ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would sincerely like to thank all who were involved with, or contributed to the completion of this thesis. There were times when even I did not think that I would make it to the end, but here we are, and what a journey it has been. First and foremost, my gratitude goes out to my promotors and supervisors, prof. dr. Antal van den Bosch and prof. dr. Eric Postma. Antal, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to discover my passion and for your guidance, support and patience throughout. I fondly remember our inspiring meetings and lunch walks. Eric, even though your involvement was not from the start of my PhD, your efforts to get me to the finish line were indispensable. Thank you for all the discussions and pep talks. I would like to thank all the members of the committee for reading my thesis and providing me with their comments: prof. dr. Jaap van den Herik, prof. dr. Alexander Mehler, prof. dr. Marie-Francine Moens, and prof. dr. Lex Heerma van Voss. Jaap, thank you sincerely for all the invaluable advice you gave me in the years when we were both at TiCC. Alexander, thank you for coming over from Germany for my defense. I enjoyed meeting you in Leipzig and look forward to discussing my methods and analyses with you during and after the ceremony. Marie-Francine, thank you for reading my thesis and for coming to Tilburg for the ceremony. I look forward to meeting you. Lex, thank you for the discussions that we had at IISH when you were part of the HiTiME advisory board. They were a direct inspiration for the work presented in this thesis. Thank you also in this respect to the rest of the HiTiME advisory board: dr. Dennis Bos, dr. Andrea Scharnhorst, dr. Angelie Sens, and project leader dr. Marien van der Heijden. Marien, thank you for continued enthusiasm for the project and for always receiving me with open arms at IISH. My time at TiCC was a turbulent one for me, personally, but my colleagues there have always made me feel like part of the family, which is something I really needed and will never forget. Martin, I knew we would get along the first time I heard you comment on the spelling mistakes in someone else's presentation. Thank you for being a mentor and a friend and for always believing in me. I look forward to many years of working together on whatever we can come up with. Ko, Menno, Sander and Bart, thank you for the fun evenings we spent at the university's pub quiz. I will think of f00f whenever I drink an Erdinger. Menno and Tanja, thank you for hosting those wonderful "winter barbies" where we all drank and sang and played VI pinball. And thank you to Iris (Balemans!), Martha, Steve, Herman, Alain, Maarten, Paai, Nanne, Yevgen and Yu for making my workdays so much more enjoyable. Good friends are hard to come by, but I am happy to realize that I have found some real gems. Anke Dijkstra and Anouk Gaillard, my beautiful paranymphs, I love and admire you both to no end. Anke, thank you for always providing an alternative viewpoint and helping me to put things in perspective, even from half way around the world. You continue to inspire me and I am so proud to be your friend. Anouk, you are without a doubt the most relaxed person that I have ever met. Thank you for your never-ending patience and all the trips, concerts and afternoons just hanging out. I look forward to many more years of that, while watching your beautiful daughter Aurora growing up. Roy, you are my cousin, but really you are a brother from another mother. I am so grateful that you are always there to listen and understand and for all the fun that we have in between. I hope we never lose that. And last, but definitely not least, a big thank you to Tony, Mili, Michiel and Margot for all the conversations, drinks and good times that we shared over the years. I truly cherish your friendship.

Coverpicture: View on Delft, painted by Daniel Vosmaer, Erfgoed Delft. Delft’s history revisited Author: Martijn van Egdom Student id: 1174444 Email: [email protected] Abstract While at one side there is an ever increasing movement within cultural heritage organizations to offer public access to their collection-data using the Web, on the other the Semantic Web, fueled by ongoing research, is growing up to be a mature and successful addition to the Web. Nowadays, these two sides are join- ing forces, combining the large collections of mostly public data of the cultural heritage institutions with the revolutionary methods and techniques developed by the Semantic Web researchers. This thesis is the result of this rather symbiotic collaboration, providing mul- tiple contributions for both the side of the cultural heritage institutions as well as the side of the Semantic Web researchers. Of special note are: the descrip- tion of search techniques currently applied by cultural heritage organizations on their published data; the discussion of a generic method to transform legacy data to linked data, including a detailed analysis of each step of the process; and the development of a prototype of a faceted browser which utilizes the transformed data.

