Description
Richard Jenkins' Being Danish offers a comprehensive look at modern Danish culture, tracing the evolution of what it means to be Danish from the 1990s to the 2011 parliamentary election. Drawing on extensive archival material and ethnographic fieldwork, Jenkins explores topics such as Denmark's relationship with the European Union, cultural symbolism, Christianity, and the impact of immigration.
Through his outsider's perspective, Jenkins sheds light on a relatively small but sociopolitically fascinating country, examining how the idea of Danish identity has been shaped by significant events and cultural shifts. This nuanced exploration provides valuable insights into Denmark's complex social landscape.
