ROAD REPAIR AHEAD!
As completion nears on the New Fraser Hall, the contractor is preparing the roadways around the new building. Really the bulldozer is not after Watkins Hospital.
International relations stirs visiting Dutch sociologist
For a man who "landed in the library" quite by chance nearly 20 years ago, Dr. Bartholomew Landheer, now director of the library of the Peace Palace, The Hague, Netherlands, has gone a long way.
Dr. Landheer, currently a National Science Foundation senior visiting foreign scientist in the KU sociology department, is an authority on the sociology of international relations. He also is professor extraordinary at the University of Groningen, Netherlands.
"The future of international sociology is great," Dr. Landheer said. "Mankind forms one society; it creaks at the moment, but who knows what it will become. We deal with everything that is not covered in international politics.
"For instance, since the second World War, Europe has organized itself in some 18 areas of cooperative programs, which have been very successful," he continued.
Dedicated to his work at the Peace Palace Library, which is one of the largest law libraries in the world, Dr. Landheer will split his year at KU—returning to the Netherlands and his job for the spring semester and returning to Kansas next fall to complete the NSF appointment.
Although he has written some 50 books and articles on international relations, Dr. Landheer varies his writing with book reviewing for newspapers and writing fiction.
A Netherlands native, Dr. Landheer has spent much of his professional career in the United States. He first came in 1930 as a research fellow of the Rockefeller Foundation at the University of Chicago. He returned in 1938 as reference librarian for the Library of Congress, and in 1941 he became head librarian for the Netherlands information office in New York.
He was visiting professor of sociology at the University of Alabama in 1949 and returned home to assume his present position in 1952.
Dr. Landheer is teaching a seminar on the sociology of international relations at KU, will give campus lectures, and conduct research in his areas of interest.
To Dr. Landheer, a quiet man with twinkling eye, "Students are much the same everywhere. They even carry the same text books whether they are in Kansas or in the Netherlands, as English is becoming the international language.
