This book analyzes the resiliency of the German community in southern Denmark in a period of national strife. It explores the experience of a small minority that was not primarily separated from its host society by visible markers of language, religion, or appearance but predominately derived its national distinction from personal self-identification. The study''s findings demonstrate the significance of this community for a deeper understanding of collective identity formation.
"This compact but information-rich volume succeeds admirably in
accomplishing its editor’s goal of filling a gaping hole in the scholarship
about the complicated history of the Danish-German border region. [...] The volume is tightly organized and intellectually coherent, while the articles are
uniformly well-written and accessible to a broad audience, making them
well-suited to classroom use and offering a solid foundation for future
research into other, more humanistic and sociological inquiries into the
repercussions of political division and cultural hybridity as residents of
the border region have experienced and expressed them." Julie K. Allen in: Scandinavian Studies 3/2023
