Relations between the Netherlands government-in-exile and occupied Holland during World War II

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / The present study deals with the relations of the Netherlands "London" Government with the German-occupied territory during World War II.
The writer begins with the postulate that the London Government might be expected to provide in some measure for the maintenance of domestic order, for the welfare and safety of its citizens in the occupied territory; that it would be able to maintain communications with that territory; to serve as a focus for national unity; and to maintain its existence in order to assume authority at the time of liberation.
Owing to the nature of the german occupation, the London Government could neither directly engage in "remote" administration nor provide directly for the welfare and safety of its citizens. A single major exception appears in an effective railway strike ordered by the London Government [TRUNCATED]
