Knowledge on the Nordics

The Nordics and identity: unite or divide?


Listen Later

Academics tend to agree that identity is of particular importance right now. The participants of this podcast explore how different portrayals of history can influence our identity, these portrayals can be in the form of school curricula, museums and cultural institutions, or even company advertising and specific nation-branding. Local and national identities appear to be becoming more dominant than global or regional ones, which were arguably favoured at earlier points in time; concepts of identity are becoming increasingly entrenched leading to a sense of ‘us’ and ‘them’.  Listen to this podcast which starts its investigation with ideas of national identity.

Be sure to listen to the next podcast on identity which focuses more on regional identity!
