Title: Newcomers
First published: 1997
Description: "This book is an attempt to reconstruct the complete picture of the arrival of foreigners in the Netherlands from the middle of the sixteenth century onwards, and to describe how they acquired a place in Dutch society. This is done by combining and integrating the sociological approach with the historical one. The authors turn their attention not only to the foreigners themselves, and their place in society; the question of how their descendants have fared is of much greater importance in the long-term perspective chosen for this study."
