Today Razib talks to David  Gress, a Danish historian. The son of an American literary scholar and a Danish writer, he grew up in Denmark, read Classics at Cambridge, and then earned a Ph.D. in medieval history from Bryn Mawr College in the US in 1981. During a fellowship form 1982-1992 at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, he published on Cold‑War strategy, German political culture, and Nordic security. He has been a visiting fellow and lecturer at Gonville & Caius College, Cambridge, fellow at the Danish Institute of International Affairs, an assistant professor of Classics at Aarhus University, and professor of the history of civilization at Boston University. He co‑directed the Center for the Study of America and the West at the Foreign Policy Research Institute in Philadelphia and remains a senior fellow of the Danish free‑market think tank CEPOS while writing a regular column for Jyllands‑Posten. His breakthrough book, From Plato to NATO: The Idea of the West and Its Opponents (1998), argues that Western success sprang from a hard‑edged fusion of Roman order, Germanic liberty, Christian morality, and Smithian economics, rather than being a single disgraceful arc from Greco‑Roman‐paganism to secular Enlightenment that bypassed the Middle Ages. Razib asks Gress how he would have written Plato to NATO today, more than 25 years later, and he says he would have emphasized Christianity's role in creating a unified Western culture out of Greco-Roman and Germanic diversity more. Gress also reiterates that he does not deny the Greek foundation of Western Civilization, but rather, his work was a corrective to a very thin and excessively motivated and partisan narrative that stripped out vast periods of European history. They also discuss Gress' own own peculiar identity, the son of an American, born to a Danish mother, raised in Denmark who converted to Catholicism as an adult, and how that all fits into a broader European identity. They also discuss the impact of mass immigration on the national identities of Europe in the last generation, and Gress' opinions as to the European future. Razib also asks Gress about the role that evolutionary ideas may have in shaping human history, and how his own views may have changed since From Plato to NATO. They also discuss when it is plausible to say that the West was a coherent idea, and whether the Protestant Reformation was the beginning of the end for the unitary civilization that was Latin Christendom.

