This paper presents an overview of the policies and decisions which have resulted in the current research infrastructure landscape in Denmark within the humanities; and it describes individual initiatives and how they fit into the landscape.
The landscape was fragmented; and it still is to a degree; but one key factor has played a determining role in shaping it into what it is today: the European strategic processes and policies following from the development of the European Research Area; and the ESFRI (European Strategic Forum for Research Infrastructure) process; which has been adopted by Danish policy and decision makers. The strategies and priorities based on the European ESFRI process has resulted in funding of Danish research infrastructure (RI) initiatives within the humanities in the last 5-6 years; such that we can now define a landscape with national; Nordic and European collaboration and networking; extended into the social sciences community as well.
The list of initiatives is comprehensive: CLARIN; META-NORD; META-NET; DARIAH; DASISH; CLARA; ASTIN; DIGHUMLAB; DIGDAG; LARM.
