About this listen

 This in-depth exploration unpacks why 'getting to Denmark' is political science shorthand for building successful, equitable societies. It traces Denmark’s unique development: from feudalism disrupted by geography and empowered peasantry, through Protestant-driven literacy, to early public welfare and adaptive, communal democracy. Denmark's path highlights the role of trust, volunteerism, and evolving institutions—shaping modern social democracy and influencing Europe’s democratic left.
