Recenzje

"I've rarely read so rich and acute a study of a national culture, and the successive political metamorphoses within it, that puts it in so trenchant a comparative perspective. It's an education, methodologically and substantively, for any Anglophone reader."

Perry Anderson, Professor of History and Sociology at the University of California, USA.

"An exceptionally important contribution to a deeper understanding of Dutch politics."

Ernst Hirsch Ballin, Law Professor at Tilburg University, Special Professor of Human Rights at Amsterdam University, Dutch Minister of Justice (1989-1994, 2010-2016)

"An outstanding example of scientific practice."

Jan Willem Duyvendak, Rector of the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in the Humanities and Social Sciences (NIAS-KNAW) and Distinguished Research Professor of Sociology at the University of Amsterdam (UvA)

"The best book on the rise of the Dutch right in the last twenty years."

Bart Jan Spruyt, author of In Praise of Conservatism (2003), former director of the Edmund Burke Foundation.
