The preliminary activities contain an inventory of the present situation and the possibilities in the sphere of agricultural nature and landscape management in the Pajottenland and the making of an area-oriented scenario concerning agricultural nature and landscape management, offering solutions for the bottlenecks found. The long term purpose is to create a more typical landscape and to involve the farmers in the development and maintenance of it.

The centre will provide 1 V L A A N D E R E N V L A A N D E R E N Flanders Leader+ Projects Survey information (through an interactive documentation centre and museum), as well as organize concerts, exhibitions, lectures and workshops.

The women that will be employed through this project, will receive a thorough training in order to increase their opportunities on the regular job market. Contact : Joris Samyn OCMW Gooik Ninoofsesteenweg 182 1755 Leerbeek Tel.: #32 2 532 03 24 [email protected] Paddenbroek The local association Paddenbroek is developing an educational centre dealing with fruit growing on a site in Gooik which used to be a typical example of a small-scale diversified family business in the Pajottenland until the early 1970’s. On this site, an entire landscape will be restored to its original state: a standard tree orchard will be laid out, as well as a vegetable garden, a herb garden, beehives, hawthorn hedges and a pond. The centre will also cooperate with training projects for handicapped and long-term unemployed persons.

The project’s target is to inform and sensitize the 2 V L A A N D E R E N V L A A N D E R E N Flanders Leader+ Projects Survey inhabitants in general and the agri- and horticulturists and care institutions in the region in particular. The project also wants to support the upcoming care farms.

The project also includes the construction and maintenance of the slow roads within the network, which will involve as many local people , farmers and volunteers as possible.

These paths are partially open to the public already. The aim is to maintain these routes - with for instance shoulders and hedges - in the future. This project offers the possibility of consigning this maintenance to the promoters of the Leader+ projects ‘clean team’ and ‘agricultural landscape management’. It is the stepping-stone towards a sustained maintenance of the slow roads.

Nevertheless, the Pajottenkrant is first and foremost the chronicle of the Leader+ group and projects.

Arrangements of these initiatives are worked out and the marketing is taken care of. After making an inventory of the farms and market gardens that have already taken initiatives with regard to experiencing the countryside, about three pilot projects will be developed, in which agri- and horticulturists will futher develop the supply of experiencing activities.

This project deals with several objectives of the regional development plan. Promotion in this case primarily means getting people familiar with the region. With this initiative Pajottenland+ also wants to support community development and nature conservation in the six municipalities. For example: one hundred benches. In 2005, ‘Pajottenland – tijdloze streek’ (‘Pajottenland – timeless region’) a project of Opbouwwerk Pajottenland (Community development Pajottenland) was included in the communication and promotion project. The aim is to install sundials in 24 villages of the six municipalities in order to promote education and tourism, possibly with a sundial route as a result.

The original book was published 25 years ago and is no longer available. The initiators are making an updated edition, including colour photographs. This book, a means of promotion for the region, can be used as a guide line for discovering the region.

  • Landslides in Belgium—Two Case Studies in the Flemish Ardennes and the Pays De 20 Herve
    Landslides in Belgium—Two Case Studies in the Flemish Ardennes and the Pays de 20 Herve Olivier Dewitte, Miet Van Den Eeckhaut, Jean Poesen and Alain Demoulin Abstract Most landslides in Belgium, and especially the largest features, do not occur in the Ardenne, where the relief energy and the climate conditions seem most favourable. They appear in regions located mainly north of them where the lithology consists primarily of unconsolidated material. They develop on slopes that are relatively smooth, and their magnitude is pretty large with regard to that context. An inventory of more than 300 pre-Holocene to recent landslides has been mapped. Twenty-seven percent of all inventoried landslides are shallow complex landslides that show signs of recent activity. The remaining landslides are deep-seated features and rotational earth slides dominate (n > 200). For such landslides, the average area is 3.9 ha, but affected areas vary from 0.2 to 40.4 ha. The exact age of the deep-seated landslides is unknown, but it is certain that during the last century no such landslides were initiated. Both climatic and seismic conditions during the Quaternary may have triggered landslides. The produced landslide inventory is a historical inventory containing landslides of different ages and triggering events. Currently, only new shallow landslides or reactivations within existing deep-seated landslides occur. The focus on the Hekkebrugstraat landslide in the Flemish Ardennes allows us to understand the recent dynamics of a large reactivated landslide. It shows the complexity of the interactions between natural and human-induced processes. The focus on the Pays the Herve allows for a deeper understanding of landslide mechanisms and the cause of their origin in natural environmental conditions.

I am grateful to its con- veners, Magda Teter and Rachel Greenblatt, for the invitation to attend, and to its benefactors for the graduate fellowship that allowed me to do so. My research on Masius was supported by the Belgian American Educational Foundation and by the National Endowment for the Humanities, and most of the article was written during a fellowship at the Oxford Centre for Hebrew and Jewish Studies.

  • 'Tout-À-La-Fois Cultivateurs Et Commerçans': Smallholder and the Industrious Revolution in Eighteenth-Century Brabant
    ‘Tout-à-la-fois cultivateurs et commerçans’: smallholder and the Industrious Revolution in eighteenth-century Brabant* smallholders and the industrious revolution in brabant by Johan Poukens Abstract Hitherto, pessimism about the material living standards of Belgian peasants during the eighteenth century has largely dominated the historiography. This article argues for a more positive outlook on the capacity of smallholders (handwerkers) to improve their standard of living. In the duchy of Brabant in the second half of the eighteenth century they could benefit from the rising grain prices by reserving part of their land for the cultivation of wheat for urban markets. The introduction of the potato was key to this process because it freed up land formerly reserved for growing food for household consumption. I argue that their market-oriented behaviour could be characterized as an Industrious Revolution because smallholders became consumers of urban luxury items such as colonial groceries. Innkeepers in particular played a pivotal role in the diffusion of these urban consumer practices throughout the countryside. Travellers who visited the duchy of Brabant (one of the principalities in the territory of present-day Belgium) in the second half of the eighteenth century were impressed by the density of its population. Dérival de Gomicourt, who visited the province in 1782, noticed that the villages were ‘more populated and better built’ (‘plus peuplés et mieux bâtis’) there than in his native France.1 One of his countrymen had already noticed in 1768 that the entire province had the appearance of ‘a single city’ (‘une seule et même ville’) because cities, towns and villages were so close together.2 The Brabantine urbanization rates were indeed amongst the highest in Europe.
