This book adopts a non-nation-state-confined approach to the examination of Denmark, inviting reflection on new ways to conceptualise a Europe paralysed by crises. Focusing on the global strands which have produced understandings of selfhood, it calls for the production of narratives which better capture how European nations are shaped by that cannot be understood in (national) isolation, but are contingent on ideas about the nation's globality. As such, it examines how colonialism shaped national self-perceptions and considers colonialism's unfinished business, as well as contemporary migration and attempts to stage - and re-stage - global interventions.
