. The book deals, essentially, with an untold history of Dutch collaboration during the German occupation (1940-1945). Principally, the ruling class and its political institutions must be held accountable for this collaboration. Immediately after the defeat of the Dutch army in May 1940, the Dutch Queen and the ministers went into exile in London, while the rest of the ministries, headed by the Secretaries-General, remained in The Hague. Officially, the Government-in-exile joined the Allied Forces, but at the same time it allowed the administration in The Hague to establish cordial relations with the occupier, in order to safeguard a proper place for the Netherlands in the “New Europe” in case of a German victory. This policy of ‘backing two horses’ had to be abandoned at the turning of the year 1942/1943, when the prospect of an Allied victory began to dawn. Unfortunately, at that time a substantial part of the Dutch Jewish citizens had already been deported to the German extermination camps, effectively supported by the Dutch administration in The Hague. The ‘London’ Government did not make any attempt to call its subordinates in The Hague to order and made itself an accomplice in genocide.
Download or read book Handling Societal Complexity written by Dorien DeTombe and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook for the Methodology of Societal Complexity describes the theoretical development of the field and lays the foundation for the application of the Compram Methodology in the context of addressing complex societal problems. As such, it offers a valuable resource for scientists, practitioners, politicians, master and PhD students in the fields of methodology, the social sciences, operational research, management and political science and for all others who are professionally involved in handling complex societal problems. These problems are the kind that fill the front page of quality newspapers; they have a huge impact on society, involve a variety of phenomena and actors, and are therefore difficult to handle. The structured Compram Methodology provides sound guidelines for handling real-life societal problems democratically, sustainably and transparently. Examples of the use of the Compram Methodology are provided in the domain of global safety with regard to healthcare, economics, climate change, terrorism, large city problems, large technological projects and floods. Complex societal problems must be treated as multi-disciplinary, multi-actor, multi-level and often as multi-continental issues. As such, they call for a multi-disciplinary and multi-actor approach that takes into account the emotional aspects of the problem and the problem handling process, including the micro, meso and macro level, which can be accomplished using the methods, models and tools from the field of the Methodology of Societal Complexity. The Compram Methodology improves the problem handling process and increases the quality of interventions and therefore the quality of life. Handling complex societal problems can reduce conflicts, save money and ultimately even save lives. Dorien J. DeTombe is an internationally recognized expert and founder of the Theory of the Methodology of Societal Complexity and the Compram Methodology.

Download or read book Drukwerk written by Karel Martens and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Karel Marten's work occupies a unique place in the present European art and design landscape. While working in the tradition of Dutch modernism, he maintains distance from the main developments of his time: from both the practices of routinized Modernism and the facile reactions against it. His work is personal and experimental, while at the same time publicly answerable. This book presents Martens graphic design oeuvre in reproductions of startling fidelity, and described in informal captions. Printed on uncoated paper and Chinese-bound, the book itself has a compelling tactile quality. For this long-awaited second edition, twenty-four pages have been added to cover Marten's most recent work.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Women and Gender in the Early Modern Low Countries, 1500-1750 brings together research on women and gender across the Low Countries, a culturally contiguous region that was split by the Eighty Years War into the Protestant Dutch Republic in the north and the Spanish-controlled, Catholic Hapsburg Netherlands in the south. The authors of this interdisciplinary volume highlight women's experiences of social class, as family members, before the law, and as authors, artists, and patrons, as well as the workings of gender in art and literature. In studies ranging from microhistories to surveys, the book reveals the Low Countries as a remarkable historical laboratory for its topic and points to the opportunities the region holds for future scholarly investigations"--
