Een verzorgingsstaat zonder aanzuigende werking
A welfare state without a pull effect: the Netherlands 1890-2025This essay combines the history of labour migration to the Netherlands with the history of social security arrangements, focussing on old age pensions and unemployment benefits. Mutual insurances in these two areas had existed long before, but a political discussion arose only in the first decades of the twentieth century. These led to fledgling arrangements for old age pensions and …

Fair and Tender Data. The Fairness of Four Databases With Historical Individual Life Course Data Tested
Four databases with data on individual historical life courses are tested for FAIRness: the TRA, Umeå, HSN and IPUMS databases. All databases make their data much more Findable than they were in the original sources. But as databases, they are best findable if their name is a unique acronym, and if different sub-datasets all use that same acronym. Sensitive data have to be protected. Two databases make anonymous data sets or those only containing…

Provisions for the elderly in north-western Europe
In Early Modern north-western Europe a unique form of charitable foundation developed – almshouses. These were inhabited by elderly men and women, who had led honourable middle-class lives, but had become unable to support themselves. In towns that were rapidly growing through immigration, many elderly people were without income or family support. The masses of the working-class poor had to resort to outdoor relief and other survival strategies o…
Mutiny and Maritime Radicalism in the Age of Revolution
The essays collected in this volume demonstrate that during the age of revolution (1760s–1840s) most sectors of the maritime industries experienced higher levels of unrest than is usually recognized. Ranging across global contexts including the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans as well as the Caribbean, Andaman, and South China Seas, and exploring the actions of sailors, laborers, convicts, and slaves, this collection offers a fresh, sea-cente…

Charity in the Dutch Republic
This article surveys the literature on charity in the Dutch Republic, while also presenting the principles of our social science history approach to understanding charity in past societies. We specify a threefold theory on giving in the past, looking at characteristics of donors, characteristics of charitable causes, and at the giving structure at large. We discuss the research design we employ to test this theory on Dutch charity in the sixteent…
Whither Labour History? Histories of Labour
The change around 1960 was quite striking, though it had been anticipated by the launch of the Amsterdam Institute's International Review of Social History in 1956. The Feltrinelli Institute began to publish its Annali in 1958. In Austria, an association of labour historians, Verein fu r die Geschichte der Arbeiterbewegung, was born in 1959. In France, Le Mouvement Social [y] began its current career under Jean Maitron in 1960. [y] The SSLH was f…
Chapter Thirteen. Sailors, National And International Labour Markets And National Identity, 1600–1850
What makes this time-consuming but readily-available source remarkable for research into the questions discussed here are two types of data they contain. First, they combine data for each ship about origin, route and planned destination, tonnage and crew members with origins. Secondly, they contain the results of the interrogations by the Prize Courts of the most important three or four men on board mainly from the early eighteenth century onward…

Petitions in Social History
This book looks at petitions over the last five centuries to reconstruct the lives and opinions of 'humble' petitioners. Since Pharaonic times, governments have allowed their subjects to voice opinions in the form of petitions, which have demanded a favour or the redressment of an injustice. To be effective, a petition had to mention the request, usually a motivation and always the name or names of the petitioners. As a result, grievances of ordi…

Class and Other Identities
With the onset of a more conservative political climate in the 1980s, social and especially labour history saw a decline in the popularity that they had enjoyed throughout the 1960s and 1970s. This led to much debate on its future and function within the historical discipline as a whole. Some critics declared it dead altogether. Others have proposed a change of direction and a more or less exclusive focus on images and texts. The most constructiv…
