1. ¿Cómo logra Dinamarca el desempleo tan bajo en el 2008?
El desempleo en Dinamarca se logra a través de políticas fiscales prudentes que iban en beneficio de promover el desarrollo de la infraestructura y legislación laboral que reformaba el marco laboral donde el gobierno, el empresariado y los sindicatos contribuían todos para el desarrollo y beneficio de la sociedad danesa. No fue un cambio de corto plazo sino fue un cambio de que se inició muchos años atrás y donde el enfoque de todos los ciudadanos era el de formar una sociedad de bienestar pero que sea sostenible en el tiempo. 2.1 Explique las causas del éxito del modelo de Dinamarca.
La principal causa del éxito del modelo de Dinamarca para obtener un desempleo tan bajo es la utilización del modelo de flexiseguridad. Según el portal web ABC.es (2012) la actual primer danesa Thorning-Schmidt indicó en la reunión en Copenhague que el modelo que combina flexibilidad y seguridad es un sistema que ayuda a reducir el desempleo crónico en países como España. En la sociedad danesa la fórmula es bastante sencilla, es muy fácil contratar y despedir lo que facilita la movilidad y capacidad de adaptación para los empresarios. El empresariado cuando desea despedir a un trabajador le da tres meses para buscar un nuevo trabajo y no recibe ninguna indemnización. Durante este plazo el gobierno conjuntamente con la empresa ofrecen cursos de capacitación y de reincorporación al sistema laboral, en caso el trabajador no logre conseguir trabajo el gobierno con el empresariado subsidian a través de un bono de desempleo a los trabajadores desempleados. El gobierno ha creado un conjunto de estímulos fiscales en impuestos donde promueve la inversión de determinados sectores y a los sectores que más deterioran el medio ambiente aplica un impuesto mayor.
En conclusión las causas del éxito del modelo danés netamente se debe a la relación estrecha entre todos los actores del mercado, el empresariado tiene la flexibilidad para contratar y despedir sin ningún inconveniente por lo que no tiene miedo a contratar, el gobierno ayuda subsidiando a los trabajadores desempleados y ofrece un bienestar social para todos sus ciudadanos, los sindicatos y los trabajadores se sienten en la libertad de no tener miedo a ser despedidos ya que es cuestión rutinaria el cambio de trabajo. 2. ¿Debería Dinamarca apostar por una mayor integración con las políticas de la Unión Europea y el Euro, continuando una política de balance muy fina entre autonomía e integración o debería forjar su propio camino?
Debería apostar por la integración ante la Unión Europea porque cuenta con buenas estrategias para seguir con beneficios de la globalización. Tiene un mercado laboral flexible en conjunto con un estado de bienestar que tiene un seguro salarial muy elevado, tiene una de las economías más sólidas con un nivel de desempleo muy bajo, dando lugar a que los daneses se sientan a gusto de trabajar en el país. El sector público también muestra solidez financiera, encabezando las primeras posiciones sobre competitividad, el pueblo danés posee una democracia muy marcada apostando siempre por el derecho personal a la libertad.
Dinamarca a lo largo de los años ha demostrado independencia y prosperidad bajo sus propios lineamientos, por ejemplo al mantener su moneda lo cual le permite controlar su economía. Dinamarca debería mantener su política de acuerdo a como le ha ido dando frutos, actualmente las economías europeas están atravesando un problema serio al no poder aplicar políticas económicas para salvar sus economías. Dinamarca debería mantener su propio camino pero no desligarse de sus principales socios comerciales que son la Unión Europea para lo cual debe seguir perteneciendo pero bajos sus condiciones. 3.2 ¿Qué rol juega la inmigración a este fenómeno?

