Promoting Gender Equality in EU Development Aid: From Transformative Policy to Transformative Practice?
Authors: Debusscher Petra
Published: August 2018

Promoting gender equality in EU development aidThe European Commission combines specific funds for women's empowerment with gender mainstreaming in its twin-track approach to gender equality in development aid policies. The strategy is successful in terms of budgets and formal appearance but it is implemented in a limited, interest-guided and expertbureaucratic manner. Furthermore by privileging EU interests the strategy fails to address the needs of the poorest developing countries and it ignores civil society concerns. In practice, the twin-track strategy severely limits the transformative potential of gender equality policies.
We are here, we are queer and we are so used to it!
Authors: Brade Lovise Haj , Lundell Erika , Mohr Sebastian
Published: August 2018

Hvad er det der ‘kvæær’ egentlig? Dette spørgsmål synes altid at klistre til tekster og praksisser med queer som udgangspunkt, og dets svar bliver ofte tøvende, hængende i luften – ambivalent, utydeligt og afhængig af kontekst. For den som stiller  spørgsmålet, bliver svaret næsten aldrig så konkret som hen håbede på. Og for den som forventes at svare, bliver diffuse henvisninger til kombinationer af poststrukturalistiske forståelsesram mer, kritiske heteronormativitesstudier og selvvalgte (anti)identitetspositioner oftest det mest nærliggende, men sjældent helt dækkende, svar.
Køn og dømmekraft: Billedkunstens blinde punkt
Authors: Christensen Hans Dam
Published: August 2018

Gender and Judgement: The Blind Spot of the Visual Arts ‘Quality’ is the foremost criteria, when Danish art museums collect artworks. At least that is what curators claim when it comes to gender, and most female artists agree: gender issues are second to quality. However, in this article the concept of ‘quality’ is an obstacle for a critical thinking of gender. ‘Quality’ does not exist as an autonomous analytic category in the field of the visual arts. On the contrary, it is depending on the agents’ habitus as well as the cultural and social processes of valuing in the field. Therefore, this article argues, ‘gender’ should be considered before ‘quality’, just as ‘periods’, ‘geography’, ‘-isms’, ‘motives’ and so on are naturalized analytic categories in the museums’ everyday which without trouble go before any concern of ‘quality’. The article is not aiming at an equal number of male and female artists’  represented in the museums, which would just reproduce the traditional concept of quality, but of an increased professional awareness of gender issues in all practices and discourses of art.
“Særlig dansk” - Dansk litteraturs kanon i et minoritetsperspektiv
Authors: Thisted Kirsten
Published: August 2018

The Danish Literary Canon (Dansk litteraturs kanon) implicitly addresses pupils of non-Danish origin. The purpose of the canon is to suggest pedagogical tools in the teachings of specific texts that are viewed as central to the Danish and European literary tradition. The consequences of this project are not only that pupils of non-Danish origin become situated as ‘others’ in relation to the idea of ‘danishness’, but that this implicit constitution of ‘same’ and ‘difference’ naturalises Dansih national identity. From a minority studies point of view the pedagogical purpose should be to ask: How to teach Danish literature and with what purpose, and thus, not take what Danish literature is for granted.
Hvad er mesterværker? Kunsten som genforhandling af virkeligheden
Authors: Schultz Laura Luise
Published: August 2018

This article discusses how the idea of a national list of canonical works of art is at odds with performative strategies in contemporary art as they have developed since the early avantgardes first began to mix art and everyday life. From the middle of the 20th century, performative art forms such as happening, body art and all sorts of peformance art and theatre, challenged the notion of the work of art in favor of a concept of art as event or practice. Through the work of American modernist poet Gertrude Stein, and especially her deconstruction of the concepts of masterpieces and genius, the article explores how the performative turn has changed the way art is inscribed in a larger cultural context and history: Significant works of art no longer claim their right to glory through their monumental permanence and significance, but through their ability to change: to relate to shifting perspectives on an ever-changing reality.
To Belong to the Living – om queer slægtskab og reproduktiv futurisme
Authors: Petersen Michael Nebeling
Published: August 2018

Following Lee Edelman’s polemic argument against reproductive futurism and Sara Ahmed’s thinking on queer attachments, this article discusses queer kinship, as it is represented in the American movie The Kids Are All Right (2010). The reading argues that a heteronormative temporal development of the children makes queer kinship recognizable inside a heteronormative kinship paradigm, while simultaneously one mother and the sperm donor fight about the brutal reconceptualizations of masculinity, kinship, and queerness. The closing discussion of the concept of reproductive futurism departs from José Estaban Muñoz’ critique of Edelman and from the foucauldian concept of racism as the death function in the economy biopolitics and argues that race disappears in the thinking of Edelman, but has a significant part in the configuration of kinship in The Kids Are All Right .

