The Danish–German Bonn–Copenhagen Declarations 1955–2005 Jørgen Kühl* Sustainable Peace and Cooperation in Borderlands: The Danish–German Bonn–Copenhagen Declarations 1955–2005 I. Introduction In , the Kingdom of Denmark and the Federal Republic of Germany celebrated the th anniversary of the so-called Bonn–Copenhagen Declarations on the status and rights of the national minorities in the Danish–German border region. The declara- tions were made public on March by the Federal German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, notifying the rights of the Danish community holding German citizenship in the state of Schleswig-Holstein (the Bonn Declaration), and by the Danish Prime Minister Hans Christian Hansen, notifying the rights of the German community hold- ing Danish passports in the southern part of Jutland (the Copenhagen Declaration).1 Germany did not notify the status of the German community in Denmark or vice versa. The th anniversary of the declarations was celebrated at the official state level, by regional and local actors, and by the minorities concerned. Denmark and Germany issued identical postal stamps celebrating the anniversary.2 Numerous popular events and conferences took place. In the summer of , some young people from minorities and majorities from all over Europe met in the border region at a summer course called ‘Cultures in Dialogue’, focusing on the minority declarations and their European significance.3 A special anniversary exhibition was produced by the Danish * Director & Head of Department, Department of Border Region Studies, University of Southern Denmark (presently on leave). The declarations are documented in an English translation in Jørgen Kühl and Marc Weller (eds.), Minority Policy in Action: The Bonn–Copenhagen Declarations in a European Context – (Department of Border Region Studies/University of Southern Denmark, Aabenraa, Flensburg, ).

Jørgen Kühl museum in Sønderborg and travelled to several destinations in Germany and Denmark.4 Scholarly books and articles were produced in Danish, German and English.5 Both the Danish and German ministries of foreign affairs designed special websites on the Internet devoted to the anniversary.6 On March , the Danish and German heads of government met at a summit in the historic Sønderborg Castle to celebrate the anniversary together with invited guests, including representatives of both minorities concerned.7 In May , the Schleswig-Holstein parliament (the Landtag) invited the deputy speaker of the Danish parliament as the first non-member of the parliament to address the members of the Landtag on the declarations.8 Several other events took place in both countries during , including meetings, innumerable lectures and a popular festival.9 Thus, the Bonn–Copenhagen Declarations triggered significant interest not only in Denmark and Germany but also abroad. For instance, several foreign ambassadors and representatives from embassies attended the conference held in the Danish parlia- ment in Copenhagen. The declarations have often been described as the symbol of the Danish–German minority model because they, at least retrospectively, demarcate the decisive event in the resolution of the majority–minority conflict found in the Danish– German border region.10 This was not the general view back in , when the minori- ties were still sceptical and even somewhat dissatisfied with the immediate outcome of the implementation process of the declarations. Consequently, the significance of the declarations only became evident when viewed in a long-term perspective.

Det Kongelige Bibliotek, Copenhagen (collection history) 1. The Royal Library was founded by King Frederik III (1609-1670) in the 1650s by merging his private library with that inherited from his predecessors, and in particular by acquiring four important private libraries, The Bibliotheca Regia in the Castle of Copenhagen in his time housed more than 100 manuscripts, and was confirmed as National Library in the Danish Legal Deposit Law of 1697. Booty of war and acquisitions of whole manuscript collections from private scholars and collectors characterise the early 18th century. The Great Fire of Copenhagen, which spared the Royal Library and the Royal Archives, but annihilated the University Library, marks an intensification of manuscript acquisitions both in the private and in the public sphere. Besides important Icelandic codices, all the Danish medieval sources collected over the years by successive specially appointed Royal Historiographers were destroyed. New manuscript collections were established for the University Library, largely through private donations, but daring auction purchases and acquisitions of whole manuscript collections were also made, both privately and by the state. 2.

  • Review of Dr. Gerret Liebing Schlaber, Historian in Aabenraa, Denmark, in Grenzfriedenshefte: Quarterly Journal of German-Danish Dialogue, 4 (2013), Pp
    Review of Dr. Gerret Liebing Schlaber, historian in Aabenraa, Denmark, in Grenzfriedenshefte: Quarterly journal of German-Danish dialogue, 4 (2013), pp. 286-287: The Apenrade shipowner and also briefly national-liberal deputy in the Reichstag and the Prussian Diet was without doubt one of the most colourful characters in the political, economic and social life of the [North Schleswig] region in the last quarter of the 19th century. Therefore we welcome the fact that an academically well-founded biography was published on Michael Jebsen whose shipping company still exists and is not solely an important enterprise for Apenrade. Bert Becker, professor of history in Hong Kong, where the second headquarter of the Jebsen shipping company is located, thoroughly consulted an extensive range of primary sources, of which the company archives in Apenrade plays a special role. The size of the book should not put you off. It is meaningfully divided into chapters detailing the Jebsen family, the sailor, the fleet manager, the shipowner, the parliamentarian, and finally the (German) North Schleswiger Michael Jebsen. Each is closed with its own conclusion and is highly entertaining to read. Detailed indexes of persons (with biographical information), organisations, ships, and places facilitate access to specific parts of the book. All in all Becker draws a many-sided picture of an unusual man who did a great deal for his town and maritime trade which at the time was already becoming increasingly globalised, and who was also a key voice in the German Association for Northern Schleswig, and one of the driving forces in the creation of the national meeting place on the Knivsberg.