Transcript:Da: Solen skinnede lystigt over København, og Tivoli Gardens summede af liv.En: The sun shone cheerfully over København, and Tivoli Gardens hummed with life.Da: Det var sommer, og parken var fyldt med glade gæster.En: It was summer, and the park was filled with happy guests.Da: Søren stod ved indgangen, hans øjne strålede af spænding.En: Søren stood at the entrance, his eyes shining with excitement.Da: Dette var hans første besøg i Tivoli sammen med hans bedste ven, Kasper, og deres nye ven, Mette.En: This was his first visit to Tivoli with his best friend, Kasper, and their new friend, Mette.Da: Kasper kiggede bekymret på Søren.En: Kasper looked at Søren with concern.Da: "Husk nu, du skal være forsigtig med maden her," sagde han.En: "Remember, you have to be careful with the food here," he said.Da: Søren havde en alvorlig peanutallergi, men i al sin ivrighed nikkede han bare og stilede videre mod de spændende boder.En: Søren had a severe peanut allergy, but in all his eagerness, he just nodded and headed towards the exciting stalls.Da: Mette førte an med stor selvtillid.En: Mette led the way with great confidence.Da: Hun havde været i Tivoli mange gange før og elskede at vise sine yndlingssteder.En: She had been to Tivoli many times before and loved showing her favorite places.Da: "Lad os starte med Dæmonen!"En: "Let's start with Dæmonen!"Da: foreslog hun.En: she suggested.Da: Drengene var enige, og snart fløj de igennem luften, skrigene blev opslugt af lyden af alle de andre forlystelser.En: The boys agreed, and soon they were flying through the air, their screams swallowed up by the sound of all the other rides.Da: Efter et par ture begyndte Søren at føle sig sulten.En: After a few rides, Søren started feeling hungry.Da: Duften af vafler, grillede kødspyd og friskbagte brød trak ham mod madboderne.En: The smell of waffles, grilled meat skewers, and freshly baked bread drew him towards the food stalls.Da: "Jeg vil prøve noget nyt," erklærede han.En: "I want to try something new," he declared.Da: Kasper så på ham med et skeptisk blik.En: Kasper looked at him with a skeptical gaze.Da: "Er du sikker?En: "Are you sure?Da: Måske bør vi spørge hvad maden indeholder først?"En: Maybe we should ask what the food contains first?"Da: Men Søren, drevet af sin eventyrlyst, valgte en lokal specialitet fra boden.En: But Søren, driven by his adventurous spirit, chose a local specialty from the stall.Da: Han tog en stor bid, begejstret over at udforske noget nyt.En: He took a big bite, excited to explore something new.Da: Pludselig, midt i grinene, stoppede Søren op.En: Suddenly, in the midst of laughter, Søren stopped.Da: Hans hals begyndte at klø, og hans ansigt blev rødt.En: His throat started itching, and his face turned red.Da: "Jeg tror, der var peanuts i maden," sagde han med en svag stemme.En: "I think there were peanuts in the food," he said in a weak voice.Da: Panikken bredte sig hurtigt.En: Panic spread quickly.Da: Kasper greb sin telefon for at ringe efter hjælp, mens Mette skyndte sig at finde førstehjælpsstationen, hun vidste lå tæt på.En: Kasper grabbed his phone to call for help, while Mette rushed to find the first aid station, which she knew was nearby.Da: De var nær en af de travlere stier, og folk flyttede sig hurtigt til side, da Mette hastede forbi.En: They were close to one of the busier paths, and people quickly moved aside as Mette hurried past.Da: Paramedicinerne ved førstehjælpsstationen tog straks over.En: The paramedics at the first aid station immediately took over.Da: De gav Søren den medicin, han havde brug for, og snart begyndte hans vejrtrækning at stabilisere sig.En: They gave Søren the medication he needed, and soon his breathing began to stabilize.Da: "Søren, du skal være mere forsigtig næste gang," sagde Kasper.En: "Søren, you need to be more careful next time," said Kasper.Da: Hans stemme var mild, men fyldt med bekymring.En: His voice was gentle but filled with concern.Da: Søren nikkede, mens han langsomt genvandt kræfterne.En: Søren nodded as he slowly regained his strength.Da: "Jeg lover at lytte til dig fremover," svarede han.En: "I promise to listen to you from now on," he replied.Da: "Jeg har lært min lektie."En: "I've learned my lesson."Da: Da dagen gik på hæld, og solen begyndte at gå ned, sad de tre venner sammen på en bænk, lettet og taknemmelige.En: As the day came to an end, and the sun began to set, the three friends sat together on a bench, relieved and grateful.Da: Søren havde fået en vigtig lektion, og hans venskab med Kasper blev kun stærkere af oplevelsen.En: Søren had learned an important lesson, and his friendship with Kasper only grew stronger from the experience.Da: De blev enige om, at selvom Tivoli var fyldt med spænding, var det vigtigste trods alt at passe på hinanden.En: They agreed that although Tivoli was filled with excitement, the most important thing was to take care of each other.

Send us a textAbout 55% of outstanding US home mortgages have interest rates below 4% and a byproduct is that those homeowners are deeply reluctant to move because it would usually mean taking out a new mortgage at 6% or more.Enter Takara which says it has a way to resolve what it calls the mortgage lock in effect.On the show is Takara CEO Jonathan Arad who says the solution is to use a Danish-style mortgage payoff model to the U.S. market.This gives credit unions a way to offer principal discounts that unlock member mobility while creating new revenue opportunities and balance sheet flexibility.This is not hocus pocus.  But I'll let Arad explain it in the show.It's for you if you want to light a fire under your mortgage originations.It also may be for you if you currently have a 30 year fixed rate mortgage with a very low interest rate and that's stopping you from moving.Understand this: the 30 year fixed rate mortgage is a US product. It just isn't common around the globe. But yet mortgages and home purchases flourish globally.  Just maybe it's time for a change.Listen up.Like what you are hearing?

