Abstract: The paper makes a brief presentation of selected research in the field of space, economy and the environment, as of 1998. The paper first reviews the reasons for strong Danish interest in these issues. Then, spatial issues are reviewed and Danish studies presented. In particular, distinction is made between environment-economy models as pre-models which treat environmental change and regulation as an input to models of the regional economy and post-models, which treat environmental change as a consequence of changes in regional economies and integrated approaches.

Keywords: Danish studies of space; the economy and the environment; Danish economy-environmental modelling; Denmark.
