Traditionally, the term boundary applies to the demarcation between a physical place and another physical place, most commonly associated with lines on a map As the essays in this volume demonstrate, however, a boundary can also function in a more broadly conceptual manner. A boundary becomes not an "imaginary line" but a tool for thinking about how to separate any two elements, whether ideas, events, etc., into categories by which they become comprehensible and distinct. The scholar contributors seek not simply to discern the boundaries, but, and perhaps more importantly, to understand the process of delination, and its consequences. With its maverick history and grass-root political traditions, the Netherlands provides an auspicious setting to examine the historical function of boundaries both real and imagined.

Benjamin J. Kaplan (B.A. Yale University 1981, Ph.D. Harvard University 1989) is Professor of Dutch History at University College London and has a joint appointment at the University of Amsterdam. His most recent book is Divided by Faith (Cambridge, Mass., 2007).

Marybeth Carlson is Associate Professor of History at the University of Dayton in Dayton, Ohio, where she specializes in European Social History. She is currently at work on a comparative study of eighteenth century revolutions.

Laura Cruz is an Associate Professor of History at Western Carolina University. She is the author of The Paradox of Prosperity (Oak Knoll, 2008) and several articles about economic culture in the seventeenth century Netherlands.
