With its focus on the popular television genre of Nordic noir, this
book examines subtle and explicit manifestations of geopolitics in
crime series from Scandinavia and Finland, as well as the impact of
such programmes on how northern Europe is viewed around the world.
Drawing on a diverse set of literature, from screen studies to
critical International Relations, Geopolitics, Northern Europe, and
Nordic Noir addresses the fraught geopolitical content of Nordic
television series, as well as how Nordic noir as a genre travels
the globe. With empirical chapters focusing on the interlinked
concepts of the body, the border, and the nation-state, this book
interrogates the various ways in which northern European states
grapple with challenges wrought by globalisation, neoliberalism,
and climate change. Reflecting the current global fascination with
all things Nordic, this text examines the light and dark sides of
the region as seen through the television screen, demonstrating
that series such as Occupied, Trapped, and The Bridge have much to
teach us about world politics. This book will be of interest to
those interested in geopolitics, national identity, and the
politics of popular culture in: Scandinavian studies, media/screen
studies, IR/political science, human/cultural geography, sociology,
anthropology, cultural studies, and communication.
