Sumario:During the Second World War the social-democratic publisher De Arbeiderspers [The Workers' Press] was transferred into National Socialist hands. The National Socialists wanted to transform the party press of the SDAP, the social democratic party of the Netherlands, into a National Socialist platform. The publisher, however, had a secure circle of socialist customers whom the new management did not want to deter. This article is a study, based on a reconstruction of the list of publications during the period '40 -'45, of how the National Socialist managers attempted to change the ideological foundation of De Arbeiderspers.