Los inmigrantes fueron la base fundamental para el desarrollo de este modelo de globalización y bienestar social, los investigadores calificaron a Dinamarca como un país próspero para los negocios y se convirtió en un atractivo país para los emigrantes, gracias a la bonanza de las políticas fiscales y llegando a dar refugio a personas de países en desarrollo, llegando a depender de los inmigrantes para cubrir puestos de trabajo.
La adaptación a la globalización implica necesariamente que los daneses tengan que ceder en base a sus políticas de inmigración, lo que determinaría que mayor número de personas tengan acceso a los programas sociales y muchos daneses pueden ver con malos ojos que sus impuestos se empiecen a gastar en nuevas personas a lo cual no tenían derecho bajo las normas actuales. 3.3 ¿Qué problemas culturales educativos, políticos y sociales concurren con la inmigración turca y de musulmanes en general.
La inmigración turca y musulmana esta generando una subcultura dentro de la cultura danesa la cual trata de instaurar su cultura por encima de la danesa, los musulmanes y los turcos culturalmente tienen culturalmente muchas diferencias con la cultura danesa, la cual promueve la democracia, la igualdad de géneros, la libertad de expresión y diferentes derechos liberales que se han ido adoptando a lo largo de los años, esto genera un problema social, político muy fuerte dado que muchas libertades de los daneses se ven menguados con lo que los musulmanes piensan que son sus libertades. Por el otro lado si Dinamarca quiere adaptarse a un mundo globalizado necesita adaptar su cultura para poder integrarse con los musulmanes y turcos y poder llevar nuevamente su aspecto social al equilibrio que ha venido teniendo a lo largo de los años. 3.4 ¿De qué manera esta inmigración musulmana afectará la fortaleza de la economía Danesa y su perspectiva en una economía global?
Depende de la conducta que el gobierno quiera establecer en función de la política migratoria que quiera aplicar, si es muy restrictivo en cuanto a su política perdería la oportunidad de integrarse a un mundo cada vez más globalizado y esta mano de obra específica que necesita Dinamarca para seguir manteniendo su sociedad de bienestar se podría ver afectada. En caso su política migratoria sea muy flexible existe la posibilidad que el gasto social sea muy elevado y tenga que reducir la sociedad de bienestar que tiene por tener que dar acceso a un mayor número de personas.
Lo mejor es mantener una política migratoria que mantenga lo que Dinamarca necesita para seguir manteniendo su sociedad de bienestar pero que no genere un gasto excesivo ni tampoco la creación de subculturas que desvirtúen la cultura danesa que se ha adoptado a lo largo de los años. 3. ¿Está Dinamarca creciendo debido a o a pesar del estado de bienestar?
Su crecimiento sigue todavía latente, a partir de la crisis del 2008 se nota que existe una disminución de este crecimiento al igual que los demás países en el resto del mundo, pero esta economía no se ha visto igualmente afectada dadas las políticas que se han instaurado lo cual integra a todos los actores del mercado y esta flexibilidad que goza todo el pueblo danés le permite mantener su sociedad de bienestar.
Dinamarca si no tuviera el estado de bienestar no hubiera podido mantener su crecimiento, dado que la flexiseguridad le ha permitido mantener un empresariado que tiene la flexibilidad de contratar y despedir, además le permite negociar con el trabajador todos los beneficios que tiene. El trabajador se siente con seguridad de no quedarse desamparado por el gobierno y que dada la capacitación que tiene el desempleo es algo rutinario. 4.5 ¿De qué manera el capitalismo global y la globalización son parte fundamental del modelo Danés?
El capitalismo global y la globalización son el pilar del modelo danés dado que sin el empresariado y sin poder proveer de servicios al resto del mundo que son sus compradores dado que el principal producto que posee Dinamarca es el desarrollo de tecnología la cual se aplica no sólo en Dinamarca sino en el resto del mundo. Esto ha generado que muchas empresas se concentren en Dinamarca donde pueden desarrollar este conocimiento y es por eso que este capitalismo global es el que da los ingresos para la sociedad del bienestar del gobierno danés.
La globalización le ha permitido a Dinamarca que pueda ofrecer al mundo sus servicios y que sea una economía que pueda ofrecer lo que el mercado requiere y esto a la vez trae más trabajo y desarrollo de la sociedad danesa. 4.6 En última instancia cuánto de Estado de Bienestar y cuánto de globalización adoptó el modelo Danés?
La sociedad danesa inicialmente optó por el Estado de Bienestar pero este no era sostenible en el tiempo dado que la globalización es la que provee de mayores ingresos y que este estado sea sostenible en el tiempo, por lo que adoptó un estado de equilibrio por el cual el estado de bienestar es para todos los trabajadores pero cada uno de ellos sabe su rol dentro de la economía, por el que tienen el derecho a ser protegidos por el estado pero tienen la obligación de responder a las necesidades del mercado, es decir el empresariado que si está globalizado requiere de personal altamente calificado y esto lo provee el gobierno al promover políticas educativas de acorde a lo que el empresariado esta buscando.

4. Conclusiones. En síntesis, ¿Estado de bienestar o Globalización? ¿qué elegiría la sociedad Danesa?
Un equilibrio entre los dos, el estado de bienestar requiere un mayor compromiso de estado en el que se compromete a mantener los requerimientos del mercado para poder seguir su desempeño en el largo plazo, la globalización requiere que Dinamarca sea aún mucho más flexible y que siga a la altura de lo que ha venido demostrando en la actualidad por lo que es necesario que Dinamarca tenga políticas migratorias que sean más flexibles pero que no dañen la cultura danesa.
La sociedad danesa se tiene que adaptar a este nuevo cambio, el equilibrio entre el estado de bienestar que es lo que mantiene a la población danesa con todas las flexibilidades que ha demostrado hasta el momento, mientras que la globalización le va a permitir desarrollar aún mas esas habilidades y capacidades que piensan desarrollar.

