Brian Arly Jacobsen - Foredragsholder

In this paper I will discuss the Danish politicians’ politisation of Jews and Judaism during 1903-45, and further how they discursively shape of the relations between Jews, Judaism and the Danish society. In other words, how have politicians attempted to construct “Danishness” and “otherness” during this period. The primary sources are debates, bills etc. found in the parliamentary archives which express the political elite’s views on Jews and Judaism. The paper will also include a theoretical discussion on how to analyse articulations on “otherness” as well as a description of the Jewish community during this period.
