'Norwegian Catch-Up' looks at the early Norwegian economic
trajectory in the light of its external commitments and
opportunities. Detailing Norway's economic performance relative to
other countries at a time characterized by globalization, it has a
particular focus on the role of international trade, investment and
migration. The book examines how a small open state adapted
successfully to the demands of (and opportunities provided by) a
global market place. Not only did Norway manage an impressive
economic record, but it developed concomitantly a strong and
articulate labor movement and resilient democratic institutions. In
short, the Norwegian example provides hope for development in a
context of globalization. This text provides the student with a
pioneering new vantage point for understanding the nature and scope
of today's globalization and its effect on economic (and political)
development. It also provides a historical reflection on the
liberal antecedent of modern social democracy.
