HIS 1021. Sustainable Denmark: How can We achieve
Sustainable Development
The global quest for sustainable development causes specific
challenges for affluent societies like Denmark. How do we promote
worldwide equality while solving local and global environmental
problems like climate change, and social challenges like
inequality? Can continued economic growth on which our affluence is
grounded really last or do we have to choose between affluence and
sustainability?
A cursory introduction to the recent socio-environmental history of
Denmark that focuses on such issues as social cohesion, pollution,
energy, biodiversity, climate change, knowledge production,
governance, economy, technology and everyday environmentalism will
form the common ground for transnational and transdisciplinary
comparisons. In seminars and discussions, different analytical
approaches will be put on the line and their reach and
applicability tested prerequisites for a truly sustainable
development will be elaborated.
The course is arranged in collaboration
with Sustainability
Science Centre, UCPH
As course literature, we will use the unpublished manuscript of
the basic reader Bo Fritzbøger: Affluence and/or
Sustainability? An introduction to Environmental Histories of
Denmark since 1970, which will be uploaded on the course web
page.
A number of other texts will also be uploaded in Absalon before the
start of the semester.
