For five years during World War II, Denmark was occupied by Germany. While the Danish reaction to this period of its history has been extensively discussed in Danish-language publications, it has not until now received a thorough treatment in English. 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.Praise for Danish Reactions to German Occupation'Carsten Holbraad's scrupulously impartial survey of Denmark's history in the Second World War and of Danish historiography concerning the period is a great boon to Anglophone readers. Almost all of the hundreds of works he cites are available only in Danish, and most English-language studies of his topic are badly dated.'Michigan War Studies Review

Fabricate 2024: Creating Resourceful Futures is the fifth volume in the series of Fabricate publications. The first conference - 'Making Digital Architecture' - explored the ways in which technology, design and industry are shaping the world around us. Since then, we have become finely attuned to the negative impacts of this shaping. The 2024 conference, hosted in Copenhagen, sets focus on the pressing need to develop new models for architectural production that rethink how resource is deployed, its intensity, its socio-ecological origins and sensitivity to environment.This book features the work of designers, engineers and makers operating within the built environment. It documents disruptive approaches that reconsider how fabrication can be leveraged to address our collective and entangled challenges of resource scarcity, climate emergency and burgeoning demand. Exploring case studies of completed buildings and works-in-progress, together with interviews with leading thinkers, this edition of Fabricate offers a plurality of tangible models for design and production that set a creative and responsible course towards resourceful futures.
In Social Research for our Times researchers from the 50 years of UCL's Thomas Coram Research Unit share some of the most important results of their studies. Taking a unique opportunity to reflect on research context as well as findings, chapters address the key strategic question of what the relationship between research and policy should be.
Educational research can address today's global challenges of sustainability, structural inequality and social justice.

Global goods - Indian textiles, Chinese porcelain - were central to the material culture of 18th-century country houses. They tied wealthy property owners in Europe, America and Asia into global systems of supply and the processes of empire. This book offers fresh insights into the multi-directional flow of goods and culture of the time.
