520 "The Netherlands is home to one million citizens with
roots in the former colonies Indonesia, Suriname and the
Antilles. Entitlement to Dutch citizenship, pre-migration
acculturation in Dutch language and culture as well as a
strong rhetorical argument ('We are here because you were
there') were strong assets of the first generation. This
'postcolonial bonus' indeed facilitated their integration.
In the process, the initial distance to mainstream Dutch
culture diminished. Postwar Dutch society went through
serious transformations. Its once lily white population
now includes two million non-Western migrants and the past
decade witnessed heated debates about multiculturalism.
The most important debates about the postcolonial migrant
communities centeracknowledgmentgement and the inclusion
of colonialism and its legacies in the national memorial
culture. This resulted in state-sponsored gestures,
ranging from financial compensation to monuments. The
ensemble of such gestures reflect a guilt-ridden and
inconsistent attempt to 'do justice' to the colonial past
and to Dutch citizens with colonial roots. Postcolonial
Netherlands is the first scholarly monograph to address
these themes in an internationally comparative framework.
Upon its publication in the Netherlands (2010) the book
elicited much praise, but also serious objections to some
of the author's theses, such as his prediction about the
diminishing relevance of postcolonial roots"--Publisher's
description.
