Mark T. Hooker is a Visiting Scholar at Indiana University. He is the author of ‘The Military Uses of Literature’ (Praeger 1996) and ‘Customs and Etiquette in Holland’ (1997). His translation, with annotations, of ‘The Politically Correct Netherlands Since the Sixties’ by Herman Vuijsje is forthcoming. He served as a linguist and foreign area specialist as a uniformed member of the U.S. Armed Forces and also as a Department of Defense civilian.
Holland was once a superpower upon whose empire the sun never set. Today it is on the leading edge of social change. This history of Holland, from its earliest beginnings to the present day, provides the most up-to-date survey of modern Dutch history, including the current Dutch approach to a number of social issues, such as the welfare state, the environment, socialized medicine, and the role of the military in the post-Cold War world. Containing a wealth of current information and statistics, this work will help the reader to understand the Dutch both within the historical context in which Holland exists and as world leaders in social change as we approach the twenty-first century.
