Abstract. The prevalent Dutch prototype of 'specialist ministers' is critically examined. To this purpose a typology of ministerial expertise is proposed along with guidelines for measurement. Diachronic data concerning all Dutch ministers and all ministerial appointments covering the 1848–1986 period show that the specialist thesis should be amended. In general, political know‐how within Dutch cabinets has been underestimated, partly because of methodological inadequacies. One of four conceivable types of ministerial expertise proves to be predominant: the expert minister experienced in both departmental and political affairs.

In this article, the author uses marriage partner selection as an indicator for the openness of a society1 to study the level of intermarriage between migrants and natives (homogamy by geographical origin) in three Flemish cities in the period a1800-1913. The main question is whether societal transformations such as modernization and class formation lead to a decreased level of homogamy by geographical origin and how this is related to the specific characteristics of the selected cities.

Although the trust, as such, is not a legal concept in Dutch law and is difficult to fit into the current Dutch legal framework, there are certain Dutch legal concepts that share characteristics of a trust or that share the functionality of the trust. In this contribution, the subject matter of trusts in Dutch law is approached both from the perspective of trust characteristics as well as from the perspective of the functionality of the trust as a concept. This research is not only of interest for academic purposes, but also in the context of potential future legislation introducing the trust into Dutch law. We conclude that there is no fundamental objection against the introduction of the trust or new trust-like concepts in Dutch law. The introduction of a trust as a general concept would, however, require a substantial change of law.

"Ergebnisse empirischer Forschung zum Thema regierungspolitischer und
Budgetzyklen unterstützen eher die These, dass es Wahlzyklen in Bezug auf
politische Entscheidungen als in Bezug auf makroökonomische Effekte gibt.
Dennoch gibt es auch für Politikzyklen in Vor-Wahl-Perioden keine eindeutige
Bestätigung. In der vorliegenden Veröffentlichung belegen wir neuere
Argumente, die zeigen, dass die Begründung hierfür in der Missachtung des
politischen, ökonomischen und institutionellen Kontextes liegt, in dem Politiker
politische Entscheidungen treffen. Wir belegen insbesondere, dass der Grad
der politischen Zersplitterung der Regierung sowohl den Bedarf nach als auch
die Möglichkeit zu opportunistischen Politikzyklen beeinflusst. Eine Analyse von
Daten zur kommunalen Verschuldung von 296 flämischen Gemeinden liefert die
empirische Untermauerung für diese Behauptung." (Autorenreferat)

Law and Literature presents an authoritative, fresh and accessible new overview of the many ways in which law and literature interact. Written by a team of international experts, it provides a multi-focused history of literary studies' critical interest in ideas of law and justice. It examines the effects of law on writers and their work, ranging from classical tragedy to comics, and from East Africa to Elizabethan England. Over twenty chapters, contributors reveal the intricate and multivalent historical interactions between law and literature, both past and present, and trace the intellectual genesis of the concept of law in literary studies, focusing on major developments in the history of the interdisciplinary project of law and literature, as well as the changing ideas of law, and the cultural contests in which it has figured. Law and Literature will appeal to graduates and scholars working on the intersection between law and literature and in key related areas such as literature and human rights

Purpose – With political tensions surrounding migrants in post-9/11 Western societies, scholarship on second-generation immigrants has surged. This study explores the narratives of second-generation Iranian-Dutch women, a previously unstudied group, in relation to their positionality regarding identity and belonging. Methodology/Approach – By combining focus group discussions with in-depth individual interviews, we explored the narratives of 13 second-generation Iranian-Dutch women. Our focus was on their senses of belonging, cultural identities and lived experiences as they navigated between Dutch society and their parents' complicated heritage, against the backdrop of the post-9/11 world. Findings – Although these women are perfectly 'integrated', they are still frequently approached and labelled as 'foreigners' in society, which negatively impacts their sense of belonging in Dutch society. However, our participants navigated contradicting parental and societal expectations, finding new ways to belong and fashioning cultural identities in multiplicity. Originality/Value of the Paper – To our knowledge, the specific experiences of second-generation Iranian-Dutch migrants have received no scholarly attention. Our findings further the understanding on relevant second-generation themes such as the immigrant bargain, solidarity between different ethnic minority groups, and new ways of belonging.

The Dutch Risk and Responsibility programme (DRRP), which builds on the pioneering work that the BRC and RRAC carried out in Britain, is nearing completion. This article describes the background and course of the programme and offers a glimpse of the preliminary results. DRRP has created awareness of the 'risk regulation reflex' among a wide array of people and organisations. That term originated during the Day of Risk, a landmark conference that took place in The Hague marking the start of a fertile international network.
