DE TOL VAN DE ROEM
Na het lezen van het biografische portret van Hans de Booij kwam mij als vanzelf het lied van Neerlands Hoop in gedachten: ‘dat is de tol van de roem / dat is de doem van de rol / het is de vlag op een strontschuit / het is de zoen van een drol’. Het is een tekst van hun programma Interieur uit 1975. De roem van Hans de Booij is van wat jaren later, namelijk in de zomer van 1983 staat zijn naam hoog in de hitparade. Hij is dan plotsklaps beroemd met de single ‘Annabel’. De song die voorgoed aan zijn naam verboden blijft; wie Hans de Booij zegt noemt in één adem Annabel en andersom. Het lijkt een ééndagsvlieg te zijn. Een onehitwonder. Hij probeert het kunstje nog wel over te doen, maar dat wil maar niet lukken. Maar, zoals met alle artiesten in de business, steekt er een groter verhaal achter deze muzikale onenightstand.
Schrijver Sander van Leeuwen is al op jonge leeftijd geïnteresseerd in de persoon Hans de Booij. Hoewel hij van een latere generatie is, werd hij door zijn oudere broers op het spoor van ‘Annabel’ gezet middels een thuis gebrande cd – door hen betiteld als ‘Diverse lekkere platen van Hans’. Sander was 12 en heeft de cd zorgvuldig bewaard. Dit plaatje is nu de aanleiding om met de zanger in gesprek te gaan. Hij heeft een krankzinnig leven geleid, Hans, meende Van Leeuwen. Dat had hij gepuurd uit interviews. Hij verwonderde zich erover dat er nog nooit een boek over De Booij was geschreven.

In diverse sessies ging Sander met Hans in gesprek. Het boek is een monoloog, waarbij de schrijver de zanger voortdurend in de juiste richting stuurt. Hij heeft de leiding, maar Hans is de baas. De muzikant ziet het boek als een opstart voor het herintreden in de muziekscene. Door al het doen en laten in zijn leven is hij min of meer aan lager wal geraakt. Is werkloos met de dreiging van de bijstand. Nieuwe songs worden maar niet uitgegeven. Optreden doet hij niet meer. Het boek verschijnt op het snijvlak van roem en vergetelheid. De Booij gaat op tour door kleine zalen met een prettig programma vol oude liedjes, waarin ‘Annabel’ niet zal ontbreken. Het idee back in business te zijn vrolijkt de van nature zwartgallige man op.
In de door Hans bedachte titel voor de uitgave “Het wordt niets zonder jou” doet hij een boekje open over zijn leven. De grote hoogten waar hij op staat, en de diepe dalen waarin hij vervolgens valt. Hoewel iedereen vriend met je wil zijn wanneer je beroemd bent, is het eenzaam aan de top. Randy Newman zong het al in 1972: ‘I've been around the world / Had my pick of any girl / You'd think I'd be happy, but I'm not / Everybody knows my name / But it's just a crazy game / Oh, it's lonely at the top’. De Booij voelt dat jaren later aan den lijve. Daarmee geeft het boek eigenlijk een triest verhaal. Van een man die koste wat kost in de muziek wil blijven, want zingen is zijn lust en leven. Maar zoveel heerlijkheden liggen op de loer, deze kunnen maar nauwelijks de moeiten bevredigen. Het leven van een muzikant die van de roem heeft geproefd, maar er nu nauwelijks meer aan mag ruiken.

Het biografische portret is uitgeschreven in korte hoofdstukken. Opgesplitst in een achttal delen, waardoor er chronologisch op jaren door het leven gelezen kan worden. De behapbare verhalen lezen lekker weg. Het is een communicatief boek. Dat is wat de zanger ook voorstaat. Dat hij er openhartig de wereld mee in kan gaan. Zijn wezen speelt hem parten, hij is autist en heeft daar last van maar het houdt hem ook op de been. Uit een gezin is hij enigst kind, maar was dat niet. De dood zit aan tafel, doordat kinderen voor hem te vroeg zijn overleden. Het tekent hem. En ook Hans zag in zijn jeugd de dood in de ogen, doordat hij bijna verdronk. En later nog omdat hij te veel dronk. Bij het afkicken had hij een bijna dood ervaring. En corona brengt hem dichter bij de afgrond.
‘De tol van de roem’ had het boek ook kunnen heten. Want voor en door de faam van Annabel heeft Hans veel moeten prijs geven ofwel daarvoor een hoge prijs betaald. Het leven liep stuk op die bekendheid. Relaties hielden geen stand, contacten verwaterden. Het verhaal van zijn leven doet hij ongeveinsd uit de doeken. Hoewel eerst nog wat schoorvoetend en aftastend is De Booij spraakzaam. Hij wil wel geen namen en toenamen in het boek, maar om het verhaal naar waarheid te vertellen komt hij daar later op terug. Dat is maar goed ook, want zo krijgt de lezer de waarheid eerlijk voorgeschoteld.