Transcript:Da: Tivoli Gardens summede af liv.En: Tivoli Gardens buzzed with life.Da: Det var en varm sommeraften, og luften var fyldt med duften af kandiserede mandler og lyden af glade grin.En: It was a warm summer evening, and the air was filled with the scent of candied almonds and the sound of happy laughter.Da: Farverne omkring var levende og næsten som i en drøm.En: The colors around were vivid and almost dream-like.Da: Mikkel og Freja gik side om side, lidt nervøse men spændte.En: Mikkel and Freja walked side by side, a little nervous but excited.Da: Mikkel havde haft en plan.En: Mikkel had a plan.Da: Han ville tage Freja med på den romantiske bådtur langs Tivoli Sø, måske vinde en bamse til hende i et spil og afslutte aftenen med is under stjernerne.En: He wanted to take Freja on a romantic boat ride along Tivoli Sø, maybe win her a teddy bear in a game and end the evening with ice cream under the stars.Da: Men Freja havde en anden ting i tankerne.En: But Freja had something else in mind.Da: Der var et mysterium, hun havde hørt om fra sin onkel.En: There was a mystery she had heard about from her uncle.Da: Noget mystisk var sket i Tivoli for år tilbage.En: Something mysterious had happened in Tivoli years ago.Da: "Har du hørt om den gamle skattejagt i Tivoli?"En: "Have you heard about the old treasure hunt in Tivoli?"Da: spurgte Freja pludseligt.En: Freja suddenly asked.Da: Mikkel kiggede på hende, lige dele forvirret og nysgerrig.En: Mikkel looked at her, equally confused and curious.Da: "Der skulle være en ledetråd gemt i den gamle labyrint," sagde hun med glitrende øjne.En: "There's supposed to be a clue hidden in the old maze," she said with sparkling eyes.Da: Mikkel tøvede.En: Mikkel hesitated.Da: Han ville så gerne imponere hende, og en skattejagt med en ukendt fare lød ikke som den perfekte date.En: He wanted so much to impress her, and a treasure hunt with unknown danger didn't sound like the perfect date.Da: Alligevel, Frejas entusiasme var smittende.En: Still, Freja's enthusiasm was contagious.Da: "Okay," sagde han til sidst.En: "Okay," he said finally.Da: "Lad os se, hvad vi kan finde."En: "Let's see what we can find."Da: De gik mod labyrinten.En: They headed toward the maze.Da: De snoede sig gennem de hækkevægge, og Freja studerede hvert hjørne og hver skygge.En: They wound through the hedge walls, and Freja studied every corner and every shadow.Da: Overalt omkring dem fortsatte Tivolis liv og glade lyde, men inde i labyrinten blev det hele lidt mere stille, lidt mere spændende.En: All around them, Tivoli's life and joyful sounds continued, but inside the maze, everything became a bit quieter, a bit more thrilling.Da: Pludselig stødte Freja ind i noget.En: Suddenly, Freja bumped into something.Da: Det var en lille trææske, halvt skjult i jorden.En: It was a small wooden box, half-buried in the ground.Da: Hun tog den op og åbnede låget.En: She picked it up and opened the lid.Da: Indeni lå et gammelt, falmet kort.En: Inside was an old, faded map.Da: "Dette må være det!"En: "This must be it!"Da: udbrød hun.En: she exclaimed.Da: Kortet viste en hemmelig rute til en skjult skat i hjertet af Tivoli.En: The map showed a secret route to a hidden treasure in the heart of Tivoli.Da: Mikkels hjerte bankede hurtigt.En: Mikkel's heart raced.Da: Dette var ikke, hvad han havde forventet, men deres jagt var spændende.En: This was not what he had expected, but their quest was exhilarating.Da: Han kunne mærke andrenalinet suse i hans krop.En: He could feel the adrenaline rushing through his body.Da: Han kiggede på Freja.En: He looked at Freja.Da: Hendes øjne strålede mere end nogensinde.En: Her eyes shone more brightly than ever.Da: "Skal vi?"En: "Shall we?"Da: spurgte han.En: he asked.Da: Freja nikkede begejstret.En: Freja nodded excitedly.Da: De fulgte kortet, der førte dem gennem de snævre stier og til sidst til en forsænket lysning, hvor en gammel kiste gemte på en håndfuld symbolske skatte – intet af monetær værdi, men fuld af eventyr og historie.En: They followed the map, which led them through the narrow paths and finally to a sunken clearing where an old chest hid a handful of symbolic treasures—nothing of monetary value, but full of adventure and history.Da: Aftenen endte ikke, som Mikkel havde planlagt, men eventyret bragte dem tættere sammen.En: The evening didn't end as Mikkel had planned, but the adventure brought them closer together.Da: Mikkel lærte at give slip på kontrol, omfavne det ukendte.En: Mikkel learned to let go of control, to embrace the unknown.Da: Freja fik smagen af eventyr, men hun indså også, hvor vigtigt det er at dele disse øjeblikke med nogen, der tænker på hende.En: Freja got a taste of adventure, but she also realized how important it is to share these moments with someone who cares about her.Da: Som de forlod Tivoli den nat, med de levende farver stadig glimtende bag dem, vidste begge, at de lige havde startet et nyt kapitel, sammen.En: As they left Tivoli that night, with the vivid colors still glimmering behind them, both knew they had just begun a new chapter, together.

