Abstract: In recent years, Dutch identity politics has become a topic of increasing interest and scrutiny, as various political parties seek to represent and promote the interests of different identity groups. In this context, understanding the strategical role of political parties in shaping representation is crucial. This thesis explores how the strategy of Dutch political parties influence their ability to shape representation in identity politics. Using qualitative methods, including process-tracing and the analyses of relevant documents and media, this thesis examines the strategies employed by political parties in order to achieve political representation. Specifically, this thesis analyses the ways in which political parties impact the effectiveness of representation efforts, and identify key factors that contribute to successful political representation. The findings suggest that the approach of the political party is a critical factor in shaping representation in Dutch identity politics, and that an identity-based approach is necessary in order to effectively advocate for marginalised identity groups. This thesis contributes to a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics of Dutch identity politics and provides insights for policymakers, activists and scholars seeking to engage with the issue.
