The success of the Nordic welfare state is well known, but the key
drivers of its remarkable expansion are not. This book explores the
relationships between citizens that constitute the normative
groundwork of Nordic societies, arguing that the quality of
relations steers welfare development. Chapters explore relations of
reciprocity, trust and equality that characterize the relational
Nordic welfare state. Through an interdisciplinary approach, expert
contributors consider the establishment and growth of welfare
institutions in Nordic countries and evaluate the neoliberal
challenge that these institutions have faced since the 1980s. This
book reveals how and why Nordic societies may find a path of
balanced and sustainable development. Timely and insightful, this
book will be indispensable for scholars and students of social and
political sciences, as well as jurisprudence, especially those
interested in welfare states. Contributors include: M. Berg, S.
Blomgren, P. Borioni, S. Hanninen, M. Jokela, P. Kettunen, M.
Kivipelto, T. Kotkas, P.H. Kristensen, K.-M. Lehtela, K. Lilja, E.
Moen, M. Perlinski, P. Saikkonen, S.F. Schram, K. Tuori, N.