Denmark: Globalization and the Welfare State

Danska je, zaradi kombinacije visoko socialne države, efektivnega javnega sektorja in uspešnega privatnega sektorja nodi uspešno okolje za razvoj podjetništva, privlači tujo delovno silo in podjetja. Lahko tudi rečemo, da so visoki davki, ki zagotavljajo visoko socialno varnost, prinesli srečo in uspešnost. Tako je the Econimist Intelligence Unit v letu 2007 proglasil Dansko za najboljše mesto na svetu, ki je primerno za uspešno poslovanje (ena od držav, kjer je najlažje začeti nov posel), v letu 2008 pa je mednarodna raziskava pokazala, da so Danci najsrečnejši ljudje na svetu. Več kot 60% jih za sebe lahko reče, da so zelo zadovoljni z svojim življenjem. Tako jim recimo pripada 25 dni dopusta na leto in 37 urni delovni teden. 2. How did Denmark achieve 3% unemployment in 2008? V sredini 80'h ter v začetku 90'h let je mednarodna konkurenca privedla Dansko do povečanja nezaposlenosti, Danska vlada je v tem času močno povečala socialne izdatke, da je pokrila povečano nezaposlenost, zgodnje upokojitve .. itd. Potrebna je bila nova strategija, ki jo je uvedel Paul Nyrup Rasmussen, tako imenovana »flexicurity«. S to reformo so hoteli doseči bolj prilagodljivo ekonomijo brez rezanja socialnih ugodnosti. Tako so dali podjetjem možnost hitrega odpuščanja zaposlenih...

Denmark Case

...System in Denmark The Economic System in Denmark The current controversies that have developed in the welfare state of Denmark have been a concern throughout the world. As political systems shift, there have been questions as to the rise of unemployment, the sustainability of the country due to strict immigration laws, and the increase of discrimination cases. Having the responsibility to sustain the cost of its growing population through high taxes, while entering into a recession, the country had to “enhance adaptability” (Daemmrich & Kramarz 2010) and change the traditional method of assistances. Through the demographic shift of immigrants and refugees the political issue remained prominent, while this climate was based on immigrants not adopting the Danish value system and identity while integrating into Denmark. The economic changes across the globe have had an effect on the control of industrialization and the workforce in the country, as the business world becomes smarter by reducing costs through crossing borders. It has a negative impact on the policies for the welfare state and has raised the unemployment rates. “With the decrease of regulatory barriers in foreign nations, the economies have transformed increasing competition and welcoming foreign investment” (Hill 2005). Due to the current structure and lack of political momentum for reform, the spending on social protection grew exponentially. Recognizing the increased competition due to globalization, and...

Sweden and New Age of Globalization

...Sweden and new age of globalization In the last recent years, world trade had an outstanding growth in domestic product leading to spread more about the word ’’globalization’’. However, the new market’s demand is reason of this development, yet the trade practices reduction that prevent movement of services from one state to another thru World Trade Organization (WTO) had an important impact on this growth in world (Christopher, 2011). In the start, globalization recognized as a solution to insufficiency and assistance to overcome the inadequacy, however, this view has changed after the US Presidential election speech in 2008 and globalization became a concern for both the U.S and Europe stated (Mandelson, 2008). Therefore, challenging those who state that ‘’the boom is not sustainable’’ is what Mandelson attempted to deliver. So in this paper I’m going to evaluate the globalization’s effect on Sweden’s economy & industry and will compare the achievement with Mandelson’s view. Let’s start with he’s opinion on Europe’s social models which are considerably well managed and in favor of globalization compared to the models from the states. Over the last decades, Europe attempted to come up with new social and economic model in order to handle the challenges exposed by the globalization. And one of the countries which could cope successfully with globalization challenges was Sweden by proposing ‘’Swedish model’’. This model defines that ‘’ it is perfectly possible to uphold and...

Hamlet

...poisoning through the ear in hamlet Hamlet is a drama that tells the story of a bewildered young prince, a thinker who must contend with vengeful impulses riled by his father's ghost and subsequently by the prince's own agonized sensibility to the decorum of revenge. Shakespeare manages to induce Hamlet's sensibilities in many ways, not the least of which is the "poison in the ear" motif that courses the length of the drama. Indeed, in Act 1 Scene 5 Shakespeare introduces the literal act of Claudius pouring poison into the "porches" of old King Hamlet's ear, as related to the prince by old Hamlet's ghost. But the extent to which ear­poisoning plays a role in the play is, at the juncture of Act 1.5, only beginning to take root. Even in Act 1.4, before the truth of King Hamlet's death is ever known or even suggested by the play's action, Shakespeare alludes to the overwhelming power of envenomed sound and poisonous aural suggestion. Likewise in the following 2.1, Shakespeare subtly elaborates on the motif, which, once given its literal form in Act 1.5, is only in its infancy, though by the drama's conclusion it's structurally crucial has been made increasingly apparent. In Act 1.4 the Ghost makes its second appearance in the play, though it is the first time Hamlet has witnessed him. Besides furthering the plot, Act 1.4 also serves as a prelude to the pivotal 1.5 wherein the Ghost reveals to Hamlet the secret that rules the action of the remainder of the play­the murderous deed...

