This is the only comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the
political economy of the five Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland,
Iceland, Norway, and Sweden). Five studies have been written within
a project, and are based on thorough discussions on a common
framework within which the distinct features of the economic
policies of each separate country are analysed in a comparative
perspective. The studies are accompanied by an extensive
comparative discussion - written collectively by the members of the
project team - that locates the Nordic model(s) within the wider
map of capitalist varieties in the contemporary Western world. This
book emphasizes the variety of experiences within the Nordic realm,
from the dramatic collapse of Iceland's economy as the financial
bubble burst in 2008 to the full-employment oil-economy of Norway
that proved virtually unaffected by the financial instabilities of
2008. It also identifies certain common transformations
(particularly linked to the politics of immigration and
integration, the persistent role of the unions, and new
opportunities created by national systems of innovation).
