  • Danish Cold War Historiography
    SURVEY ARTICLE Danish Cold War Historiography ✣ Rasmus Mariager This article reviews the scholarly debate that has developed since the 1970s on Denmark and the Cold War. Over the past three decades, Danish Cold War historiography has reached a volume and standard that merits international attention. Until the 1970s, almost no archive-based research had been con- ducted on Denmark and the Cold War. Beginning in the late 1970s, however, historians and political scientists began to assess Danish Cold War history. By the time an encyclopedia on Denmark and the Cold War was published in 2011, it included some 400 entries written by 70 researchers, the majority of them established scholars.1 The expanding body of literature has shown that Danish Cold War pol- icy possessed characteristics that were generally applicable, particularly with regard to alliance policy. As a small frontline state that shared naval borders with East Germany and Poland, Denmark found itself in a difficult situation in relation to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) as well as the Soviet Union. With regard to NATO, Danish policymakers balanced policies of integration and screening. The Danish government had to assure the Soviet Union of Denmark’s and NATO’s peaceful intentions even as Denmark and NATO concurrently rearmed. The balancing act was not easily managed. A review of Danish Cold War historiography also has relevance for con- temporary developments within Danish politics and research. Over the past quarter century, Danish Cold War history has been remarkably politicized.2 The end of the Cold War has seen the successive publication of reports and white books on Danish Cold War history commissioned by the Dan- ish government.

  • How East Germany Operated in Scandinavian Countries 1958–1989
    Bertil Häggman: How East Germany Operated in Scandinavia 95 How East Germany Operated in Scandinavian Countries 1958–1989 Intelligence, Party Contacts, Schooling and Active Measures1 Bertil Häggman In September 1999 the East German Staatssicherheitsdienst (Stasi) or Ministerium für Staatssicherheit (Ministry for State Security, MfS) featured prominently in the headlines as former Stasi agents in Great Britain were exposed. The MfS had been created in 1950 and was not disbanded until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. It was responsible for both domestic surveillance and for foreign espionage. At the height of its power it employed 85,000 full-time officers as well as several hundred thousand informers, who assembled records on five million citizens – one third of the entire population. The files of the Stasi, if put in line, would cover more than 100 miles. According to Mark Almond, lecturer in modern history at Oxford University, the Stasi assessed every student or researcher from the West who spent time in East Germany.2 ‘Somebody who worked in a university for instance, might after all teach somebody who went into politics, went into the army or was a scientist who could be valuable, not just to the East German Stasi, but for all the former communist bloc secret services,’ so Almond. But in the strategy perfected by Markus Wolf, who headed the Hauptver- waltung Aufklärung (HV A), the foreign espionage branch, foreigners recruited for the Stasi were steered toward jobs in the heart of western governments or in the European Union or NATO.

  • Anti-Fascism in a Global Perspective
    ANTI-FASCISM IN A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE Transnational Networks, Exile Communities, and Radical Internationalism Edited by Kasper Braskén, Nigel Copsey and David Featherstone First published 2021 ISBN: 978-1-138-35218-6 (hbk) ISBN: 978-1-138-35219-3 (pbk) ISBN: 978-0-429-05835-6 (ebk) Chapter 5 ‘Make Scandinavia a bulwark against fascism!’: Hitler’s seizure of power and the transnational anti-fascist movement in the Nordic countries Kasper Braskén (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0) This OA chapter is funded by the Academy of Finland (project number 309624) 5 ‘MAKE SCANDINAVIA A BULWARK AGAINST FASCISM!’ Hitler’s seizure of power and the transnational anti-fascist movement in the Nordic countries Kasper Braskén On a global scale, Hitler’s seizure of power on 30 January 1933 provided urgent impetus for transnational anti-fascist conferences and rallies. One of the first Eur- opean, but almost completely overlooked major conferences was organised in Copenhagen in mid-April 1933 in the form of a Scandinavian Anti-Fascist Con- ference. This formed a transnational meeting point of European and especially Scandinavian workers and intellectuals that provided an important first response to developments in Germany. The chapter will use the Scandinavian conference as a prism to look back at anti-fascist activism in the Nordic countries during the preceding years, and to then follow its transformation after 1933. It will contribute to the global analysis of the transition period of communist-led anti-fascism from the sectarian class-against-class line to the inception of the popular front period in 1935. What were these largely overlooked, first anti-fascist articulations in Europe, and how were they connected to the rising transnational and global anti-fascist mobi- lisation coordinated in Paris and London? As we shall see, on the one hand Hitler’s seizure of power vitalised anti-fascism in Scandinavia but paradoxically, on the other, it further sharpened the communist critique of reformist social democracy and empowered social democratic anti-communism.

They all had longish names that wreak havoc on a dissertation with a 100,000 word limit. Luckily, the Soviet organizations excelled in the use of abbreviations. For pragmatic reasons I have expanded this use of abbreviations to include both international and Danish organizations and a full list of the many abbreviations utilized in the dissertation is found in appendix 1.Also due to the word limit the footnotes are full of abbreviations.

