Paperback. Condition: New. A Metropolitan History of the Dutch Empire: Popular Imperialism in The Netherlands, 1850-1940 examines popular imperial culture in the Netherlands around the turn of the twentieth century. In various and sometimes unexpected places in civil society the empire played a prominent role and was key in mobilizing people for causes that were directly and indirectly related to the Dutch overseas colonies. At the same time, however, the empire was ostensibly absent from people's minds. Except for some jingoist outbursts during the Aceh War and the Boer War, indifference was the main attitude with which imperial affairs were greeted. How could the empire simultaneously be present and absent in metropolitan life? Drawing upon the works of scholars from fields ranging from postcolonial studies to Habsburg imperialism, the author argues that indifference to empire was not an anomaly to the idea of an all-permeating imperial culture, but rather the logical consequence of an imperial ideology that rendered metropole and colony firmly separated entities. The different groups and individuals that advocated imperial or anti-imperial causes - such as missionaries, former colonials, Indonesian students, and boy scouts - hardly ever related to each other explicitly and had their own distinctive modes of expression, but were nonetheless part of what the author calls a 'fragmented empire' and shared the common thread of Dutch imperial ideology. This suggests we should not mistake colonial culture's metropolitan invisibility for a lack of strength.…

Zutphen, Walburg Pers, 2021. 328 pp. Col. ills. Softcover. Net als andere bekende Hollandse bestuurs- en handelscentra was ook de stad Utrecht nauw betrokken bij de slavenhandel en slavernij. Maar hoe zag die verwikkeling - in de schaduw van steden als Amsterdam en Rotterdam - er eigenlijk uit? Hoe profiteerde Utrecht van de slavenhandel en de producten die uit slavenarbeid voortkwamen? Welke invloed had de bovenlaag van stedelijke bestuurders en investeerders op de levens van de vele tot slaaf gemaakten in Oost en West? En hoe zat het met de kerk? Waarom werd Utrecht een centrum van abolitionisme? Welke sporen van het koloniale verleden draagt de stad nu nog? En hoe gaan Utrechters vandaag de dag met de geschiedenis van slavernij om? In korte essays laten de schrijvers van 'Slavernij en de stad Utrecht' vanuit steeds een ander perspectief hun licht schijnen op de Utrechtse betrokkenheid bij het mondiale slavernijverleden.
