Abstract
In 2002, the Netherlands 'celebrated7 the establishment, exactly four centu ries before, of the Dutch Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie (VOC, East Indies Company). By pure coincidence, that same year a national monument in commemoration of the Atlantic slave trade and Dutch Caribbean slavery in which the Dutch West Indische Compagnie (WIC, West Indies Company) was a key player was inaugurated in Amsterdam. In both the celebration of the Dutch East Indies Company and the act of repentance regarding its West Indies counterpart, Queen Beatrix and the then Dutch Prime Minister Wim Kok were conspicuously present.1
