* Armour or Backbone. Cultural Policy 1997‐2000 (Ministry of Education, Culture and
Science, 1996)
The State Secretary for Education, Culture and Science heeft in dit stuk zijn beleidsvisie op
cultuur kenbaar gemaakt aan de Tweede Kamer der Staten Generaal. Daarin schrijft hij ondermeer,
ʹAlongside cultural education, in the coming period selection will be a major theme in the
field of cultural heritage. Selection is a continuous and critical process of surveying and
appraising and, depending on the resultas preserving or putting aside. In the case of the
cultural heritage, naturally one must take account of the past and, given its constant increase,
of the future too ....... ʹ
(p. 49, Summary);
ʹMajor changes to the environment will radically alter the look off the Netherlands. If we do
not pay careful attention, the result could be a levelling down, metaphorically, of town and
country. So my aim is to strengthen the cultural contribution to physical planning. The link
with the past is an essential element in reshaping the Netherlands. The quality of the physical
environment is enhanced by the conservation and development of cultural and historical
values as embodied in views of towns and villages or valuable man‐made landscapes. The point
is to use existing qualities as a base for new developments which should preferably be creative
and inspiring, and where necessary restrictive....... I therefore propose to strengthen the existing
cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature Management and Fisheries and the
Ministry of Housing, Physical Planning and the Environment, for example by
drawing up a joint policy memorandumʹ
