Instead, modern political culture in the Dutch Low Countries began with a revolution and is rife with rivalries among political and ideological factions. De Rooy argues that because of its extremely open economy, the country is vulnerable to external political, cultural, and economic pressures, and Dutch politics is a balancing act between profiting from international developments and maintaining sovereignty. The sudden rise of populism and Euroscepticism at the turn of the millennium, then, indicated a loss of this balance. Shining new light on the political culture of the Netherlands, this book provides insights into the polder model and the principles of pillarization in Dutch society. The Dutch edition of this book, Ons stipje op de wereldkaart, was awarded the Prinsjesboekenprijs for the best book on Dutch national politics in 2014.Political cultureNetherlandsHistory19th centuryPolitical cultureNetherlandsHistory20th centuryNetherlandsPolitics and government19th centuryNetherlandsPolitics and government20th centuryNetherlandsSocial conditions19th centuryNetherlandsSocial conditions20th centuryNetherlands Political culture Impact of globalisation.Political cultureHistoryPolitical cultureHistory306.1Rooy P. de1944-1516288UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910787363003321A tiny spot on the earth3752670UNINA
