Condition: Fair. First Edition. De Preanger Rubber Maatschappij werd in 1909 in Amsterdam opgericht. De oprichters speelden in op de explosieve ontwikkeling die de rubbermarkt in die periode meemaakte en de gigantische stijging van de prijzen die er voor rubber werden betaald. Het bedrijf bezat in Nederlands-Indi? twee rubberplantages op West Java. De commerci?le exploitatie van rubberplantages was een nieuw fenomeen, het bedrijf moest in de praktijk uitvinden hoe dit het beste aangepakt kon worden. Dit pionieren gebeurde in Nederlands-Indi?, terwijl de ondernemers probeerden om dit vanuit Amsterdam op afstand aan te sturen en goed te laten verlopen.Mede door de grillige rubbermarkt maakte de onderneming veel ups en downs mee. Toch hield het bedrijf zich staande en maakte het vele jaren winst. De Tweede Wereldoorlog, de Japanse bezetting en het ontstaan van de Republiek Indonesi? luidden een definitieve verandering in. Maar het bedrijf ging door en bleef winst maken totdat het in 1957 door Indonesi? genationaliseerd werd. In 1987 werd het bedrijf uiteindelijk geliquideerd. In dit boek wordt de geschiedenis van dit bedrijf beschreven. De gang van zaken reflecteert het koloniale verleden van Nederland en de drastische veranderingen door de Tweede Wereldoorlog en de oprichting van de Republiek Indonesi? Deze bedrijfsbiografie is mogelijk exemplarisch voor veel bedrijven die in deze periode in Nederlands-Indi? actief waren.
Condition: Good. First Edition. Hellema was de zestig al voorbij toen hij in 1982 debuteerde met de verhalenbundel Langzame dans als verzoeningsrite. Het boek vond meteen gehoor bij de literaire fijnproevers. Hellema omcirkelt erin de periode uit zijn leven die door zijn intensiteit de belangrijkste moet heten: de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Wat de mensen in die periode elkaar aangedaan hebben is niet vatbaar voor vergiffenis, voor absolutie - maar misschien wel voor verzoening in de een of andere vorm. Zonder een dergelijk ritueel zullen de slachtoffers met een open wond blijven zitten. Ook in de acht boeken die Hellema daarna publiceerde komt zo'n ritueel van tijd tot tijd terug, vaak met verhevigde kracht. Ter gelegenheid van het zestigjarige slot van de verschrikkingen heeft hij een passende bloemlezing uit eigen werk samengesteld. Door zijn overlijden op 20 maart 2005 heeft hij de verschijning ervan niet meer meegemaakt.; Puntgaaf ex., schoon, ongebroken rug. Eerste druk, 2005.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. No other decade evokes such contradictory images as the 1970s: reform and emancipation on the one hand, crisis and malaise on the other. In The Global 1970s: Radicalism, Reform, and Crisis, Duco Hellema portrays the 1970s as a period of global transition.Across the world, the early and mid-1970s were still years of political mobilization with everything seemingly an object of public controversy and conflict, including economic development, education, and family matters. Social movements called for the reduction of social inequalities, for participation, and the emancipation of various groups at the same time as the rise of ambitious and reform-oriented governments. Ten years later, a different world was emerging with the call for state-controlled social and economic changes in decline and new economic policies centred on liberation and deregulation taking their place. This book examines a range of explanations for this radical transformation, highlighting how economic problems, such as the oil crisis, political battles and dramatic confrontations resulted in a free-market-oriented conservatism by the end of the period. Divided into nine broadly chronological chapters and taking a global approach that allows the reader to see the familiar themes of the decade examined on an international scale, The Global 1970s is essential reading for all students and scholars of twentieth-century global history. The Global 1970s: Radicalism, Reform, and Crisis portrays the 1970s as a period of global transition and examines the explanations for this radical transformation. Divided into nine broadly chronological chapters and taking a global approach, it is essential reading for all students and scholars of twentieth-century global history.
