HISTORY
Danish reactions to German
occupation: history and historiography /Carsten Holbraad.
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 foreign policy divisions. Analysing the
conduct of a traumatised and strategically exposed small state bordering on an
aggressive great power, the book traces a development from reluctant
cooperation to active resistance. In doing so, Holbraad surveys and examines
the subsequent, and not yet quite finished, debate among Danish historians
about this contested period, which takes place between those siding with the
resistance and those more inclined to justify limited cooperation with the
occupiers – and who sometimes even condone various acts of collaboration.