  • The Influence of Jan Tinbergen on Dutch Economic Policy
    De Economist https://doi.org/10.1007/s10645-019-09333-1 The Infuence of Jan Tinbergen on Dutch Economic Policy F. J. H. Don1 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract From the mid-1920s to the early 1960s, Jan Tinbergen was actively engaged in discussions about Dutch economic policy. He was the frst director of the Central Planning Bureau, from 1945 to 1955. It took quite some time and efort to fnd an efective role for this Bureau vis-à-vis the political decision makers in the REA, a subgroup of the Council of Ministers. Partly as a result of that, Tinbergen’s direct infuence on Dutch (macro)economic policy appears to have been rather small until 1950. In that year two new advisory bodies were established, the Social and Eco- nomic Council (SER) and the Central Economic Committee. Tinbergen was an infuential member of both, which efectively raised his impact on economic pol- icy. In the early ffties he played an important role in shaping the Dutch consen- sus economy. In addition, his indirect infuence has been substantial, as the methods and tools that he developed gained widespread acceptance in the Netherlands and in many other countries. Keywords Consensus economy · Macroeconomic policy · Planning · Policy advice · Tinbergen JEL Classifcation E600 · E610 · N140 The author is a former director of the CPB (1994–2006). He is grateful to Peter van den Berg, André de Jong, Kees van Paridon, Jarig van Sinderen and Bas ter Weel for their comments on earlier drafts. André de Jong also kindly granted access to several documents from his private archive, largely stemming from CPB sources.

  • Het Journalistieke Werk Van Pieter Jelles Troelstra 2011
    1 Piet Hagen Het journalistieke werk van Pieter Jelles Troelstra Inventaris bij een collectie kopieën in het Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis 2011 2 Toelichting bij de inventaris van ongeveer 1550 artikelen, bijna 200 verslagen van redevoeringen en 15 interviews van mr. P.J. Troelstra Werkdocument Dit overzicht is in eerste instantie gemaakt bij de voorbereiding van de in 2010 verschenen Troelstra- biografie, bestemd voor eigen gebruik. Het document is niet volledig en niet 100-procent betrouwbaar. Dat laatste kan ook moeilijk omdat niet van alle artikelen met zekerheid is vast te stellen of Troelstra de auteur is. Aanvullingen en correcties blijven gewenst. Troelstra als journalist Pieter Jelles Troelstra (1860-1930) was behalve Fries dichter, sociaal advocaat en sociaal-democratisch politicus ook journalist. Hij was hoofdredacteur van De Sneeker Courant, De Nieuwe Tijd, De Baanbreker, De Sociaaldemokraat en Het Volk en werkte mee aan tal van andere bladen. Ook publiceerde hij gedichten en verhalen in literaire tijdschriften. Voordat zijn politieke carrière begon, werkte hij mee aan Friese kranten en drie jaar lang redigeerde hij een eigen kwartaaltijdschrift, For hûs en hiem. Als partijleider van de Sociaal-Democratische Arbeiderspartij combineerde Troelstra politiek en journalistiek op een wijze die nu onmogelijk zou zijn, maar die in zijn dagen heel gebruikelijk was. Ook Abraham Kuyper, Ferdinand Domela Nieuwenhuis en Herman Schaepman waren op beide fronten actief. Hun kranten waren vooral opiniërende organen met een dubbele functie: voorlichting van de eigen achterban en polemiek met politieke tegenstanders. Troelstra’s eigen achterban was minder uniform dan men zou denken en zijn positie als hoofdredacteur was vaak omstreden.

He gained his PhD from London University's School of Oriental and African Studies, where his mentors included John Bastin and CD Cowan. He is an internationally recognised authority on the sugar industry of colonial Indonesia, with many publications to his name. Among the latest is Commodities and Colonialism: The Story of Big Sugar in Indonesia, 1880-1940, published by Brill in Leiden and Boston in 2013. He is currently working on a 'business biography' — based on scores of his newly discovered letters back home — of Gillian Maclaine, a young Scot who was active as a planter and merchant in colonial Java during the 1820s and 1830s.

  • Course Handout
    Using the Dutch Website Wiewaswie Fritz Juengling, PhD, AG® [email protected] Wiewaswie is a free, collective database drawn from numerous provincial, regional, and city archives in the Netherlands and some of its former territories; it includes information about 85 million persons from many types of records. The most important record types for beginning researchers include baptism, birth, marriage, death, and burial records. These records cover the period from the 17th to the 20th centuries. However, not all records from this period are included. A critical date for Dutch research is 1811, when civil registration was imposed on the Netherlands by the French. Before that time, church records were the primary source of records, although a few areas had already begun civil registration. Wiewaswie is available only in Dutch; there is no English interface. Therefore, researchers must know some Dutch terms. (See the wordlist at the end of this handout.) Dutch Names Dutch names are characterized by a wide variety of items that might be unfamiliar to some researchers. One of the most common is an additional element called a tussenvoegsel (or prefix). For example, in the name Dick Van Dyke, ”van” is the tussenvoegsel. When searching in Dutch websites, be aware that there is a separate search box for the tussenvoegsel in addition to the given name and surname search boxes. The Dutch also sometimes used a patronym, sometimes as a last name, such as in Jan Willems, and sometimes as a middle name, as in Jan Willems Zijlstra. (In these examples, Willems comes from Jan’s father’s name—Willem.) Keep in mind that not everyone had a tussenvoegsel or patronym.
