Résumé : | We had to be tolerant to the different views and behaviours of the members of the other pillars, but it was tolerance by necessity, not tolerance by principle. It made us create an inclusive society: everybody whatever his norms, had to belong somewhere to the community, because if you rejected a pillar in terms of your behaviour, they could reject yours. The Second World War shocked this neatly organized Dutch society. The socialists became part of the government, and more important, the society secularized rapidly. The old pillars lost their importance in everyday life. The post-war generation refused to be crammed into these old structures. Catholics and protestants had to merge into Christian Democrats to keep their influence politically. Although most of the old structures disappeared, the relative tolerance remained and politics continued to be a matter of compromise. The Dutch never had the political structure as the U.K. and the U.S.A.: two parties that never really cooperate and compromise. So it was as a result of our primary contradiction that our values arose: the (always reluctant) tolerance and the ability to compromise; it was to hide the contradiction. This historic development is at the root of the development of the Dutch drug policy (Extract of the publication) |
