NNL Pod 2: Can we identify with regions like the Nordics or the Baltic Sea region?

Pan-national regions – like the Nordics or the Baltic Sea region - can give us an alternative perspective to the nation state. What are the benefits and challenges of these pan-national regions and have feelings of identity changed since the Russian invasion of Ukraine?This is the second of our podcasts for the New Nordic Lexicon where students get the chance to put questions to researchers. In this episode, students from Aarhus University, Chance Dorland and Sóley Eliasdottir, speak to Kazimierz Musiał from the University of Gdansk Scandinavian Studies and Finnish department and Alexander Drost from the Interdiscipliary Centre for Baltic Sea Region Research at Griefswald University in Germany.  This podcast was made possible by funding from the A.P. Moller Foundation.Sound credits: Summer by tictac9 from freesound.org.Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
