Detailed report in Dutch of an investigation of a notorious case of elite racism in the Netherlands, spawned by the publication (1990) of a racist, anti-Muslim pamphlet, written under the pseudonym Mohamed Rasoel, in the wake of the Rushdie Affair. This book shows that famous Dutch poet and feared conservative columnist Gerrit Komrij might be involved in the writing of this pamphlet, probably intended as a practical joke to provoke Dutch antiracists. Under his own name Komrij had written several columns and other pieces whose topics and style are the same as the pamphlet, part of which is also written in a literary style. No publisher wanted to publish this book, which was finally produced and published by my own means under the Critics imprint. A year after publication, no more than 100 copies have been sold of this book. Despite the fact that this affair received widespread attention at the time, no Dutch newspaper published a review of the book. As has been shown in earlier studies of racism in the Netherlands, the Dutch elites adamantly refuse to accept a critical analysis of their racism.
