I was a participant in the ‘Urban Change and Urban Policy’ theme group during my stay at NIAS. My original plan to write a part of my book on urban-rural dichotomies in the Dutch Republic was transformed into the more feasible alternative to write some articles on the topic: one is already published, another will come out shortly hereafter.
