I've removed the section "political conditions" and rewritten the content, changed the title to "political forces". Nstenberg
[edit] Cabinet vs Government
I dont know if there is some sort of common consensus regarding the word cabinet. Denmark does not have a cabinet, but the word is still used to describe the the danish ministers as a group. Can something better be used?
- I believe government would be a more comprehensive / universal term, as there not is a distinction between cabinet and government in Danish. Bertilvidet 08:50, 28 March 2006 (UTC)

- I've just createt a page called Government of Denmark. It's inspired by Government of Sweden. I've put a link to the page in the Politics-of-Denmark template.
There is however a small "problem": First of all, there is a page called "Cabinets of Denmark", which has a list of previous governments. I was wondering if this title should be changed to List of Danish Governments etc. The term "cabinet" isn't good in this kind of encyclopedia. Nsteberg 28.juli, 2006.
[edit] Political inclination
Would it be wrong to note that the politics in Denmark are very incfluenced by the fact that we've had so many social democratic governments; Denmark is socialistically inclined... Ghent 15:24, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
- I don't see Socialdemokraterne in themselves as the cause of the welfare state - that would signify Denmark is unique compared to other Nordic countries in this respect - which it is not. I think the socialistic part of scandinavian culture allowed SD to transform the society - essentially to carry out the will of the (majority of the) people. The question is where this cultural trait came from in the first place. Gardar Rurak 12:05, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
