De Nacht van de Rechtsstaat
Eén van de belangrijkste bindende en verbindende factoren in de Nederlandse samenleving is de Rechtsstaat.

Erasmus Prize 2008: The New Cosmopolitan
We like to think of our modern world as a world where borders of all kinds can easily be crossed. We think of a modern society where economic and cultural exchange are seen as normal and where identities are not fixed along traditional lines of nationality, culture, religion, ethnical origin or residence. But there is a tension between universal claims and local responsibilities.