"The Ugly Duckling" and Standards of Beauty Today

...“The Ugly Duckling” and Standards of Beauty Today Jennifer Murrish Kaplan University HU300-01RP682 “The Ugly Duckling” and Standards of Beauty Today Of all the stories I have heard throughout the years there is one that I can think of which really stands out in my mind. The story I chose is, “The Ugly Duckling” by Hans Christian Anderson, first published in Denmark, November 11, 1843. This story has an amazing moral and always tends to make me emotional every time I hear it, and has touched my heart since the first time I heard it when I was a child. Even though this story was published close to 170 years ago the concept is one that is still an issue within our society today. Gender roles can be described as, “the way acceptable male and female behavior and functions are defined in a given culture,” (Janaro, Altshuler, 2012); so many young people, both male and female, struggle with the image they are “supposed” to uphold much due to society’s stereotypical acceptations of what beauty is supposed to be, they can lose sight of what is truly more important than superficial appearance. Anderson’s story starts off describing the setting which is an old farm next to a lake amongst the forest trees. Within the old farm’s overgrown reeds a mother duck is sitting on her eggs getting ready for them to hatch. Finally the day comes and all the babies emerge from their shells and are ready to live, all the eggs except the largest egg of the bunch which had no signs of movement...

In fact, if we start with Nationalism, many theorists tried to counteract the three paradoxes this concept bring : objective modernity vs. subjective antiquity, socio-cultural concept vs. concrete manifestations and 'political' power vs. philosophical poverty.

The Inevitable Tensions Between the Individual and Society Are the Foundations for the Most Engaging Moments in Hamlet.

...individual and society are the foundations for the most engaging moments in Hamlet. Consider YOUR understanding of Hamlet and how this statement affirms or challenges YOUR response to the play. The most engaging moments within Hamlet have been founded by the inevitable tensions encountered between the individual and society. Hamlet explores the tragic consequences of attempting to unite the two opposing forces of personal morality and societal corruption. The deception and political corruption within Denmark has detrimental effects upon an individual’s sense of self. Due to the corruption of the society around him, Hamlet’s values of integrity, loyalty, trust and honesty are destabilised, thus showing the vulnerability of the human character. Hamlet is a universal play as it transcends through both time and context with Hamlet resinating with modern audiences due to Hamlet’s confusion, he faces a struggle when asserting his morality against the disease and deceit inherent in Denmark. Shakespeare’s exploration of Hamlet’s consciousness of his own mortality and questions of his identity haunting him throughout the play lead to his inevitable death at the closing of the play. Hamlet’s loss of identity is due to his mother’s incestuous relationship with Claudius and also by the death of his father, a man he saw as an idol, with his distress and grief being demonstrated through his actions and the response of characters towards his actions. Hamlet explains to Claudius and Gertrude “together...

More importantly, his works accurately reflect the period when people in the lower class, especially workers had experienced the oppression of the upper class and reveal the beginning of socialist movement in European countries in the early nineteenth century. “Martin Andersen Nexo was born in Copenhagen on 26 June 1869” (Ingwersen, 1) . As a communist writer, he devoted his whole life in the career of socialism and to spread communist ideology in those countries, he wrote many literature works depicting the labor movement in Scandinavian countries, especially Denmark. As an adamant opponent of Fascism and Nazism, Nexo was temporarily detained from the German Army and eventually realeased. He experienced many turmoils and finally moved to East Germany and passed away with the East German’s citizen honor.

In consecutive quarters in 2004, the plant had outperformed the company’s longer established Danish production units in quality levels (see Exhibit 1). Rasmussen had been the Tatabánya plant’s manager, its first, since 2001. Just three and a half years later, he was responsible for the daily management of a plant with a head count of 550 and production valued at 1.5 billion Danish kroner (DKK). In 2005, he resumed his position as director of Coloplast’s Danish subsidiary and returned to Denmark. With the Hungarian operation, Coloplast had learned important lessons in designing and implementing a relocation process, and in managing the communication involved. Although Coloplast had some minor production facilities outside of Denmark, the scope of its involvement in Hungary was unparalleled. When the expansion was completed, the Hungarian unit would employ 900 staff — roughly 15 per cent of the company’s total workforce. Coloplast’s involvement in Tatabánya was part of the...