De tol die Hans de Booij voor zijn roem moest betalen rolt bijna van iedere pagina in het boek. Niet dat het verhaal daardoor een deprimerende indruk achterlaat, want tegen alle tegenslag in blijft De Booij altijd lachen. Hoewel het wel dikwijls een lach is als een boer die kiespijn heeft. En soms komt er een grimlach om zijn lippen, want er zijn vele ‘vrienden’ die gebruik en misbruik van hem hebben gemaakt. Maar de muzikant kijkt niet terug in wrok, het leven is gelopen zoals het is geleefd.
Het wordt niets zonder jou. Hans de Booij, een biografisch portret. Sander van Leeuwen. BOT uitgevers, 2023.

In January, the World Economic Forum released a report showing that fourteen hundred and ninety international experts rated “misinformation and disinformation” the leading global risk of the next two years, surpassing war, migration, and climatic catastrophe. A stack of new books echoes their concerns. In “Falsehoods Fly: Why Misinformation Spreads and How to Stop It” (Columbia), Paul Thagard, a philosopher at the University of Waterloo, writes that “misinformation is threatening medicine, science, politics, social justice, and international relations, affecting problems such as vaccine hesitancy, climate change denial, conspiracy theories, claims of racial inferiority, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine.” In “Foolproof: Why Misinformation Infects Our Minds and How to Build Immunity” (Norton), Sander van der Linden, a social-psychology professor at Cambridge, warns that “viruses of the mind” disseminated by false tweets and misleading headlines pose “serious threats to the integrity of elections and democracies worldwide.” Or, as the M.I.T. political scientist Adam J. Berinsky puts it in “Political Rumors: Why We Accept Misinformation and How to Fight It” (Princeton), “a democracy where falsehoods run rampant can only result in dysfunction.”
[...]
Their behavior demonstrates a paradox of belief. Action is supposed to follow belief, and yet beliefs, even fervently espoused ones, sometimes exist in their own cognitive cage, with little influence over behavior.
[...]
Staying with the Dorze people in southern Ethiopia, he noticed that they made assertions that they seemed both to believe and not to believe. People told him, for example, that “the leopard is a Christian animal who observes the fasts of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.” Nevertheless, the average Dorze man guarded his livestock on fast days just as much as on other days. “Not because he suspects some leopards of being bad Christians,” Sperber wrote, “but because he takes it as true both that leopards fast and that they are always dangerous.”
Sperber concluded that there are two kinds of beliefs. The first he has called “factual” beliefs. Factual beliefs—such as the belief that chairs exist and that leopards are dangerous—guide behavior and tolerate little inconsistency; you can’t believe that leopards do and do not eat livestock. The second category he has called “symbolic” beliefs. These beliefs might feel genuine, but they’re cordoned off from action and expectation. We are, in turn, much more accepting of inconsistency when it comes to symbolic beliefs; we can believe, say, that God is all-powerful and good while allowing for the existence of evil and suffering.
[...]
In a masterly new book, “Religion as Make-Believe” (Harvard), Neil Van Leeuwen, a philosopher at Georgia State University, returns to Sperber’s ideas with notable rigor. He analyzes beliefs with a taxonomist’s care, classifying different types and identifying the properties that distinguish them. He proposes that humans represent and use factual beliefs differently from symbolic beliefs, which he terms “credences.” Factual beliefs are for modelling reality and behaving optimally within it. Because of their function in guiding action, they exhibit features like “involuntariness” (you can’t decide to adopt them) and “evidential vulnerability” (they respond to evidence). Symbolic beliefs, meanwhile, largely serve social ends, not epistemic ones, so we can hold them even in the face of contradictory evidence.
One of Van Leeuwen’s insights is that people distinguish between different categories of belief in everyday speech. We say we “believe” symbolic ones but that we “think” factual ones are true.
[...]
Van Leeuwen and Mercier agree that many beliefs are not best interpreted as factual ones, although they lay out different reasons for why this might be. For Van Leeuwen, a major driver is group identity. Beliefs often function as badges: the stranger and more unsubstantiated the better. Religions, he notes, define membership on the basis of unverifiable or even unintelligible beliefs: that there is one God; that there is reincarnation; that this or that person was a prophet; that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are separate yet one. Mercier, in his work, has focussed more on justification. He says that we have intuitions—that vaccination is bad, for example, or that certain politicians can’t be trusted—and then collect stories that defend our positions. Still, both authors treat symbolic beliefs as socially strategic expressions.

