The Annals of the War in the Low Countries is one of Hugo Grotius' lesser-known works. Grotius expresses a wayward view of the early revolt, which he presents not as a united battle for the true faith and the ancient liberties of the land but as a protracted and painful struggle, not only with the great power of Spain, but also with discord, selfishness and religious fanaticism among the Dutch. To convey this complex and controversial vision of the foundational years of the Dutch Republic, Gr...

De wet leren is een taal leren. Europees recht leren is meerdere talen tegelijk leren. Europees recht leren in een Nederlandstalig onderwijsprogramma met Engelstalige docenten en studieboeken is een uitdaging op zich: Europees recht wordt in het Engels bestudeerd en moet in het Nederlands worden toegepast.

Deze tweetalige verzameling bevat naast Europese verdragen ook de belangrijkste wetgeving en is daarom ideaal om deze uitdaging aan te gaan. Dit boek presenteert elk artikel in beide talen,...

Indonesia declared its independence on 17 August 1945, two days after the Japanese capitulation that marked the end of World War II in Asia. Refusing to recognize Indonesian independence, the Netherlands attempted to gain control over the decolonization process by force, leading to four years of arduous negotiations and bitter warfare.

Despite many potential user groups, only some of them appeared actually to use NCORS data. In order to investigate and recommend...

The DC-3 revolutionized air travel to an extent only surpassed by the advent of the jet aircraft. What made the DC-3 particularly special was the degree of safety it provided. Thanks to the DC-3 and its reputation for strength and reliability, in 1937 air travel insurance finally became available for the general public.

Eight decades after its first debut, the DC-3 is still flying, a tribute to the solidity of its brilliant design, and it will likely continue to fly for a long time.

Having connections to (powerful) political parties and its members, opens doors to businesses and allows them to flourish beyond our imagination. This book explores the value of politics on businesses in terms of access to financial means and ultimately business value.
