How to Become Danish in Germany: Identity Without Borders in Schleswig
This video explores a groundbreaking study by cultural anthropologist Levke Bittlinger on the Danish minority in Schleswig, Germany. Discover how identity is built not on blood or language, but on personal choice—the 'Bekenntnisprinzip.' Through 19 hours of interviews and deep fieldwork, Bittlinger reveals how this unique group constantly recreates their sense of belonging through schools, clubs, and symbols. Watch to understand the paradox of identity in a zero-conflict zone, and what it means for integration today.
