 Dr. Pappnam, you are a professor at Harvard University, but the next two years you will always also be a visiting distinguished professor at Ohush University. What do you hope you will get out of this new collaboration between you and Ohush University? I'm looking forward to exchanging ideas and exchanging experiences with the scholars and students at Ohush. My research, my own research, has been basically focused on changing developments in American society, big social changes. Denmark is a quite different kind of laboratory, social laboratory, because it's of course much smaller, more homogeneous in many respects. It has characterized by the Scandinavian type of welfare state. And therefore I'm interested to see in what respects the developments in America have similar counterparts here in Denmark are quite different. It's like trying old familiar experiments, but in a new and exciting laboratory. But why Denmark? Why Danish university? Well, frankly partly because Danish university asked me. But the reason I accept it, as I say, is because Denmark is marked as a really quite unusual place. It's the happiest country in the world, as you know. It's at very high levels of what I call social capital, that is social trust, social cohesion. And in that respect it's especially interesting, it's an especially interesting laboratory. And your work on social capital and social cohesion is often referred to in the Danish political debate, especially your best selling book, Falling Alone. And how would you like to impact the Danish debate during the next two years, where you are a distinguished professor at Ohush University? Well I want to be careful because I'm not at all an expert on Denmark. I'm here mainly to learn about Denmark, not to advise people in Denmark. I think it is true in Denmark as in the United States that the character and the intensity and the depth and the vitality of ties among us is a very important characteristic of a society. I think the whole idea of social capital is the idea that connections among us have very powerful effects. They have effects on our physical health, they have effects on the health of our communities, they have effects on crime, economic growth, education and so on. And so I suppose I hope to be able to convey to Danish leaders the importance of social capital and then the ways in which that can be either, social capital can be either enhanced or put at risk. You have been in Ohush now for a couple of days and in Copenhagen as well. What is your first impression? I suppose the first impression of any, especially any progressive American, is that they seem to have come to paradise in which everything seems to work well and the streets are clean and the people are friendly and the first impression, of course, is that there seem to be no problems at all either at the university here or in the country as a whole. Of course I'm aware that's not true. There are also real challenges here and some of the challenges that are facing Ohush as a city and Denmark as a country are not unfamiliar to Americans. I'm thinking, for example, of the challenges of living with ethnic diversity, managing the challenges of immigration and so on. And I'm very interested to learn more about that. You say the word paradise, but if you only have three words to describe Ohush, what would that be? Efficient, rainy and lovely. So you say rainy, efficient and lovely. And do you think that image will last during your two years in Ohush? I'm hoping to modify the rainy image to get a sense that also it's sunny here. Today is a lovely day, but we did experience a couple of days of rain. I'm certain that it will continue to be efficient. Everything I, all the dealings I've had with my colleagues here and the university administration have been very encouraging. And perhaps I'll add to that, friendly. I'm just beginning to make friends here, but I'll have the opportunity over these two years to develop deeper personal friendships. We at Ohush University, we look very much forward to having you here and we will make sure that you will not be falling alone. Thank you very much. Thank you.
