This thesis started as a research project on the backgrounds of political and social conflict in the late medieval city of Utrecht. I had grown a particular interest in the recurring instances of faction and party strife in this city as a corollary of my previous research into the Utrecht schism (1423-1449). The subject of conflict was also the overarching theme of the research project ‘Twilight Zone’ in which I took part from 2009 to 2012 as a PhD candidate. This project was financed by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO).

I never could have ended this project successfully without the guidance provided by my supervisors Peter Hoppenbrouwers and Bram van den Hoven van Genderen, and the support and inspiration I experienced from fellow researchers, colleagues and friends. In particular, I would like to thank the members of the project team, Matthijs Gerritsen, Aart Noordzij and Hans Mol, and other (former) colleagues at the Institute for History at Leiden University for the many motivating conversations and meetings we had. I would also like to thank the organisers and participants of workshops in Santander (2010), Leeds (2012) and Leiden (2013) for their instructive feedback and inspiring discussions. A special thanks should go to Justine Firnhaber-Baker, who invited me to a series of three workshops on medieval revolts in St. Andrews (2013-2015). These workshops offered me the rare chance to discuss the case of Utrecht with leading researchers from other

countries and historical contexts, which proved to be invaluable for the development of my ideas.

Without mentioning them all by name here, my friends and family were of vital importance to me during the prolonged period that I researched and wrote on this thesis. In the last stages, Petra Suripatty at Wageningen University & Research Library was of great help with my many Interlibrary Loan requests. Thank you!
