Biography

Adam Veng is a PhD student at the University of Copenhagen, specializing in social anthropology. His research focuses on regional analytical specialization within the context of Denmark, particularly in cultural historical perceptions of active citizenship and civil society. He has conducted extensive ethnographic fieldwork among modern Danish pig farmers, exploring their community life and associational networks. Veng's current project examines the Danish model of resident democracy in social housing, analyzing how engagement and participation manifest in tenant-led initiatives. This research is grounded in long-term fieldwork within Copenhagen's housing estates, employing a case-study approach influenced by the Manchester School's anthropological principles. He draws from an eclectic theoretical framework that includes neoliberalism and citizenship studies to assess contemporary challenges and potentials for Danish resident democracy. His work aims to contribute to democratic urban development and enhance sustainability efforts in common housing sectors in Denmark.