At VivaTech in Paris, artificial intelligence is taking center stage, reshaping how global brands in fashion and beauty create, sell, and connect. An AI-powered scanner, developed in collaboration with Danish imaging specialists Rigsters and creative agency OKCC, captures detailed visuals that are transformed into highly realistic 3D models. These models are then processed using generative AI, with the aim to automate the creation of digital assets, enabling luxury brands to generate tailored content for online retail, advertising and social media, while remaining true to their brand identity. Louis Vuitton is part of the LVMH group, which stands for Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton and is one of the world's largest luxury goods groups. The French multinational owns more than 75 prestigious brands across fashion, jewelry, cosmetics, wines and spirits, including Dior, Bulgari, Fendi, Givenchy and Sephora. At its Bulgari stand, innovation is showcased again, but this time, focused on security and provenance. Displayed behind glass is the Serpenti Baroque necklace: a platinum showpiece set with eight baroque emeralds. A Bulgari smartphone app attempts to scan the necklace, but the protective screen, Bulgari says, gets in the way. Bulgari says the system strengthens the fight against counterfeiting and theft, which is a growing issue in the luxury market. Artificial intelligence is also aiming to support Bulgari staff behind the scenes. The brand has developed an internal AI assistant that helps teams communicate in line with the company's values and heritage. The AI chat tool provides instant access to Bulgari's internal knowledge base—from sustainability commitments to design history. For LVMH, artificial intelligence is a strategic investment aimed at protecting market share and driving performance in a rapidly evolving global luxury landscape. Across the exhibition floor, L'Oréal is taking a different approach, using AI to look beneath the surface of the skin. The company's Spotscan Plus tool uses microfluidic technology and artificial intelligence to analyze protein biomarkers that offer insights into a person's biological age and future skin health. It's a shift from traditional diagnostics, designed to offer consumers more personalized and scientifically grounded skincare routines without the need to see a specialist.

In today's podcast, we're heading slightly beyond the Tudor world — north to Scotland — to uncover the story of a young queen who deserves far more recognition than she gets. On this day in 1486, Queen Margaret of Denmark, consort of James III of Scotland, died at just 30 years old. But her brief life left a permanent mark on British history. Because of Margaret, Orkney and Shetland became — and remained — part of Scotland. A forgotten dowry, a pledged territory, and a queen who quietly changed the map of the British Isles. But there's so much more to her than diplomacy.  Join me as I delve into the fascinating story of Margaret of Denmark — her Danish roots, her turbulent royal marriage, her influence on Scottish politics, and the tragic mystery of her early death. Had you heard of Margaret before? What do you think of her impact? Let me know in the comments below!

stille ved sin ende af bordet.En: Lars sat silently at his end of the table.Da: Han følte det som om vægten af hele verden pressede på hans skuldre.En: He felt as though the weight of the whole world