Feminists read Habermas - den amerikanske feministiske Habermas-kritik stiller nye teoretiske spørgsmål
Authors: Fiig Christina
Published: August 2018

Artiklen præsenterer den amerikanske feministiske Habermas-kritik og giver en læsning af Youngs anerkendelsesbegreb. Young udfolder her to dimensioner; politisk-økonomisk og kulturel anerkendelse. Begrebet anvendes til at diskutere kvinder, kvindebevægelse og feminisme i Habermas' demokratiteori. Forfatteren argumenterer for, at Youngs dobbeltperspektiv er frugtbart både hos Habermas og i nordisk forskning om kvinder i politik.

Hvad gør de med faglighed og køn? - interview med studerende på et humanistisk studium
Authors: Knudsen Susanne V.
Published: August 2018

The article interprets professianlism and gender in mothertongue studies in higher education and research. The interpretation is based on a close reading of interviews with students who are in their second year. Opinions on academic content and approach divide the students, who are writing their M.A. theses, into two groups: some students' pronouncements are accepting and general, while others are critical and specific in what they say. The opinions on teaching and research devide the students, who are on their second year, where few want more research in their learning, whereas most of the studens are unaware of research in the teaching. They prefer to learn to teach as proffessionals outside the university. Some of the women can tell how their choises to teach outside the university are despised in mothertongue  studies in higher education. Theoretically and methodologically the author of this article is inspired by social constructivists and thinking beyond binarities by poststructuralism and postfeminist theories.
Gør køn en forskel? - Hvad fortæller studerende på universitetet om køn og studier på nordisk og kemi?
Authors: Reisby Kristen
Published: August 2018

The article deals with what female and male students at two different university studies explicitly say about gender differences in qualitative group and individual interviews. The female students are very critical and sometimes selfcritical of the social intercourse of women and of female social communities of practice, and describe male students' ways of interacting and masculine values as a counterpart. The interviews with male students contain less critical statements on their own social and professional attitudes and ways of interacting, but some negative statements on female social communities and female students' way of studying. The article discusses how these differences can be understood and in what way they might be a barrier for female students' development of an academic professionalism.
Børnekultur, køn og læreprocesser i børnehave og indskoling
Authors: Kampmann Jan
Published: August 2018

The article discusses the rhetoric of "the poor boys" and the "feminisation" of day-care institutions and primary schools. Referring to international as well as the authors own research, some of the common understandings are questioned. Instead of seeing "essence" as the explanation for the existence of gender-stereotypes among children, focus is on children's never ending negotiations on gender. Attention is drawn to children as agents and to children's cultural constructions concerning the meaning and impact of gender. Gender appears to be of central importance to children's attempt to establish social boundaries, collective and individual identities through play and social interation. Qualified input from adults to these negotiations seems to be a diversity of masculinities and femininities, rather than conforming to a kind of "Tazan and Jane"-dichotomy.

Om kvalifikationer og køn
Authors: Henningsen Inge
Published: August 2018

Qualifications and GenderIt is a myth that the universities as a system unconditionally recruit the academically best-qualified researchers. The priorities in the research system is determined by a range of - partly externally given - system requirements, which include a specific distribution of positions and research grants with regard to academic disciplines and research topics together with a set of institutional and geographic constraints. The system requirements predetermine at all times which kind of academic qualifications are in demand and determine who may altogether come into consideration for a research position. Fulfilment of the system requirements has both currently and historically justified that less qualified researchers with a specific academic profile are preferred to academic positions. The article offers examples of what is presently considered to be legitimate system requirements. Among these is not a more equal representation of the sexes in academic positions. The article argues that a more equal representation of the sexes could lead to an increase in the overall academic quality of the research system.
Affirmative Action: Lessons to Be Learned from the United States' Experience?
Authors: Kersten Astrid
Published: August 2018

