Scandinavian countries are routinely considered exceptional for
their commitment to development cooperation, peace mediation, and
humanitarian action. This book highlights how the political culture
of Scandinavia is indeed characterized by the idea of doing good on
the world stage, but then shows how this 'Scandinavian humanitarian
brand' is an asset that policymakers and others can capitalize on
to legitimize policy interventions and ideas, or to advance
commercial, diplomatic, and security interests. Providing case
studies from all Scandinavian countries, this book shows how the
brand is made, reinforced, and used in a variety of policy
contexts, from foreign aid and humanitarian assistance; to military
operations, peace-building, and mediation; to migration policy,
global health, and international cooperation. A key objective of
the book is to explain why the Scandinavian humanitarian brand
retains such apparent resilience in a time when Scandinavia's
characteristic approach to world affairs seems challenged from many
sides at once. This title is also available as Open Access on
Cambridge Core.