EURO final referee Kuipers – 'A real milestone'

Björn Kuipers awaits his seventh European competition final – but don't assume that the Dutch referee is treating Sunday's UEFA EURO 2020 encounter between Italy and England at Wembley as simply one more assignment.The refereeing visiting card presented by Björn Kuipers, a 48-year-old supermarket owner from Oldenzaal in the eastern Netherlands, is as impressive as a match official could wish for. A UEFA Champions League final in 2014; two UEFA Europa League finals in 2013 and 2018; a UEFA Super Cup match in 2011; and European Under-21 and U17 finals in 2009 and 2006 respectively.By the way, don't forget his selection for the referee teams at EUROs 2012 and 2016 and the FIFA World Cups in 2014 and 2018. However, Kuipers says that this latest call-up to handle the biggest game in European national team football has left him as excited as ever."I was very emotional when I heard that I'd been given this final," he told UEFA.com. "I hoped to get the chance to referee a EURO final, and I've worked hard with my team to achieve this. It's really a milestone, a dream, an unbelievable moment and a big honour."Kuipers has enjoyed his EURO, taking charge of two group stage matches – Belgium's narrow win over Denmark in Copenhagen, and Spain's convincing success over Slovakia in Seville – as well as the tightly-fought Baku quarter-final between Denmark and Czech Republic. He also acted as fourth official in England's opening group stage victory over Croatia at Wembley. "The EURO has been fantastic," he reflects. "I think the level of refereeing has been very high. There's been a family feeling among us – referees, the UEFA staff, the fitness coaches. Everybody has helped to make this EURO a positive experience."Related Articles

In Kuipers' case, he was 16 when his father Jan set a new course for him. "I played football as a youngster, and I wasn't the nicest of guys to the referees," he recalls. "My father was a referee – he told me: 'If you know it all better, then take a refereeing course and do it yourself. So I did, and it started from there. I'm eternally grateful for what he said to me."A new career pathway lay ahead – but Kuipers admits that he never began refereeing with the objective of aiming for the stars. "I realised when I started that I really liked refereeing, but initially I never had goals. It was a case of step by step, wait and see. What helped me was that I had the right people to guide me along the way." He eventually earned his international badge in 2006. "I began to change my way of thinking and really set myself clear targets when I was fortunate enough to be promoted to the elite level."Since those days, Kuipers has never looked back. As one of Europe's most respected match officials, he has learned to deal with the myriad highs and lows of a referee's life. "You need to be mentally and physically fit, and enjoy what you do, otherwise there's no point in being a referee," he says. "The ability to manage people is vitally important, as well as having an understanding of football. If you can win the trust of players and spectators, it makes your job a lot easier."Kuipers will be accompanied at Sunday's final by a tried and trusted team – Dutch assistants Sander van Roekel and Erwin Zeinstra, and Carlos Del Cerro Grande (Spain) as fourth official. Bastian Dankert (Germany) takes on the video assistant referee (VAR) role alongside Pol van Boekel (Netherlands), Christian Gittelmann and Marco Fritz (both Germany). Juan Carlos Yuste Jiménez (Spain) completes the line-up as assistant reserve referee.After being based with the rest of the EURO referees in Istanbul since the start of the tournament, their arrival in London earlier this week has given Kuipers and his team the opportunity to acclimatise as the competition reaches its climax. "We watched the two semi-finals, and the atmosphere at Wembley was incredible – so we're really looking forward to the final now," he says. "It's been good to have this additional time to focus on the match."