  • Decomposing Capitalism Socialists in Power, Iceland 1956-1958
    Háskólinn á Bifröst Decomposing Capitalism Socialists in power, Iceland 1956-1958 Jón Ólafsson Professor, Bifröst University [email protected] Ágrip Á kaldastríðsárunum, þegar smám saman dró úr áköfum stuðningi margra vinstri manna við Sovetríkin, einkenndist afstaða íslenskra sósíalista af vissri tvöfeldni. Leiðtogar flokksins, einkum formaður hans, Einar Olgeirsson, reyndu að halda flokknum vinveittum Sovétríkjunum, um leið og þeir reyndu að halda frið við og jafnvel vinna með vinstrimönnum sem höfðu misst alla trú á Sovétríkin. Tilraunir Einars birtast meðal annars í þeirri stefnu flokksins að senda unga flokksmenn til háskólanáms í Þýska alþýðulýðveldinu og Sovétríkjunum, í efnahagsstefnu flokksins og í hugmyndum Einars um að skapa norrænt bandalag vinstriflokka, sem átti að ná til bæði sovéthollra afla og þeirra sem sýndu Sovétríkjunum enga hollustu. Tilraunirnar náðu hámarki sínu í lok sjötta áratugarins, þegar Sósíalistaflokkurinn varð eini sovétholli flokkurinn til að taka þátt í ríkisstjórnarsamstarfi í NATO landi. Lykilorð: Sovétríkin, kommúnismi, Sameiningarflokkur alþýðu – Sósíalistaflokkurinn, kalda stríðið, íslensk stjórnmál Abstract During the Cold war years, when enthusiasm about the Soviet Union in leftist circles gradually faded, Icelandic socialists maintained a double position. The party leadership, especially the party chairman Einar Olgeirsson struggled to keep the party within the Soviet camp, while at the same time seeking to accommodate and even work with leftists who had abandoned all faith in the Soviet Union. His efforts can be seen in a policy to send young party members to the GDR and the USSR for University education, in economic policy and in ideas about creating a leftist partnership in the Nordic countries involving both pro- and anti-Soviet Socialist parties.

  • English Summary
    Danish Institute for International Studies DIIS Denmark During the Cold War National Security Policy and the International Environment 1945-1991 Highlights Available 30 June 30 10:00 am The comprehensive four-volume report is the result of a commission by the Nyrup Rasmussen and Fogh Rasmussen governments. According to the expanded Commission of August 23, 2002, the report’s purpose is not just to elucidate Denmark’s strategy concerning its security policy in response to the military threat to Denmark and other West European nations posed by the Soviet Union and its Warsaw pact allies, but also encompasses a thorough analysis of Denmark’s national security policy and the national security debate, with emphasis on the period leading up to the end of the Cold War. Efforts of the Warsaw Pact allies to influence Danish security policy, directly or indirectly through political organizations or the political parties, are brought forward as being of special interest to the Commission. The full contents of the (government’s) commission are stated in Chapter 1. I. Overview of Danish security policy during the Cold War 1. During the entire period from 1949-1991, Denmark was firmly anchored into NATO. Alliance membership played an overwhelming role in the shaping of Denmark’s national security policy in general and in Denmark’s relations with and attitude towards the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe in particular. The impact of NATO membership on Denmark’s foreign policy and security policy can hardly be overestimated. Denmark’s commitments to NATO by far outweighed the reservations in other areas, primarily the decision that Danish soil be free of nuclear weapons in peacetime.

  • Danish Reactions to German Occupation Brings a Full Overview of the Occupation to an English-Speaking Audience
    DANISH DANISH OR FIVE YEARS DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR, Denmark was TO REACTIONS F occupied by Germany. While the Danish reaction to this period of its history has been extensively discussed in Danish-language publications, it has not until now received a thorough treatment in English. Set in the context of modern Danish foreign relations, and tracing the country’s responses to successive crises and wars in the region, Danish Reactions to German Occupation brings a full overview of the occupation to an English-speaking audience. Holbraad carefully dissects the motivations and ideologies driving conduct during the occupation, and his authoritative coverage of the preceding century provides a crucial link to understanding the forces behind Danish GE foreign policy divisions. Analysing the conduct of a traumatized and strategically exposed R small state bordering on an aggressive great power, the book traces a MAN development from reluctant cooperation to active resistance. Holbraad CARSTEN CARSTEN goes on to survey and examine the subsequent, and not yet quite HOLBRAAD HOLBRAAD finished, debate among historians about this contested period. That O debate is between those still siding with the resistance and a majority CCUPATION more inclined to justify limited cooperation with the occupiers – and DANISH sometimes even condone various acts of collaboration. CARSTEN HOLBRAAD studied at the LSE with a Leverhulme undergraduate scholarship, and gained a DPhil at the University of Sussex in the field of European history of ideas. He has held REACTIONS research and teaching positions at the Institute of Advanced Studies of the ANU in Canberra, Carleton University and Queen’s University in Canada, El Collegio de Mexico and at LSE and UCL.
