At the beginning of the twentieth century Scandinavia lay on the
margin of European power politics, but with the polarisation of
international relations in the era of the two world wars, Denmark,
Finland, Norway and Sweden became the point where the spheres of
influence of three great powers - Great Britain, Germany and Russia
- intersected. In this book, Patrick Salmon uses his extensive
research in British, German and Scandinavian archives to examine
the position of the Nordic countries in the great-power rivalries
and conflicts of the period 1890-1940. However, it does not treat
the Nordic countries merely as passive victims. It seeks to show
that, despite the disparity in strength between the great powers
and the small states of northern Europe, the latter had means of
adapting to great-power pressures and even influencing the policies
of their formidable neighbours.
