Abstract: This article describes how the interaction between the state and the social partners in Denmark has developed in four welfare-related policy areas (pensions, activation, continuous training, and maternity/paternity leave) and to what extent the interaction has led to corporatist arrangements. It is argued, first, that corporatism continues to play a role in Danish labour market and welfare state regulation, mostly in the form of ad hoc agreements on policy formulation and permanent involvement in implementation within specific policy areas and, secondly, that the ‘grey zone’, where the division of responsibilities between state and social partners is unclear, has been extended. The state and the social partners therefore have to define a new division of responsibilities.
