Record #192821:

Identity, urbanization and political demography in Greenland / Jens Dahl.

Title: Identity, urbanization and political demography in Greenland / Jens Dahl.
Author(s): Dahl, Jens.
Date: 2010.
In: Acta Borealia. (2010.), Vol. 27(2) (2010)
Abstract: Describes how, since early colonial days, Greenland's demographic structure (including people's movements from settlements to towns) have followed political decisions taken in Copenhagen. Since 1970s, Greenlandic resistance to this policy came to epitomise defence of traditional culture, which was associated with life in settlements. After introduction of self-rule in 2009, new discourse seems to have taken over, which may change 300 years of demographic thinking and have significant impact on roots and negotiation of identity.
Notes:
