As we have observed, although wokeness is making some inroads in Danish academia, it meets resistance in broader society. No one wants to defund the police except the far-left Red-Green party, which has advocated its abolition for decades. Danish institutions aren’t insensitive to social injustice, but they usually take a moderate stance on identity politics and grievance issues. A good example is the guidelines on transgender athletes presented by the Danish Sports Confederation in December.
