It explains how the Netherlands upheld and protected its non-belligerency during the First World War despite constant interference from its warring neighbours. Staying neutral was an artform that the Dutch managed to master through clever diplomacy, conscientious adherence to international laws, comprehensive mobilisation of its armed forces, regular patrols of its territorial boundaries, careful policing of its citizens, and a decisive measure of good fortune. The Art of Staying Neutral makes important contributions to the study of neutrality and the domestic history of the Netherlands in this seminal world event. 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$zNetherlands 606 $aNeutrality$zNetherlands$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aNetherlands$xHistory$yWilhelmina, 1898-1948 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918 615 0$aNeutrality$xHistory 676 $a940.533509492 700 $aAbbenhuis$b Maartje$0800841 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996207992403316 996 $aThe art of staying neutral$92146749 997 $aUNISA
