With Denmark faring reasonably well through the global financial crisis, the policy changes to the social housing sector caused by the crisis have been limited. Nevertheless, changes have taken place nonetheless both in terms of policy and in the residential composition of the sector which policies are trying to react upon. This means that the sector is at a cross-road as this paper will show. The future remains uncertain; depending to a large extent on the application of the policies already in place and policy reactions to the current challenges.

The aim of this article is to present the activites undertaken by Alexandra Kollontai during her stay in Sweden in 1914. Alexandra was a famous socialist activist at the time, and as a consequence of her activity had to flee Russia in 1908. For the following eight years, she remained in exile. She traveled throughout Europe, but collaborated most closely the with German Social Democrats party. After the I World War began, Kollontai – along with her son, Michael – was arrested. Thanks to an intervention of influential German politicians, both of them were released from jail. Shaken, she broke up her ties with the German socialist movement. Alone, Kollontai traveled to Sweden in September 1914, and moved for good to Stockholm. During the sojourn in Sweden, Kollontai was in touch with one of the most prominent local socialist activists, Hjalmar Branting, and took an active part in the Swedish socialist movement. During her short-term stay in Norway, Kollontai was not formally a supporter of the Bolshevik proposition, but she still wrote letters to Lenin. She also had a love affair with a Bolshevik comrade, Alexander Shliapnikov. The Swedish police arrested Kollontai for participation in anti-military propaganda activities. She was exiled from the country in November 1914, to Copenhagen. Also there, Kollontai managed to establish close relationship with the Bolsheviks. Hereafter, she has played a crucial role in the re-opening of the northern smuggling route.

The UNESCO proclaimed the year 1973 as Copernicus Year. Polish immigrants in Denmark, who left the Polish People’s Republic between 1969–1973, with the encouragement of the Editor-in-chief of the newspaper „Chronicle” in Copenhagen, took the initiative to celebrate the great jubilee and arranged a symposium. The main paper, by Professor Leon Koczy (Glasgow), was about Copernicus and the excellent Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe. Participants of the symposium also had the opportunity to listen to five other papers and to take part in a long discussion. The second day of the symposium was dedicated to Polish and international music – a mass was celebrated in memory of Polish scientists and artists who had perished or been killed, followed by a classical music concert performed by immigrant master-musicians. The jubilee celebration in Denmark was under the patronage of Edward Raczyński, Polish ambassador to the UK and one of the Polish political leaders in exile. For the new immigration this was the first great step in their new life, because the symposium was in support of WWII combatant emigration and the President of the Polish Republic in exile.

Pursuant to the Constitution of 1953, the Kingdom of Denmark is a unitary state. How- ever, the status of the Faroe Islands and Greenland actually defies the uniform character of this state. In its broader aspect, this situation undermines the widespread myth of Nordic unity. The official standpoint, explaining the Danish policy of aiding the Faroe Islands and Green- land, points to the long-standing tradition that links Denmark with her overseas territories and the common values that bind them. The Danish responsibility for the development of these territories is also emphasized and financial aid is treated as an expression of the solidarity pol- icy. The paper analyzes the benefits and costs related to maintaining the insular possessions of Denmark.

The author claims that neither the Sejm nor any of its bodies is competent to reply to the notice. Due to the general and hypothetical nature of the allegations regarding the alleged damages suffered by the Investor, referring to them at this stage should be regarded as premature. From the statements contained in the notice it follows that the procedure for the resolution of disputes specified in Article 9 para. 2 of the Agreement of 1 May 1990 cannot be used in this respect. The indicated three-month time limit for resolving the dispute through negotiation is devoid of legal basis and, as such, not binding. If the dispute is described in the notice will be the subject of court proceedings, differences in the answers given by each recipient of the notice may be used against Poland or the State Treasury. For this reason, it is worth considering coordinating the preparation of response to the notice by all its recipients to prevent a disparity between them.

Nowadays changes in the field of conditionings of European labour market policy as ageing society and crisis of welfare state, impose new objectives for the process of cohesion creation. The European Union countries, representing different labour market policy models (Scandinavian, corporate, liberal), have implemented labour market reforms allowing for effective usage of labour resources. The author in the article presents the assumptions of labour market policy models and indicates the main directions of its transformation in the current social and economic conditionings. That transformation mainly regards to concentration on active labour market policies and increasing its efficiency. The analysis was based on the example of three countries - Denmark, Germany and the United Kingdom. They represent three different labour market models and are characterized by the activity in the field of carried out reforms of labour market (mainly active labour market policy). Those countries, thanks to the implemented changes, improved the employability of labour force and (in spite of the economic crisis from 2008) maintained stable situation on the labour market.

