In contextualizing the Dutch funerary practice in its wider legal,
national and local governance framework, this book describes the
historical context for current practices, provides data on trends
in burial and cremation, and examines recent developments including
natural burial, increasing religious diversity and changing
national legislation. Chapters provide an overview of funerary
history and contemporary practice, alongside photographs, charts
and tables of key information. Topics explored include: the death
care industry; the Corpse Disposal Act; a typical funeral including
funeral costs and insurance; cemetery and crematorium provision;
and, the practices, technicalities and legalities of burial and
cremation. The book also analyses and illustrates the commemorative
practice of public mourning events related to World War II, the
Holocaust and the MH17 plane crash. This book provides a broad
frame of reference on funeral practices, making it a useful
resource for academics, policy makers and practitioners interested
in the historic, legal, technical and professional aspects of the
funerary industry.
