Without a Belgian web archive there is a significant risk that essential born digital resources for historians will be lost forever. This chapter traces the history of the web in Belgium, from the establishment of the. be domain in 1988 to the present day, situating it within the Belgian historical, political, and legal context. PROMISE, a research project, which investigates the feasibility of developing a sustainable web archiving service for Belgium, is introduced. The results of two web archive pilots are presented and the importance of research use of the future Belgian web archive is stressed.","PeriodicalId":285640,"journal":{"name":"The Historical Web and Digital Humanities","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128503832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Webster","doi":"10.4324/9781315231662-8","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4324/9781315231662-8","url":null,"abstract":"National web spheres include content that resides within geographically nonspecific domains, such as .com or .org. However, little is known as to why this content ‘lives’ outside the ccTLD. The island of Ireland is formed of two political units with two ccTLDs (.uk and .ie). This chapter takes the case of the Christian churches in Ireland as a case study in the mapping between the nation and the ccTLD. It investigates the degree to which the differing historic attitudes of Protestant and Roman Catholic churches to national identity are reflected in patterns of domain registration. Based on data for 2015 and 2016, Roman Catholic congregations were more likely to register domains outside the .uk ccTLD. However, there was no corresponding prioritisation of registration within .uk for the several Protestant denominations. That organisations that might be expected to register their web estate within a particular national domain do not in fact do so suggests that the ‘gravitational pull’ of the ccTLD is weak. The chapter also shows that the networks of links between the individual Baptist church congregations on both sides of the border between 1996 and 2010 was both tightly focussed around the churches in Northern Ireland, and also highly localised within one part of the province, whilst being spread across four TLDs. While offline patterns of numeric strength and geographic concentration are reflected online, they map only very loosely onto the ccTLD. Understanding the limitations of the ccTLD as a proxy for the national web: lessons from cross-border religion in the northern Irish web sphere Peter Webster The writing of modern history has often depended on a stable notion of the state. Even if studies of nationalism have dealt subtly with the means by which people understand their relationships with both ethnic nations and the state as a political and legal entity, it has at least been possible to circumscribe the latter without significant difficulty. The world order that has persisted since the early modern period presupposes that persons have some form of citizenship, a legal identification with a state; even if they may hold more than one, each citizenship may stand on its own without legal ambiguity. Another of the fundamental assumptions of that system is that geographical space (at least on land) can usually be clearly divided into territorial units under unified and monopolistic systems of law and government. To elaborate an insight of Max Weber, in order for a state successfully to enforce a monopoly on the use of violence, it must first know where its boundaries are. The high-water mark of national schools of historical writing was perhaps in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as compendia of national biographies were created alongside monumental editions of primary sources (examples include the Dictionary of National Biography in the UK, or the Monumenta Germaniae Historica in Germany).
