The German-Danish Border: A Successful Resolution of an Age-Old Conflict or its Redefinition?

Author: Norman Berdichevsky

Abstract

The author also considers the change in status of the Danish minority in the Schleswig-Holstein region. Although it felt abandoned following Denmark's refusal to press for a plebiscite or annexation of South Schleswig in 1945, it has re-established a firm footing in the cultural, social and political life of the region, and is considerably stronger than the German minority in Denmark, a reversal of the situation that prevailed in 1920 or 1939.
