Greenland's way to Self-Government

Beskrivelse

On June 21 2009, the 30th anniversary of Greenlandic Home Rule, the Act on Greenland Self-Government took effect. Greenland remains part of the Danish realm, but the Self-Government act recognizes the Greenlanders as a people according to international law. It makes Greenlandic the official language of Greenland, gives Greenland a say in international affairs, and expands Home Rule to 30 areas, including police, courts, and the coast guard. In her talk, Visiting professor Dr. Kirsten Thisted, university of Copenhagen, Denmark, will give an introduction to Greenland's modern history and the development that paved the way for Greenlandic Self-Government.