Bidraget er ikke tilgængeligt elektronisk.Abstract:This article discusses the issue of Affirmative Action, as it has been implemented in the US context over the past 35 years. It explores the legal and operational nature of AA in the US, its accomplishments with regard to improving the status of women in the US workforce, and alternative ways in which AA can be applied effectively in the European context. Is is argued that AA is both a useful and necessary tool for combatting gender discrimination in the workplace - without AA, basic issues of accountability and progress are very difficult to operationalize, leaving the goal of equal employment opportunity in the realm of idealistic abstraction. Should European contries decide to use AA, the U.S. experience can provide many useful lessons regarding the need for education, the need for a proper legislative framework, and the need to supplement this legislation with internal company development efforts.
Voldtægt som et krigsvåben
Authors: Card Claudia
Published: August 2018

Claudia Card argues that mass rape in war, like civilian rape, is a form of terrorism that aims to domesticate both women survivors of rape and the man who are socially connected to women who are raped. The primary function of rape, whether civilian or martial, is to produce dominance. The purpose of war rape, such as has occurred in Bosnia-Herzegovina, is genocide. War rape involves both outright slaughter as well as the cultural decimation of a group's identity. Although on the individual level, motives for committing war rape may be banal, coherent patterns are apparent at the level of strategy. The symbolic meaning of rape in patriarchal societies is dominance. Card explores possible strategies for resisting war rape. She discusses the importance of women becoming armed and skilled in the weapons of defence, and speculates about the possibility of women infiltrating the military. She fantasizes about "compulsory transsexual surgery" as a penalty for rape, a penalty which would attack the primary symbol of male dominance. The ultimate aim of resistance is to change the symbolic significance of rape, so that it no longer communicates dominance.
Intet nyt under solen? Refleksion over feministisk teori
Authors: Rosenbeck Bente
Published: August 2018

The article deals with the revival of Jürgen Habermas and critical theory in the debate of feminist theory and method. At the conceptual level the relationship between discourse and identity and the question of a non-discoursive concept of experience are discussed. Several feminist researchers who have been attracted by poststructuralist thinking now aim at a combination of Habermas and Foucault. (e.g. Lois McNay). Also Seyla Benhabib and her critical  questions about postmodernism and emancipation enjoy great prominence. Can feminist theory be postmodernist and still retain an interest in emancipation? The article encourages to consider the possible combination of Foucalt's critique of institutions and of power/knowledge with the utopian thinking of Habermas.

Transnational Experiences
Authors: Rasmussen Lene Kofoed , Galal Lise Paulsen
Published: August 2018

Globalisation, migration and modern technology mean that it is possible to talk about today’s society as stretching beyond the borders of nation states. Is this basic insight of transnational studies also valid if the borders are those of a predominantly Muslim Middle East and an increasingly migrant-hostile Europe? If so, what features does the transnational experience of Middle Eastern migrants in Europe have? A number of scholars set out to investigate these questions in a research seminar in September 2006. Gender negotiations and expectations appeared to be central to the transnational experience and was addressed in most of the papers presented at the seminar. Thus the journal Women, Gender and Research (Kvinder, Køn og Forskning) provides an apt arena for taking these questions further. In this special issue of the journal, transnational experiences of families, individuals, networks and organisations are presented by some of the participants in the seminar and other invited contributors.
Egyptian Workers in Paris – Economic Migration and the Male Burden under Transnationalism
Authors: Saad Reem
Published: August 2018

This article looks at the living and working conditions of a group of Egyptian workers in the Paris region. The article argues that the experience of this group is dictated by a transnational framework that is particularly evident in the meanings of ‘community' and of ‘home', and by the gender assigned roles in rural Egypt where the man is to shoulder the burden of providing for the family.
Intellectual Influences between the West and the Muslim World – Religious Authority in Transnational Interaction

Or does a multidirectional exchange of ideas exist? These questions are addressed by examination of legal opinions on gender issues.
Nationalism, belonging, globalization and the ‘ethics of care’
Authors: Yuval-Davis Nira
Published: August 2018

Endowing migrant domestic workers with citizenship on the basis of a feminist ‘ethics of care', has been suggested as an alleviation of their current situation. However, concepts of formal citizenship does not take account of the way that other and less formal forms of citizenship give access to different types of resources, nor to the multi-layered character of belonging. Rather, the adoption of an ‘ethics of care' by women facilitate the smooth working of globalised neo-liberalism.
Problematized Patients – Intersectional Perspectives on Gender, Ethnicity, Class and Biomedicine
Authors: Holen Mari , Lehn-Christiansen Sine
Published: August 2018

