In April 2023, Willem-Alexander will be king of the Netherlands for ten years. His jubilee takes place against the background of declining popularity figures for the king and the constitutional monarchy as a form of government.
In this Hague Affairs you will hear from Bart Funnekotter and Titia Ketelaar about that constitutional monarchy. We discuss the origins and predecessors of the current king. And we talk about Willem-Alexander’s tenth anniversary and how political the king’s role is.
