As a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, many countries have implemented restrictions on entry and exit, visa and work permit issuance, closed borders, tightened quarantine rules and taken other measures in an attempt to slow the spread of COVID-19. These restrictions may affect international business travel and assignment plans. Some countries have also introduced immigration concessions to facilitate applications; for example, moving to online applications, accepting soft copies of documents, granting automatic extension approval and more. However, these concessions must be reviewed country by country as the requirement to make a notification or other applications is often still in place. CIBTvisas and Newland Chase are here to help you. This comprehensive guide gathers together the knowledge and data we have on entry restrictions, immigration restrictions (office closures, visa suspensions, etc.) and immigration concessions, worldwide. We also invite you to attend or to download and listen to our webinars, which address changes both globally, regionally and country by country. We are glad to offer you follow up white papers, discussion guides and FAQ sheets to support you with the conversations you need to have with your colleagues, employees and clients. We can do more, too. Contact us today for a free 30-minute consultation on your specific needs and requirements. We are glad to help.

    4 Denmark Alexandra Andhov, Jakob Wested and Rasmus Kristian Feldthusen 4.1 Introduction Before we start to describe and analyse the legal and economic back- ground for start-up formation, we would like to briefly introduce you to the Kingdom of Denmark and provide you with some basic information and business and cultural context. The Kingdom of Denmark (Denmark) is a Scandinavian country in Northern Europe bordering the Baltic and North Seas. The country consists of a large peninsula and more than 100 islands referred to as the Danish Archipelago, including the territories of Greenland and the Faroe Islands, and the capital is Copenhagen. Other large cities include Aarhus, Odense, Aalborg and Esbjerg. Denmark has great business relationships with its neighbours, Germany, Sweden and Norway. The population of Denmark is above 5.8 million (July 2018 estimate) and lives on a total area of 43,096 square kilometres. The official language is Danish. Other minority languages in Denmark are Faroese, German and Greenlandic. Additionally, there is a great English language competency in Denmark and the majority of the population speaks English. It is important to emphasize that it is possible to communicate with public officers in English and many official documents are in English, which represents a great advantage for businesses and entrepreneurs from all over the world. Since 1849, the government system is a constitutional monarchy with the Queen as the chief of state and the prime minister as the head of government. Queen Margrethe II became monarch thanks to the change 81 Alexandra Andhov, Jakob Wested and Rasmus Kristian Feldthusen - 9781839108457 Downloaded from Elgar Online at 10/02/2021 05:54:19AM via free access 82 START-UP LAW in the law in 1953 which allowed a woman to ascend to the throne.1 She succeeded her father, King Frederick IX, in 1972.

  • The 'Long Reformation' in Nordic Historical Research
    1 The ‘long reformation’ in Nordic historical research Report to be discussed at the 28th Congress of Nordic Historians, Joensuu 14-17 August 2014 2 Preface This report is written by members of a working group called Nordic Reformation History Working Group, that was established as a result of a round table session on the reformation at the Congress of Nordic Historians in Tromsø in Norway in August 2011. The purpose of the report is to form the basis of discussions at a session on “The ‘long reformation’ in Nordic historical research” at the Congress of Nordic Historians in Joensuu in Finland in August 2014. Because of its preliminary character the report must not be circulated or cited. After the congress in Joensuu the authors intend to rework and expand the report into an anthology, so that it can be published by an international press as a contribution from the Nordic Reformation History Working Group to the preparations for the celebration in 2017 of the 500 years jubilee of the beginning of the reformation.

