  • ABOUT MORTALITY DATA for DENMARK by Mila Andreev Last Updated by Gabriel Borges: January 22, 2016
    ABOUT MORTALITY DATA FOR DENMARK By Mila Andreev Last Updated by Gabriel Borges: January 22, 2016 GENERAL Overview of Danish History with Focus on Territorial Changes The earliest evidence of human habitation in Denmark Figure 1. The word “Denmark” on - mostly traces of hunters’ settlements - dates from King Gorm’s Small Runic Stone circa 12,500 BC. Organized farming communities started to appear circa 3,900 B.C. and regular towns came into existence circa 400-750 AD.http://danishhistory.denmark.dk/ Unification of Denmark began around 700 AD. and was mainly completed under Harald I Bluetooth (died circa 987), son of Gorm the Old (died circa 958/59). Gorm’s small runic stone in Jelling, Jutland—erected in memory of his wife—mentions the name of the country for the first time and is considered Denmark’s birth certificate. During the Viking Age (circa 800–1100 AD.), the Source: http://www.fortidensjelling.dk/ (accessed October 27, 2004) Danes played an important role in the frequent raids on Western Europe that eventually led to the conquest of England in the 11th century AD. For the period from 1018 to 1035, Denmark, England, and Norway were all ruled by King Canute (Knut) The Great. The southern part of Sweden was also under Danish rule until 1658. After the murder of Canute IV the Holy in 1086, the strong royal power, which was one of the secrets behind the victorious Viking raids, was significantly weakened. Waldemar IV (who reigned during the period1340–75) largely restored Danish power except for the humiliation he suffered from the Hanseatic League in the Treaty of Stralsund (1370).

In this article, I examine the ideology of the radical right in Finland by analysing the Aloof Election Manifesto, an election Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Lapland, Finland platform published by radical wing of the Finns Party for national parliament elections 2011. The analysis shows that the ideology challenges traditional notions of nationalism. It combines cultural nativism, secularism and economic neoliberalism to the fear of Islam and multiculturalism. Keywords Nationalism • immigration • radical right • multiculturalism • islamophobia Received 6 February 2015; Accepted 16 March 2016 In this article, I examine the ideology of the anti-immigrant wing of the indeed combines diverse ideas and beliefs from different ideological Finns Party, a populist and nationalist political party that represents traditions. The AM represents a particular case within neo-populism, one of the most visible changes on the Finnish political landscape in however, as it concentrates solely on opposing immigration from the recent years. For 16 years, the party was a small one, its support being Third World. Accordingly, one of the specific aims of my article is three to four percent1. This changed drastically in 2011, when the to show how different ideological features are used to support this party received 19.1 percent of the votes in the national parliamentary goal in the case of the AM.

  • Hal Koch, Grundtvig and the Rescue of the Danish Jews: a Case Study in the Democratic Mobilisation for Non-Violent Resistance
    Hal Koch, Grundtvig and the rescue of the Danish Jews: A case study in the democratic mobilisation for non-violent resistance By Steven Borish The Danish people’s successful cultural mobilisation for resistance against the Nazi Occupation (1940-1945) culminated in the rescue operation that took place in the autumn of 1943 when 7220 of the approximately 7800 Jews then in Denmark were successfully transported to safety in neutral Sweden. In events set in motion from the invasion of 9 April 1940, through the summer of that year and the following year, a key role was played by a living charis­ matic leader, Hal Koch, and, through him, by his memorable nineteenth-cen­ tury predecessor, N. F. S. Grundtvig. These remarkable events are properly to be contextualized not only in Danish history but also in the annals of non­ violent action as a path to the accomplishment of national goals. I. Grundtvig as the background figure who makes everything come together Statement of the problem On 9 April 1940 the Nazi German invasion of Denmark precipitated one of the deepest crises in the many centuries of Danish history. The late spring, summer and early autumn of 1940, saw the establishment of a Nazi Occupation following the short but overwhelming invasion. During these tense and difficult months many Danes from all walks of life began to meet, discuss and plan for cultural resistance.1 Yet the contributions of two men, one living and one dead, are of special importance in understanding the events of this critical period; together they lit a spark which successfully catalysed the first phase of a broad and popular mobilisation for cultural resistance.

Dissertation Advisor: Peter A. Hall Noam Gidron Many Ways to be Right: The Unbundling of European Mass Attitudes and Partisan Asymmetries across the Ideological Divide Abstract How do individuals with conflicting attitudes on different issues – those with conservative attitudes on some issues but progressive attitudes on other issues – form their partisan allegiances? In examining this question, my dissertation advances an argument about the asymmetry in European mass attitudes across the left-right divide. I argue that when individuals connect their political attitudes to left-right ideological labels they have many ways to be right – yet mostly one way to be left.

  • Towards the Kalmar Union
    S P E C I A L I Z E D A G E N C I E S TOWARDS THE KALMAR UNION Dear Delegates, Welcome to the 31st Annual North American Model United Nations 2016 at the University of Toronto! On behalf of all of the staff at NAMUN, we welcome you to the Specialized Agency branch of the conference. I, and the rest of the committee staff are thrilled to have you be a delegate in Scandinavia during the High Middle Ages, taking on this challenging yet fascinating topic on the futures of the three Scandinavian Kingdoms in a time of despair, poverty, dependence and competitiveness. This will truly be a new committee experience, as you must really delve into the history of these Kingdoms and figure out how to cooperate with each other without sending everyone into their demise. To begin, in the Towards the Kalmar Union Specialized Agency, delegates will represent influential characters from Denmark, Norway and Sweden, which include prominent knights, monarchs, nobles, and important religious figures who dominate the political, military and economic scenes of their respective Kingdoms. The impending issues that will be discussed at the meeting in Kalmar, Sweden include the future of the Danish and Norwegian crowns after the death of the sole heir to the thrones, Olaf II. Here, two distant relatives to Valdemar IV have a claim to the throne and delegates will need to decide who will succeed to the throne. The second order of business is to discuss the growing German presence in Sweden, especially in major economic cities.

    POWER, COMMUNICATION, AND POLITICS IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES POWER, COMMUNICATION, POWER, COMMUNICATION, AND POLITICS IN THE NORDIC COUNTRIES The Nordic countries are stable democracies with solid infrastructures for political dia- logue and negotiations. However, both the “Nordic model” and Nordic media systems are under pressure as the conditions for political communication change – not least due to weakened political parties and the widespread use of digital communication media. In this anthology, the similarities and differences in political communication across the Nordic countries are studied. Traditional corporatist mechanisms in the Nordic countries are increasingly challenged by professionals, such as lobbyists, a development that has consequences for the processes and forms of political communication. Populist polit- ical parties have increased their media presence and political influence, whereas the news media have lost readers, viewers, listeners, and advertisers. These developments influence societal power relations and restructure the ways in which political actors • Edited by: Eli Skogerbø, Øyvind Ihlen, Nete Nørgaard Kristensen, & Lars Nord • Edited by: Eli Skogerbø, Øyvind Ihlen, Nete Nørgaard communicate about political issues.