The Polish-Danish diplomatic relations were officially established on 7 July 1945, when the Danish government acknowledged the Provisional Government of National Unity. The attempts to establish mutual relations started in June 1945, and the person who represented Poland was Jerzy Pański, the founder of the Association of Polish Patriots in Sweden and the representative of the information agency Polpress. Re-established Polish-Danish relations after WW II were dominated by economic contacts, because it was a difficult economic situation in both countries that made them start and continue the cooperation. In postwar Denmark there was a shortage of energy raw materials such as coal and coke, and the main trade partners of Denmark in the interwar period – Great Britain and Germany – were unable to satisfy the needs of Denmark. Danish politicians came up with an idea to obtain coal from Poland. Quite a few countries sought the delivery of coal at that time. Poland wanted to gain international recognition for its government, to reconstruct the country and to guarantee Poles deliveries of food. Agricultural and industrial articles constituted the basis of the Danish export. In the years 1945–1946 the first Polish-Danish trade contracts were made, which reestablished economic contacts, interrupted by the war. They outlined the direction of the cooperation for the next few years. The trade agreement of 29 August 1945 was a typical compensational contract – Poland exported coal and coke to Denmark, and in return Poland got butter, bacon, horses, cattle, seeds and fish. The total value of the turnover amounted to 54 million Danish crowns. The Polish-Danish trade and payment agreement of 7 October 1946 was more diversified , and the list of goods offered by both countries was more extensive. Poland saw to it that the list of products exported to Denmark was not so one-sided and based only on coal. Coal still constituted the basis of Polish export, but Denmark was interested in purchasing Polish zinc-plated sheet metal, glass and sanitary porcelain. The total value of the mutual exchange rose to 184 million Danish crowns. In the first postwar years Denmark was engaged in charity help for destroyed Poland. Danes gave food to children and the elderly, collected clothes, and what is most important they guaranteed medical help, thanks to which they won favour with Polish people.

Theoretically, there are many good arguments that unions should support a proposal on basic income. The main reason for the Danish trade unions resistance to basic income reform is that it would go against the short-term interest of the unions in organisational self-maintenance. Trade unions will lose power in relation to their members with a basic income. Trade unions have control over individual members by virtue of the collective agreement system and the labour law system. If you have a basic income system, the individual worker will decide when he or she wants to leave his workplace and strike. Suppose a single worker or a group of workers leave their workplace because of dissatisfaction with the working condition. In that case, they will be punished financially according to the rules of labour law rely on any support from their trade union.

From the beginning of metal-detector based archaeology practiced by members of the public, the formal heritage sector in Denmark determined to pursue a liberal model based on cooperation and inclusion rather than confrontation and criminalization. Based on the findings of the ‘2015 Danish detectorists survey’ it is argued that Danish metal-detector archaeology has challenged the classic division of roles in archaeology and heritage management, and that at least a large proportion of Danish detectorists practice their hobby adhering to the highest professional standards, which stand in sharp contrast to the often-cited stereotype of the detectorists as mere ‘treasure hunter’.

The author analyses Copernicus’s ideas described in De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (1543) and the different view of the universe put forward by the excellent Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe (1546–1601). Elias Olsen Morsing (1550–1590), a collaborator of Tycho Brahe, was sent to Frombork (Frauenburg) in 1584 to take the same measurements as Copernicus, but with his own, much better, instruments. The idea was to compare the new measurements with those taken by Copernicus. The expedition was a success. Morsing was able to detect certain errors in Copernicus’s measurements, and the scope of these errors. While in Frombork, Morsing received a primitive astronomical instrument and a portrait of Copernicus as gifts from canon Jan Hannovius. The author of this paper notes the Catholic Church’s scepticism about Copernicus’s theory of the universe, while acknowledging that both Copernicus and Brahe had deep faith in God and shared the belief that they owed their learning and achievement to God.

The article concerns the correspondence contacts of Poles from Poland under partition and from newly regained independence in 1918 with the outstanding Danish philosopher Harald Høffding. They are basically about getting in touch with science and thought in the West as soon as possible. As a result, his most important works were translated in Poland in a relatively short time. In his research, Høffding dealt with e.g. the problem of the relationship between the individual and the multiplicity, and the struggle to create harmony between the conflicting tendencies. On the Polish side, philosophers such as Wincenty Lutosławski or Czesław Znamierowski, as well as others, including the writer Henryk Sienkiewicz and Cardinal Mieczysław Ledóchowski, were interested.

There are different ways of placing sports in social life, and the workplace is one of them. The Scandinavian countries are internationally renowned for their particular development of company sport. This is linked to the dynamics of the Nordic welfare society and political concern about ‘public health’. On the basis of recent Danish research, current practices of company sport are examined. There is social change inside company sport, and new strata demand more and wider offers of sport in the workplace. Side by side with sport in specialized clubs, sport in local-cultural ‘popular’ associations and sport in commercial institutes, sport in the workplace, thus, has a future. This challenges the traditional division of everyday life under capitalist conditions: collective work here, private leisure there. People's health as a human right under the conditions of developing capitalism changes the agenda, also for sports.

