The Global History Network of the Oldenburg Monarchy is an informal network of scholars interested in the global history of the former conglomorate state ruled by the king in Copenhagen until the end of the Oldenburg dynasty in 1848.

This includes Denmark, Norway, Schleswig, Holstein, Iceland, Greenland, Tranquebar & Serampore in India, the Gold Coast, the Danish West Indies, the Faroe Islands, Oldenburg, Delmenhorst and more. The overall topic is global history, which naturally includes business history, maritime history, cultural history and more.

The aim of the network is to share knowledge of new publications, conferences, online resources etc and in the long run begin a series of semiannual conferences about the shared topic in relevant locations around the world.

The members are so far:

  • Benjamin Asmussen, PhD & curator of the Maritime Museum of Denmark
  • Aske Laursen Brock, PhD & Postdoc Fellow, Centre for the Political Economies of International Commerce, University of Kent
  • Vibe Maria Martens, PhD
