Gouverneur-Generaals Van Nederlands-Indië in Beeld
JIM VAN DER MEER MOHR Gouverneur-generaals van Nederlands-Indië in beeld In dit artikel worden de penningen beschreven die de afgelo- pen eeuwen zijn geproduceerd over de gouverneur-generaals van Nederlands-Indië. Maar liefs acht penningen zijn er geslagen over Bij het samenstellen van het overzicht heb ik de nu zo verguisde gouverneur-generaal (GG) voor de volledigheid een lijst gemaakt van alle Jan Pieterszoon Coen. In zijn tijd kreeg hij geen GG’s en daarin aangegeven met wie er penningen erepenning of eremedaille, maar wel zes in de in relatie gebracht kunnen worden. Het zijn vorige eeuw en al in 1893 werd er een penning uiteindelijk 24 van de 67 GG’s (niet meegeteld zijn uitgegeven ter gelegenheid van de onthulling van de luitenant-generaals uit de Engelse tijd), die in het standbeeld in Hoorn.

Hoe kan het beeld dat wij van iemand gen op te nemen waarin GG’s worden genoemd, hebben kantelen. Maar tegelijkertijd is het goed zoals overlijdenspenningen van echtgenotes en erbij stil te staan dat er in andere tijden anders penningen die ter gelegenheid van een andere naar personen en functionarissen werd gekeken. functie of gelegenheid dan het GG-schap zijn Ik wil hier geen oordeel uitspreken over het al dan geslagen, zoals die over Dirck Fock.

De Nadagen Van Herman Willem Daendels
JOS GABRIËLS De nadagen van Herman Willem Daendels De naam Daendels (1762-1818) is onlosmakelijk verbonden met de patriottentijd, met de beginjaren van de Bataafse Republiek en met Java, waar hij als gouverneur-generaal de beroemde Postweg liet aanleggen. Zijn latere jaren zijn minder bekend. Na terugkeer uit de Oost werd hij, in dienst van Oranje, koloniaal gouverneur van de slavenforten van West-Afrika. at Herman Willem Daendels carrière zou maken in het leger en hierin de hoogste posities zou bereiken, lag niet voor de hand toen hij op D21 oktober 1762 in het Gelderse stadje Hattem werd geboren. Als regenten- zoon studeerde hij, met het oog op de te bekleden magistraatsfuncties, rechten aan de hogeschool in Harderwijk. Na het behalen van de meestertitel vestigde hij zich in 1783 als advocaat in zijn geboorte- plaats, in afwachting van een zetel in het stadsbestuur. Maar het liep anders. In de strijd tus- sen de behoudende Oranjegezinden en hervormingsgezinde patriotten die in de jaren tachtig de Republiek der Verenigde Nederlanden verscheurde, koos Daendels vol overtuiging de zijde van de laatstge- noemden. De jonge jurist had in 1786 een leidende rol in het gewapend verzet van de Hattemse patriotten tegen de stadhou- derlijke troepen. Het jaar daarop vocht hij met andere Gelderse vrijwilligers bij de verdediging van Amsterdam tegen het Pruisische leger dat Oranje te hulp was ge- sneld. Na de inname van de stad vluchtte Daendels met vele andere patriotten naar Noord-Frankrijk, waar hij een handels- firma dreef. Toen na het uitbreken van de Franse Revo- lutie de nieuwe regering in Parijs aan een militaire opmars naar het noorden begon, Herman Willem Daendels als gouverneur-generaal van Oost-Indië (1807-1811). -

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.

Jonker Short Biography Alberto Feenstra (1982) studied Global History at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Previously he has been employed as research assistant at the Geldmuseum (Money Museum) in Utrecht. Currently he is employed as a PhD Candidate at the University of Amsterdam, where he works on the integration of financial markets within the Dutch Republic. This research examines the domestic capital market developments within the Dutch Republic. Whereas international relations have been studied more extensively the domestic ‘rooting’ of each location has remained under-researched. Yet, as the current crisis clearly showed, international capital markets are intertwined with domestic ones and they mutually influence each other. Hence, this research aims to improve our understanding of capital markets by taking into account their specific local context, such as political, legal and social institutions.