The author analyzes the problem of the political position of the Parliament of Greenland. It is an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark, which functions on the basis of the assumptions of the parliamentary system of the government. The new Act on Greenland Self-Government of 2009 has increased the degree of the existent autonomy. Greenland has a complex system of authorities, in which the unicameral parliament, composed of 31 deputies, fulfi lls relevant functions. Political parties play an important role in the system as well. It is believed that it is the parliamentary practice — apart from other conditions, in particular economic ones — that will be of great importance while deciding about the Greenland’s readiness for gaining independence.

The tiny Hans Island, claimed by both Canada and Denmark, is the latest disputed land in Arctic. The aim of this article is to analyse whether this sovereignty question can be resolved by referring to the doctrine of occupation. The methods used are historical analysis and the dogmatics of international law. The historical examples and doctrinal views lead to the first level conclusion that in certain circumstances a land that belongs to no one can be occupied by a state merely by means of symbolic actions. Further considerations focus on the questions of whether Hans Island should be considered as possessing such certain qualities and if so, whether any of the contestants has ever performed any actions that can be interpreted as taking it into its possession. The conclusion points out that although it is very unlikely that analyzed solutions would be used to determine the fate of the Island, it is still crucial to realise that doctrines of international law, which may seems archaic, are to some extent still applicable and could be used in the Arctic disputes.

The decision to establish cooperation between Denmark and Poland aft er WWII was determined by economic reasons. Poland became an important supplier of coal to Denmark. Despite the fact that the countries belonged to two opposing political-military blocks, the Danish diplomatic post in Warsaw observed what was going on in Poland and the changes taking place in Polish home policy. The years 1949–1956 were eventful: the Polish United Workers’ Party took over power in the country and the anti-clerical offensive and Stalinist terror mounted; the culminating point of the period were the events of October 1956 and Władysław Gomułka took over. The aim of the article is to demonstrate the manner in which the Danish post in Warsaw described and evaluated the changes taking place in Poland in the years 1949–1956, which events attracted the interest of diplomats and which were considered insignificant. Danish diplomats perceived postwar Poland as a country where the communist system had been imposed by the USSR and was closely controlled by the Soviets. Nevertheless, they had a liking for the Polish nation, particularly for Bolesław Bierut whom they regarded as a real statesman. Danish diplomats in their reports analysed the economic situation in Poland, recorded economic reforms, and described the relations of Poland with Germany.

Danish agriculture is one of the most modern. Agriculture and related industries play a significant role in the Danish economy. About 2.5% of the workforce works in agriculture, which accounts for 3% of gross domestic product. Agricultural land covers approximately 60% of Denmark's land area. In Denmark, there are around 40,000 farms with an average size of 65 ha and around 1,300 horticultural farms. 70% of Danish agriculture is breeding and production of pork as well as milk and its products. The remaining 30% is plant production, dominated by the cultivation of wheat, barley, potatoes and sugar beets. The beginnings of agricultural advisory services in Denmark took place in the last decades of the 19th century. At that time, around 90% of the land in Denmark was privately owned. In 1893, farmers established the Federation of Danish Farmers 'Unions, bringing together local farmers' unions - mainly owners of larger farms. In 1910, the Federation of Associations of Small Farmers was established Agricultural, which in 1919 established its National Federation. Both federations are active to this day and are essential for the functioning of agricultural advisory services in Denmark.

Duńskie rolnictwo należy do najbardziej nowoczesnych. Rolnictwo i przemysł z nim związany odgrywają znaczną rolę w gospodarce Danii. W rolnictwie, wytwarzającym 3% produktu krajowego brutto pracuje około 2,5% siły roboczej. Użytki rolne zajmują około 60% powierzchni Danii. W Danii jest około 40000 gospodarstw o przeciętnej wielkości 65 ha oraz około 1300 gospodarstw ogrodniczych. 70% duńskiego rolnictwa to hodowla, produkcja mięsa wieprzowego oraz mleka i jego przetworów. Pozostałe 30% stanowi produkcja roślinna, w której dominuje uprawa pszenicy, jęczmienia, ziemniaków i buraków cukrowych. Początki doradztwa rolniczego w Danii miały miejsce w ostatnich dekadach XIX wieku. W tym czasie około 90% ziemi w Danii było prywatną własnością. W 1893 roku rolnicy utworzyli Federację Związków Rolników Duńskich skupiającą lokalne związki rolników – głównie właścicieli większych gospodarstw. W 1910 roku powstała Federacja Związków Posiadaczy Drobnych Gospodarstw Rolnych, która w 1919 roku utworzyła swoją Krajową Federację. Obydwie federacje prowadzą aktywną działalność do dnia dzisiejszego i mają istotne znaczenie dla funkcjonowania doradztwa rolniczego w Danii.