Problematized patients – Intersectional perspectives on gender, ethnicity, class and biomedicine. This article presents an empirical analysis of the constitutional processes of becoming a patient in a Danish hospital setting by focusing on the intersections between biomedicine, gender, ethnicity, and class. The article uses the concept of intersectionality to emphasize institutional practices and how they shape knowledge, how inequalities are intersectional and contextual, and how the positioning of patients and thereby access to health care is differentiated by race, class, and gender. Three ‘problematized’ patients are analysed, showing how patients are subjectified by the hegemonic knowledge regimes of the hospital. This illustrates that gender, ethnicity, age and class play a constitutive role in the way patients are constructed as problematic within the clinic, thus supporting existing research in biomedicine as not neutral but negotiable. In addition, the arti- cle shows how the categories of gender, ethnicity, and class are put into play, silenced, and/or merged and mixed differently in each case.
Intersektionalitet i voldtægtsnarrativer
Authors: Andreassen Rikke
Published: August 2018

The article shows how the Danish news media’s portrayals of meetings between visible minority males and ethnically Danish females have participated in constructing certain images of gender, sexuality and race/ ethnicity. It illustrates how understandings of these categories are interwoven with understandings of nationality and Danishness. The article shows how ethnically Danish females have been constructed as symbolic reproducers of the nation, and how sexual assaults against ethnically Danish women therefore have been interpreted as assaults against the nation. The article explains how this understanding has been at play in rape narratives where gender has been articulated in rape cases with white ethnically Danish perpetrators whereas race/ethnicity has been articulated as an explanation for rape in cases with visible minority perpetrators.

At blive en ligeværdig dansk kvinde -fortællinger om race, køn og heteroseksualitet
Authors: Petersen Lene Myong
Published: August 2018

Becoming an equal Danish woman - narratives about race, gender and heterosexuality.Drawing from a qualitative study on transnational adoption this article explores the question of racialized becoming in a Danish context. The analysis is based on interviews with adult female Korean adoptees, and it finds that discursively constructed categories of Asian femininity are marked by processes of hypersexualization. Hence, the interviewees negotiate subjectivity from intersections where colonial and racialized fantasies of Asian women, as both victims of patriarchy and inherently sexually promiscuous, clash with Danish ideals of gender equality. Ideals that are racialized as white.

Kønsforskningen og det europæiske projekt har fælles intentioner når det gælder udviklingen af ny viden og forskning på tværfagligt grundlag. Og kønsforskning rummer nye begrebsmæssige kontekster til at forstå europæiske nøgleord som medborgerskab, velfærdsstat, familie, race og etnicitet. Det nye 6. rammeprogram for forskning har dog ikke gjort det lettere for kønsforskere at koble sig på. Køn er til stede overalt og ingen steder, bl.a. som følge af mainstreamstrategien.

Mellem kunstig befrugtning og naturlig intelligens - om skiftende betydninger af køn og kvalitet
Authors: Bryld Mette , Lykke Nina
Published: August 2018

The article analyses two recent debates in the Danish parliament which both focussed on the sighificance of gender. One dealt with the idea that the government should earmark forty professorships for women since the percentage of women professors remains extremely low (6%). The proposal was met with strong objections mainly arguing that quality and gender are not related. The second debate evolved around the Bill on assisted reproduction. In contrast, gender and quality were here articulated as two sides of the same coin. Only women in a steady relationship with a man were allowed medical assistance with insemination, etc. In confronting the two debated, we deconstruct the phallogecentrism that are embedded in the discourses of the majority of debaters.

Inte bitch men butch - En kort queerteoretisk hjälpreda för feminister
Authors: Rosenberg Tina
Published: August 2018

This article addresses the shortcomings of some feminist readings of queer genders. Focussing on masculinity without men, this article discusses the aesthetics and gender politics surrounding butch/femme roles within lesbian tradition. The butch/femme role-playing is excisting not because it represents heterosexual desire and gender(s), but because it does not. As a site of resistance, the butch/femme role-playing challenges heteronormativity in a society where heterosexuality is the dominant code that defines (and in a sense creates) all sexualities, no matter whether we choose to participate or not.