    European Historical Economics Society EHES Working Paper | No. 183 | May 2020 Success through failure? Four Centuries of Searching for Danish Coal Kristin Ranestad, Lund University Paul Richard Sharp, University of Southern Denmark, CAGE, CEPR EHES Working Paper | No. 183 | May 2020 Success through failure? Four Centuries of Searching for Danish Coal* Kristin Ranestad, Lund University Paul Richard Sharp1, University of Southern Denmark, CAGE, CEPR Abstract Natural resources, especially energy resources, are often considered vital to the process of economic development, with the availability of coal considered central for the nineteenth century. Clearly, however, although coal might have spurred economic development, development might also have spurred the discovery and use of coal. To shed light on this, we suggest that the case of resource poor Denmark, which spent centuries looking for coal, is illuminating. Specifically, we emphasize that the process of looking for coal and the creation of a natural resource industry in itself is important beyond the obvious dichotomy of haves and have-nots. We seek to understand this process and find that prices proved an important stimulus to coal surveys. JEL Codes: N53 Keywords: Coal, Denmark, natural resources, mining * We would like to thank participants at the 2016 Asia Pacific Economic and Business History Conference, University of Adelaide, South Australia, as well as seminar participants, for helpful comments and suggestions. 1 Corresponding author: [email protected] Notice The material presented in the EHES Working Paper Series is property of the author(s) and should be quoted as such.

    Byways in Danish transport Pay, working conditions and living standards of Bulgarian, Romanian and Macedonian lorry drivers in Denmark and Western Europe. A report on the free movement of labour in the transport sector. Romanian drivers at long-term lorry park in Taastrup Prepared by COWI for 3F Transport and the Danish Transport and Logistics Association (DTL) with financial support from the Danish Working Environment Authority. Every day more than four thousand foreign lorries cross the borders of Denmark. An increasing num- ber of them are driven by Bulgarian, Romanian or Macedonian drivers. The use of Eastern European lorries and drivers on Danish roads has featured on many front pages and has been the subject of many television news sto- ries in recent years – often with negative headlines about infringement of rules or brief stories about wretched living standards and poor pay and work- ing conditions. This report portrays actual conditions on the basis of information gathered from the drivers them- selves, the objective being to provide critical and constructive input to the debate on the EU single market and the creation of a framework that will ensure fair competition and better working condi- tions in the European transport sector. Erik Østergaard, CEO, Danish Transport and Logistics Association, and Jan Villadsen, General Secretary of 3F Transport Autumn 2015: European lorry cuisine The life of drivers and the Danish Balkans Who transport goods to people living in Den- mark, and under what conditions do they do so?

In the introduction to Shakespeare and the Middle Ages, Curtis Perry and John Watkins note that “almost any book written on the Hundred Years War or the Wars of the Roses begins by explaining just how Shakespeare got it wrong. He conflated characters, condensed chronologies, cleaned up some careers, and sullied others” (Perry and Watkins 1). The two tetralogies, which include Richard II, Henry IV Part 1 and Part 2, Henry V, Henry VI Part 1-3, and Richard III, comprise the body of work that is commonly studied for medievalisms, and in these plays Shakespeare’s interpretation of the past demonstrates nation building, ‘Englishness,’ and a concern about the nature of power (Perry and Watkins 16).

  • A Stronger Denmark” Vs
    “A stronger Denmark” vs. “to welcome people seeking refuge” An analysis of Danish and Swedish newspapers’ and policy documents’ framing of “the refugee crisis” and border controls Diantha Jayananthan & Mette Kryger Pedersen Malmö University Date of examination: June 13, 2018 Media and Communication Studies: Culture, Collaborative Media, and the Creative Industries Faculty of Culture and Society, School of Arts and Communication Two-Year Master Thesis (15 Credits) Supervisor: Tina Askanius Examiner: Bo Reimer Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to understand how Danish and Swedish news media and governments framed “the refugee crisis” in the context of the Swedish implementation of border controls in 2015 and the removal of external border controls in 2017. We operationalize framing theory (Entman 1993) to understand the differences and similarities in the framing of “the refugee crisis” in Denmark and Sweden. While the main focus is media representations, policy documents are included in the study to deepen the analysis and understand the similarities and differences across migration policies. Through a quantitative content analysis of 259 newspaper articles from eight Danish and Swedish newspapers, a framing analysis of ten policy documents and a qualitative framing analysis of the overall frames in the news articles and policy documents, we identified a dialectic relation of power between media and political discourse in both countries. We found that issues defined and represented in policy documents tend to reflect the challenges that news media define and the other way around. Even though Danish and Swedish newspapers and policy documents highlight similar problems, our data indicates clear differences in migration policies, in the two countries, in terms of the framing of asylum seekers, refugees and political events in 2015.
