In 2007, the Danish Government set up a Committee to draw up a democracy canon, containing what the Committee believed to be key events, trends and political texts that have played an important role in the development of democracy in Denmark. This is the Committee's report, identifying 35 canon items as key landmarks in the long evolutionary history of the country's democracy. Intended as a source of inspiration and understanding of the pre-conditions for modern democracy in Denmark. Slim 4to.