The heritage of Kieslowski is the cultural heritage of both Communism and Catholicism in Poland.
Kvinder i Østtyskland før og efter den tyske genforening
Authors: Petersen Vibeke Rittmann
Published: August 2018

The reunification of Germany has occasioned a reconstruction of the former GDR. Several German scholars refer to a general process of modernization towards a modern society with a market economy, competitive democracy, mass consumption, and a welfare state. Various analyses, however, point to the fact that women stand to lose greatly in terms of unemployment, social status, income etc. If we compare the positions of women in East and in West Germany in relation to education, job market, and family, it appears that the women in East Germany had received a better education, and the percentage of women carrying out so-called men's work was higher. Their participation rate was very high, and the East German men attended to more family duties than did thair counterparts in West Germany. In consequence of the extensive social and cultural recontruction and reorganization of East Germany, these advantages are now decreasing. The women of East Germany are affected by unemployment surpassing the average rate, and they have great difficulty in regaining foothold in the job market once they have been dismissed. The phasing out of child-minding facilities and other state undertakings has made matters even worse. Further, women's poor position in the job market has impacted the work pattern in the home, where women are now taking care of a still growing number of duties. Finally, the risk of poverty is increasing for single mothers. The article concludes that the East German society may very well be going through a general process of modernization, but that it is equally important to note that this process has in fact had an anything but progressive influence on the lives of a larger group  of women; to them this has proved a process of "demodernization".
Moderskab og feminisme - Belyst ud fra enemorfamilien
Authors: Bak Maren
Published: August 2018

Feminism's relationship to maternity as a part of women's lives has been marked by ambivalence and doubt. Feminist analyses has concentrated on maternity as a sphere for socialpolitical intervention and on the cultural representations of motherhood. But maternity as part of almost every womans life and lived expericence has been seen by feminists as a major arena for patriarchal oppression and reproduction of traditional gender roles and therefore analysed with doubt and distrust. In the article I argue for the need for a feminist research on the phenomenology of maternity. The empirical investigation of family strategies and maternity in 25 Danish single mother families, carried out by the author, showed an example of maternity as a base for autonomy and selfdetermination. The single mothers emphasized that their children and their work was their basis in life. Maternity was a source of pride and empowement for the mothers. The possibility to make their own decisions regarding themselves and their children was mentioned as a major advantage. The single mother's experiences raise the question if maternity as autonomy and selfreliance is only possible outside two parent relationship. The author argues, that this is not the case, but the development of a nurturing fatherhood which takes repronsibility for nuturing values both in private life and in relationship to the labour market and social policy is a prerequisite.

At överskrida ras: En introduktion till begreppet transrasialitet speglad genom transrasiala erfarenheter och fantasier
Authors: Hübinette Tobia
Published: August 2018

To transcend race: An introduction to the concept of transraciality seen through transracial experiences and fantasiesThis article introduces the concept of transraciality based on the following questions: Is it possible to transgress race in a similar way as it is possible to transgress sex? How does the transracial experience look like and how does it differ from a transracial fantasy? Who is transracial, and is it the same to transracialise from non-white to white as from white to non-white? The article takes up the experiences of non-white adoptees and their identifications of being white and of white people who want to become non-white both in a colonial and in a postcolonial setting, and argues that it is the non-white to white race transgression which has the potential to transform a dichotomous and hierarchical racial structure.
Den uintenderede kønskrontol
Authors: Sløk-Andersen Beate
Published: August 2018

The unintended gender controlThrough a reconstellation of Judith Butlers ‘heterosexual matrix', this article explores how subtle everyday events in the Danish society work as (unintended) gender policing which participates in constituting transgendered citizens as non-human. This is done by regular comparisons of the citizen's registered ‘biological sex' with the citizen's apparent, ‘visible gender' e.g. in airports or at the doctor's office where one is required to show ID. If these two aspects of gender do not correlate in a way that is socially understandable (i.e. females being feminine, males being masculine), the citizen cannot be recognized. The consequence of a lacking recognition is not being recognized as human. Based on this thesis, transgendered citizens' unpleasant experiences in everyday life is explained as a consequence of a missing recognition; ";a site of power by which the human is differentially produced"; (Butler 2004: 2).
At queere tanken - Deleuze og de kommende køn
Authors: Løkkegaard Tue
Published: August 2018

Queering Thought - Deleuze and the sexes to come. This article argues that queer theory in relation to Judith Butler is unable to account for the complexities of life's creation and immanent potential that exist prior to and in between the hierarchical representations of discourses, language and subjects. This article seeks an opening and understanding of thought as creation, not representation. Through the philosophy of french philosopher Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995) thought is freed from its image and thereby activated in thinking. It is then possible to think and engage in life as becoming; life as consisting of virtual potentials, the alwaysnot-yet-actualised. The article proceeds by activating queer as a philosophical concept: ‘to queer' thus focusing on the ‘to do', not the ‘to be'; and analysing the queer-art-space Warehouse9 as a smooth space, where it is possible to encounter virtual sexes in concordance with sensible signs and aesthetic expressions.