This week, Scott sat down with fellow Senior Editors Molly Reynolds and Alan Rozenshtein to talk through the week's big national security news, including:“One Bill to rule them all, One Bill to find them, One Bill to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.” Republicans in Congress narrowly enacted President Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill” last week, just in advance of the July 4 deadline he had set early in the year. What will its contents mean for elements of Trump's national security agenda, including his immigration policies? And what does it say about his influence over fellow Republicans in Congress?“Even a Stopped Clock is Right More Often Than This Letter.” In response to a FOIA lawsuit, the Justice Department has released copies of the letters that it sent to tech companies regarding President Trump's pause on the enforcement of a statute intended to curtail TikTok's availability in the United States. In the letter, the Trump administration not only suggests that the law may unconstitutionally interfere with the president's authority over foreign affairs, but suggests that the president can “waive” the enforcement of civil penalties and otherwise commit not to enforce the law for certain periods of conduct. How persuasive are these legal arguments? And what explains tech companies' willingness to rely on them?“Nationwide, Not On Your Side.” At the end of its term last week, the Supreme Court issued a long-awaited decision in the birthright citizenship cases, wherein it sided with the Trump administration in ending the practice of “universal” (or nationwide) injunctions pursued by lower courts in many cases regarding challenges to government conduct. What with this holding mean, both for the birthright citizenship cases and for the broader legal system moving forward?In object lessons, Alan marveled at the majesty of Cranbrook Schools during a recent trip to Michigan. Scott's been here the whole time with a recommendation of Dropout TV's Game Changer. And Molly took us down a dark and dirty, Danish-derived, detective direction with Dept.

Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.Freedom wasn't granted—it was seized through blood, sweat, and unwavering resistance. Across the Dutch and Danish Caribbean colonies, enslaved Africans fought against brutal systems of oppression that are often overshadowed in mainstream historical narratives focused on British, Spanish, and French colonial powers.When thousands gathered in St. Croix on July 2nd, 1848, led by freedom fighter General Buddhoe (Moses Gottlieb), they weren't asking politely for their liberation. They threatened to burn Frederiksted to the ground, forcing the Danish governor to declare immediate emancipation. This powerful act of collective resistance is why July 3rd remains sacred in the U.S. Virgin Islands, commemorated through Freedom Week celebrations that honor ancestral sacrifice and triumph.Meanwhile, in the Dutch Caribbean territories like Suriname, Curaçao, and Aruba, emancipation arrived decades later in 1863—and even then with the cruel stipulation that the formerly enslaved would be required to work an additional decade on the plantations where they had suffered. This delayed freedom, finally realized in 1873, is now celebrated as "Keti Koti" (the chain is broken), a powerful testament to resilience against Dutch colonial brutality. The colonial footprints of the Netherlands and Denmark—alongside brief periods of Swedish and Portuguese occupation—remain etched in Caribbean legal systems, languages, demographics, and collective consciousness. By amplifying these overlooked histories, we honor the full spectrum of Caribbean resistance and recognize that every Emancipation Day represents a hard-won victory by those who refused to accept bondage as their fate. Our ancestors' struggle for dignity continues to illuminate our path forward.Support the showConnect with Strictly Facts - Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube | Website Looking to read more about the topics covered in this episode?

herinde."En: I think there's a story here."Da: Planen om fred begyndte at brydes.En: The plan for peace began to break.Da: Niels tøvede.En: Niels hesitated.Da: Han ville have ro, men lige der, i

svar.En: The two ventured into the forest to find answers.Da: Med hver krok og afkrog afsløredes stykket artifacts historie mere og mere.En: With each nook and cranny, the artifact's history was revealed more and more.Da: De opdagede, at det stammede fra en gammel bornholmsk tradition, som tidligere havde samlet folk i fest og fællesskab.En: They discovered that it originated from an old Bornholm tradition, which had previously gathered people in celebration and community.Da: Med hvert trin, følte Niels en fornyet forbindelse til både sig selv og omgivelserne.En: With each step, Niels felt a renewed connection to both himself and his surroundings.Da: Endelig, efter en hel dag i skoven, satte de sig sammen med de andre deltagere, og delte deres fund.En: Finally, after a whole day in the forest, they sat together with the other participants and shared their findings.Da: Det, der engang var en kilde til forstyrrelse for Niels, blev nu en vej til indsigt.En: What had once been a source of disturbance for Niels became a path to insight.Da: Han følte en ro ved at forstå, at fred ikke altid betød stilhed, men også kom fra forbindelse og opdagelse.En: He felt a peace in

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:  First—a Danish national of Afghan origin has been arrested on suspicion of spying on behalf of the Iranian regime, collecting information on Jewish sites and prominent individuals in Germany in preparation for potential terror attacks. Later in the show—despite Moscow's largely stalled summer offensive, a Kremlin-backed official is claiming that Russian forces have now seized complete control of Ukraine's eastern Luhansk region, which would mark Russia's first complete regional occupation since the full-scale invasion began more than three years ago.
