In European policy-making, the Nordic countries are often viewed as
a relatively coherent bloc; in international and European affairs
the Nordic position has traditionally been conditioned on being
different from and better than Europe. This book offers a coherent,
original and systematic comparative analysis of the relationship
between the Nordic countries and the European Union over the past
two decades. It looks at the historical frame, institutions and
policy areas, addressing both traditional EU areas such as
agriculture and more nascent areas affecting the domestic and
foreign policies of the Nordic countries. In doing so, it examines
how the Nordic approach to European policy-making has developed and
explains why the Nordic countries are similar in some respects
while differing in others when engaging with EU institutions. In
highlighting the similarities and differences between the Nordic
countries it explores what lessons - positive and negative - may be
drawn from this approach for the Nordic countries and other small
states. This book will be of interest to scholars, students and
practitioners engaged with the Nordic Countries, EU politics and
policy-making, European politics and comparative politics.