Iscenesat affekt
Authors: Christiansen Signhild Linderoth
Published: August 2018

The performance Cry Me a River (2010) by Anna Mendelssohn is a solo about inner and outer climate catastrophes. The act of crying is central, and emotions are treated explicitly during the performance. When affect is presented this way, it affects the whole dramaturgy as well as the relationship between the audience and the work of art. In the article key terms of the affect theory by Sara Ahmed are applied in an analysis and a discussion of the performance. Affect appears as a cultural and relational phenomenon, and “thought”, “sensation” and “emotion” always exist simultaneously. The article suggests that critical affect theory offers theoretical tools for communicating about emotions in art. It also suggests and that affect theory is useful in the development of feminist theories concerning the encounter between audience/scientist and art, as it describes how emotions always emerge midway between subject and object, and always are related to structures of power.

"Vi kan jo ikke gå hen og voldtage en mand, vel?" Om seksualiserede overgrebspersonlige og kønnede betydninger
Authors: Pedersen Bodil
Published: August 2018

";We can't just rape a man right?"; - Gendered Personal Meanings of Sexualised Coercion. In mainstream psychological research, the experiences of women who have been subjected to sexualised coercion are frequently individualised and pathologised. But women's own perspectives indicate that personal meanings of coercion are reflected and changed in relation to their conduct of life. Their perspectives further our understanding of situated social reasons for changes in meanings attributed to - and actions related to - aspects of gender, sexualisation of appearance, and the conduct of intimacy and sexual life. They also point to the importance of further studies of the meanings of sexualised coercion.

Barn som relasjonspartnere: Diskurser om det kulturelt adekvate barnet
Authors: Ulvik Oddbjørg Skjær
Published: August 2018

Parental relationships are to a great extent theoretically naturalised, in psychology as well as in other social sciences. This article aims to analyse parental relationships as culturally and historically situated. The meaning of being a child and a responsible caregiver related to one another are negotiated in everyday life practices in continual care relationships between children and adults. Discourses of children and relationships are cultural tools for the participants of those practices. This paper will focus on adult expectations to children. The analysis is based on an interview study with adults and children living in foster families. In foster families, what is taken for granted in other families, will be more explicit. Thus, it is a strategic area to explore cultural meaning of adultchild relationships. The article elaborate “the discourse of the child with limited responsibility”, “the discourse of the child competent of reciprocity”, and “the discourse of the self constructing child”, discourses that are dynamically related.
Holddeling: Når der gøres maskulinitet og hvidhed
Authors: Kofoed Jette
Published: August 2018

This article follows a group of 13 year-old boys’ daily selection of football-teams in the schoolyard. The outcome of this repeated practice seems to be identical, i.e. the same teams are selected over and over again. Yet the boys repeat the ritual of selection. It is an empirical investigation based on a fieldwork in a 6th grade in a Copenhagen public school. The analytical focus is on how social categories such as whiteness, masculinity, and age intersect and how the intersection intertwines with other empirically relevant categories such as normality, pupilness, and (in)appropriatedness. Exploring this particular ritual of teamselection the taken-for-granted practices and understandings of teams and football among the schoolboys is explored. The analysis follows the lines of reasoning into practices of inclusion and exclusion and the relationships between the larger groups of pupils. This reading shows how understandings and practices from this particular ritual of selecting teams mingles into wider relationships and how the outcome of the ritual lends meaning to other social practices. A number of components interact in the daily processes of doing pupilness and in the analysis it becomes apparent that the requirements of appropriated pupilness can be met in a number of ways.

The article contextualizes the debate of customary laws in England into the Danish political landscape. The dilemma in the Danish debate is the lack of recognition of a much more diversified society composed of different cultural and religious groups. On the other hand it is necessary to maintain the constitution based on individual rights. The article proposes changes in the Constitution as to accept other cultural and religious minority groups.
