Abstract: Abstract In preparation for this book, two scholars who have both spent considerable time and energy delving into the concept of hygge came together to have a conversation about this supposedly unique Danish concept that has recently caught the global public’s imagination. Lounging in one chair was Jeppe Linnet, a Danish anthropologist with a Ph. D. in the area of consumer culture theory, specifically focusing on hygge. In the other chair was Jonathan Bean, an American who also focused his doctoral work on hygge and whose recent work connects taste, design and consumption.
