The Archives of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) and the Local Institutions in Batavia (Jakarta)
The VOC (Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie, the Dutch East India Company) was the largest of the early modern European trading companies operating in Asia. Its operations produced not only warehouses packed with spices, coffee, tea, textiles, porcelain and silk, but also shiploads of documents. Data on political, economic, cultural, religious, and social conditions spread over an enormous area circulated between the VOC establishments, the administrative centre of the trade in Batavia, now the city of Jakarta, and the Board of Directors in the Netherlands. The co-operation between the National Archives of Indonesia and the Netherlands resulted in this extensive catalogue of fifteen archives of VOC institutions in Jakarta. The VOC records are included in UNESCO ́s Memory of the World Register.

Formação e inserção profissional docente em contexto
As ideias presentes na gênese do livro vieram à tona no decorrer de um curso que envolveu as duas Universidades nas quais as pesquisadoras atuam nos programas de Pós-Graduação em Educação, com os seus respectivos grupos de pesquisa: a Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) e a Universidade de Antioquia. O curso fez parte dos projetos de internacionalização destas instituições e consolidou-se como um espaço de encontro de mentalidades motivadas com a reflexão sobre a formação das professoras e dos professores e a sua atuação profissional.

De Chinezenmoord

In oktober 1740 voltrok zich in Batavia een drama dat het hoofdkwartier van de VOC in Azië nooit meer te boven zou komen.