Björn Kuipers – an international referee since 2006 – will take charge of his seventh European competition final on Sunday / Stuart Franklin/Getty ImagesWhen will the moment arrive when Kuipers is fully aware that a huge occasion lies ahead? "First of all, when we go out and warm up on the pitch, and the crowd is starting to grow and everyone is excited," he says. "But I think I'll really realise when I lead the teams out, past the trophy, and line up for the national anthems."At that moment, I'll think about all the people who have helped me get to here, and my family in particular." Kuipers' pride at that instant will be shared by his biggest supporters, wife Marlies and his two children, who will be at Wembley for the final. "I can't emphasise enough how important they've been to me," he says. "They've been there for me and supported me not only when things have been going well, but also when I've had difficult times.”With Kuipers following in father Jan's footsteps as a referee, the job certainly runs in the family – and Marlies herself was already in a position to know about a referee's life with some clarity. Her grandfather Andries van Leeuwen was a top match official, who took charge of the 1963 European Cup Winners' Cup final between Tottenham Hotspur and Atlético de Madrid in Rotterdam. "I heard a lot about him," says Kuipers. "He lived 100 per cent for refereeing."Once he blows the whistle to get the action underway on Wembley’s lush turf, the thoughts of Kuipers and his team will immediately turn to producing a performance to match the occasion. “Full focus, full concentration from the first whistle to the last,” he explains. “That’s hugely important – you can have a good match for 90 minutes and take all the right decisions, and then something happens right at the very end that can spoil all of your good work. Teamwork will be crucial, and I feel reassured to have team-mates that I can trust totally with me.”At this stage on his refereeing journey, with such a complete list of big matches on his CV, is there anything left for Kuipers to achieve? “Let me think about that after the EURO,” he says, laughing as he reflects on a refereeing life that has been well worth living. “We’ve seen it all – we’ve travelled across Europe and around the world, we’ve refereed great matches with great players and great coaches. It’s a dream to be a referee – it’s a dream to be refereeing a EURO final. I’ll look after the EURO about what comes next as far as refereeing is concerned.”In addition to his hectic business life, Kuipers – a keen tennis player and mountain biker in his spare time – definitely hopes to be able to give back to refereeing by imparting his vast knowledge not only to younger referees, but also to football-mad youngsters who may consider that being a referee is a better prospect than playing. “If anyone wants my help, I’m there to give my knowledge to them. And if a young girl or boy ever asks for advice about how to become a referee, I’d certainly encourage them to have a try.”“The job of a referee is a fantastic one. You learn to take decisions, you develop, it makes you a better person. If you want to be a referee, take that chance…” Read the full article

Dutch Municipality launches database and marketplace for circular materials

This autumn, the municipality of Apeldoorn[1] will launch a link between its database with all existing building materials in public space and a digital marketplace. This makes it possible to trade released materials so that they can be reused elsewhere. Apeldoorn is the first municipality in the Netherlands to take steps towards the circular economy at local and regional level in this way.
Municipalities have to replace hardening in the public space every so often, such as the pavement of the Griffiersveld district in Apeldoorn. In the traditional process, the old street is demolished and taken to the waste processor, after which a contractor lays a new street in it. This should be possible in a more circular way, thought Sander Lubberhuizen, project leader circular economy of the municipality of Apeldoorn. Financially supported by an innovation subsidy from the Dutch Ministry of the Interior, he therefore innovated by making up a raw materials accounting scheme for all materials in public space and connected it to a trading platform.
Circular building
“It works like this”, Lubberhuizen begins, who tells his story digitally. “Special cars – comparable to Google cars – scan the public space using different techniques. In this way they collect information about the material over and alongside which they drive, such as the type of stone, thickness of the stone layer or height of the sidewalk and color. This information is combined with data from the municipal basic information (GBI).” The GBI is a database available to every municipality and where information can be found about purchased materials. “We then link these data to an online marketplace[2]. Basically a kind of dating site for materials. Based on the offer on the trading platform, the municipality is looking for a match with another party, such as a municipality or contractor, who can make use of these secondary materials. This is how we facilitate circular construction.”
Human problem
Lubberhuizen was assisted in the development by Koos Service Design[3], a design agency specialized in process management. Service design is a working method that is based on the needs of the user, says Joost van Leeuwen of the company. “In this project, it means that we have sat down with all stakeholders, such as the municipality, builders, designers and planners. We clearly and visually map out mutual transactions and discuss what parties need from each other.”
According to Van Leeuwen, the major challenge for greening lies precisely in these interactions. “The transition to a sustainable society is not a technological problem, it is a people’s problem. By putting the right people together and exploring solutions together, one can change a system.”
Examplary role of the authorities
According to Lubberhuizen, municipalities and other governments should be leaders in these kinds of system changes. “Municipalities can bear this risk, businesses less so,” says Lubberhuizen. “If we, as a launching customer, stick out our neck and show that it works, other parties will also join in.”
After a successful test phase, Lubberhuizen believes that the first match on the marketplace will be made at the end of this year. The municipality of Ede is also involved in this project. Lubberhuizen: “I expect that in the future we will increasingly see the value of the materials we own as a municipality in public space. A municipality has already invested in public space, so it would be a shame to give that up. Combined with the GBI's raw materials accounting and the marketplace, parties in new tenders can take into account materials that are available or will soon be available.”
Lubberhuizen also hopes that municipalities will exchange more materials with each other. “There are 350 municipalities in the Netherlands, all with people like me and we don't even know each other. With this application, there is no need to reinvent the wheel over and over again. And I think that is important if we want to close chains as quickly as possible on the way to a circular economy.”
