- Title
Amsab-ISG en de heemkundige onderzoeker. Een kwestie van vraag en aanbod?
- Authors
Vandenbroucke, Martijn
- Abstract
The article discusses the nature of folklore, origin, and local history (heemkunde) as a historical, demographic, and/or sociological phenomenon. In 2008 the Amsab-ISG (Institute for Social History) in Belgium recorded out of 200 visitors to its library only one who was interested in genealogical research. The author questions if this lack of interest is political in nature because visitors wish to avoid discoveries of the past concerning their families.