N the Changing Shape of Pro-Slavery Arguments in the Netherlands (1789- 1814)
3 n the changing shape of pro-slavery arguments in the Netherlands (1789- 1814) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/2236-463320161402 Pepjin Brandon Department of History, VU Amsterdam International Institute of Social History, Amsterdam, Netherlands [email protected] Abstract: One of the puzzling questions about the formal Dutch abolition of the slave- trade in 1814 is why a state that was so committed to maintaining slavery in its Empire did not put up any open resistance to the enforced closing of the trade that fed it. The explanations that historians have given so far for this paradox focus mainly on circumstances within the Netherlands, highlighting the pre-1800 decline of the role of Dutch traders in the African slave-trade, the absence of a popular abolitionist movement, and the all-overriding focus within elite-debates on the question of economic decline. This article argues that the (often partial) advanced made by abolitionism internationally did have a pronounced influence on the course of Dutch debates. This can be seen not only from the pronouncements by a small minority that advocated abolition, but also in the arguments produced by the proponents of a continuation of slavery. Careful examination of the three key debates about the question that took place in 1789-1791, 1797 and around 1818 can show how among dominant circles within the Dutch state a new ideology gradually took hold that combined verbal concessions to abolitionist arguments and a grinding acknowledgement of the inevitability of slave-trade abolition with a long-term perspective for prolonging slave-based colonial production in the West-Indies. -

The same Faculty funded two research trips abroad, one to the Netherlands in 2004 and another to Indonesia in 2005. Without these sources of funding this thesis would not have possible. In the Netherlands, I must thank Pim Westerkamp at the Museum Nusantara, Delft, for taking me on a tour through the collection and making archival materials available to me. Thanks also to Marie-Odette Scalliet at the University of Leiden, for directing me toward more of her research and for showing me some of the university library’s Southeast Asia collection. I also appreciate the generosity of Peter Boomgaard, of the KITLV in Leiden, for discussing aspects of my research with me. Thanks to the staff at the KIT Fotobureau in Amsterdam, who responded admirably to my vague request for ‘landscape’ photographs from the Netherlands Indies. -

After 1830 when the Netherlands and Belgium became separate states, NHM also provided risk and loan capital to industrial enterprises, especially in the textile industry in the Twente region of the Netherlands. In 1850 NHM began to finance companies operating plantations in the Dutch East Indies. NHM even owned a number of plantations itself. As part of this policy a branch was opened in Singapore in 1858. Its successor is now the oldest bank in Singapore. In the Dutch colony of Surinam NHM had from 1866 on an interest in cultivation companies, most famous of which was Mariënburg (1882).

1 STRATEGI PERTAHANAN NAPOLEON BONAPARTE DI JAWA (1810-1811)1 Djoko Marihandono ([email protected])2 1. Pendahuluan Sebagai wilayah yang pernah dikuasai oleh beberapa bangsa Eropa dan Asia, Wilayah bekas koloni di Hindia Timur3 merupakan lahan yang tidak akan habis untuk diteliti. Beberapa aspek dan dampak dari penguasaan wilayah itu, walaupun sudah banyak ditulis oleh para sejarawan, tetap menarik untuk dibahas manakala ditemukan sumber-sumber baru yang mendukung penelitian itu. Pemanfaatan sumber-sumber baru, khususnya yang bukan berasal dari historiografi atau arsip Belanda, akan memberikan pandangan dan arah yang baru bagi penulisan hostoriografinya. Sejak didirikan Republik Bataf berdasarkan Traktat Den Haag tahun 1795, Belanda yang menjadi negara boneka Prancis mulai bersikap kritis terhadap hal- hal yang menyangkut sistem ketatanegaraan, kewarganegaraan, keuangan negara, maupun pandangan terhadap wilayah koloninya. Hal ini terjadi sebagai akibat dari perkembangan politik di Eropa, khususnya pengaruh Revolusi Prancis dan Perang yang tak kunjung usai antara Prancis dan Inggris. Pembubaran yang disertai dengan pengambilalihan saham VOC dan pembayaran sahamnya kepada para pemiliknya merupakan penerapan salah satu prinsip dasar Revolusi Prancis yang mengakui dan memandang suci hak milik pribadi. Berdasarkan traktat itu pula, Republik Bataf, didukung dengan beaya sebesar 5,5 juta Gulden per tahun bantuan dari Prancis, berhasil memperkuat militernya dengan membentuk pasukan hingga mencapai 24.600 1 Makalah ini disajikan dalam Konferensi Nasional Sejarah yang diselenggarakan Oleh Masyarakat Sejarawan Indonesia tanggal 14—17 Nopember 2004 di Hotel Milenium Jakarta. 2 Pemakalah adalah pengajar di Program Studi Prancis, Departemen Sejarah, Fakultas Ilmu Pengetahuan Budaya Universitas Indonesia. 3 Istilah Hindia Timur Belanda (Indes Orientales Néerlandais) digunakan oleh Prancis untuk menyebut wilayah koloni Belanda di Asia.
