What are the long-term consequences of colonialism in the Nordic countries? What are the different patterns of the denial, repression, Vergangenheitsbewältigung and legitimization in the different countries or regions? And is it possible, or desirable, to talk of a characteristically Nordic legacy of colonialism?
