Abstract In this article, an attempt has been made to explain how globalization has exerted unstoppable influence on the Danish economy. We attempt to look at four different influences of globalization on the Euro zone together with European integration, which is an aspect of globalization. How did it affect the Danish economy? European integration and globalization brought pressure in terms of industrial restructuring and required countries to drop their liberal discourse. Denmark is a typical example of a Scandinavian welfare regime that managed to shrug off globalization challenges but still maintained its welfare model. For it to have successfully integrated, it needed to succumb to political and market pressures of globalization which it did not. Denmark has very unique national characteristics together with its geographical size but how did all these help it reject globalization pressure? Introduction Denmark has been on the upward trend in the twentieth century. Although it is small and rural, Denmark is very prosperous politically, socially and economically (Selle, 1999). Its economy has been very stable after World War II. Denmark has been taunted for keeping its welfare model and embracing globalization. Its development and its famous model of ’flexicurity’ has been a subject of admiration by many European politicians, right wing or left wing. Although small in the global economy, Denmark still registered low unemployment in 2008; in the midst of global economic crisis in 2008, Denmark stood shoulder high as a model for preoccupations and issues that trigger true modernity and globalization (Catcora et al. 2012). Globalization brings with it a lot of things. Imagine globalization of markets and production of goods. Globalization has been demonized because it is thought to bring a lot of economic inequalities between countries that are already dominant and those that are not. It is also true to argue that globalization brings with it a lot of good things. Prosperity is achieved quickly and better job opportunities are made available. A wide range of products are made available and that too at lower prices. This means more profits for enterprises as a result of increase in production. But it also brings very serious challenges, for example the demand of highly qualified labor and diminishing demand for other labor profiles. This means that the level of education must be scaled up to keep up with this pace. How can this be possible if the goal of globalization is to benefit all? Denmark has been better furnished to tackle the effects of globalization (Catcora et al. 2012). Her secrets have been a flexible job market combined with a welfare state ensuring high security for revenues. Its economy is strong and the unemployment rate is very low. Its public sector is highly efficient which is good, economically. This is the system called ’flexicurity’. This is very unique, because it combines high level of service with low-binding employment protection. Denmark is ranked as a country with very high performance worldwide. It is thus obvious that the Danes believe in a democracy where diversity is very important and individual rights and free
