| Contact this school | | Description | | Introduction to the Netherlands; Art, Language, Culture and the European Union in Amsterdam. This programme serves as an introduction for students who have an interest in Dutch language, culture, politics and art. We hope to unravel the mysteries behind the social and political climate that is unique to the Netherlands, evidenced by the liberal stances towards many social issues in Dutch society. We will consider the reasoning behind such social policies as legalized prostitution and drug laws; discuss trends in Dutch immigration, multiculturalism and assimilation and then examine how these issues are reflected in policy. These themes will be illuminated through lectures, meetings, and discussions with renowned Dutch academics, and coordinated site visits. In addition, we will look at the European Union through the eyes of the Netherlands; the issues concerning European unification, how European identity is formed and expressed, the economic, social and political consequences of unification and what the future may hold for European nationals.
